    Decision Before Dawn w/ Richard Basehart, Gary Merrill, Oskar Werner, O.E. Hasse, Hans-Christian Blech, Wilfrid Seyfarth and Hildegard Knef. This movie also has a greatfully so--short appearance by Klaus Kinski--who is the "whining soldier" This movie also used the real deal when it came to everything you see such as--real German uniforms, weapons, vehicles, awards, rubble and such. Most important of all--all of the German Soldiers in it--had been WWII German Soldiers and they wore their own uniforms and such. One interesting thing on this excellent movie that easily got my eye-was the fact they they used several MP-43's (STG-44s) in it--which is my all-time most favorite weapon.
    This image is near the end of the movie and features Basehart (Lt. Rennick) and Werner (Happy--Karl Maurer)

    I discovered this movie about 10 years ago and its one of my favorites. Everything about it is very real and detailed and has the feel of the real time.
