And my old mate Andy Devine who appeared in over 180 movies and series episodes besides being "Jingles" in Wild Bill Hickock for over 100 episodes.

I watched it religiously in the late 50's when shown here.

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)
