The Long and the Short and the Tall
Based on Willis Hall's play. A British troop is out in the bush recording jungle and troop noises to be used by other troops to confuse the Germans. As they draw closer to the base camp, they find themselves further from radio range, until the only clear station they can get is a Japanese broadcast. They are currently only 10 to 15 miles from a Japanese camp! Unstable Private Bamforth, an outspoken "non-hero" who has nothing good to say about anyone, particularly Corporal Johnstone, adds to the tension (who holds an equal dislike for Bamforth). Each man's true colors emerge when they take a Japanese soldier as a prisoner.
