The result is a spotty rehash of "A Yank in the R.A.F.," better in some of its air-raid sequences but an inferior job in general. Right now, those bombs don't look fictitious enough...

Development of the arc-shielding coating by Milwaukee's A. O. Smith Corp. at last gave arc welding the reliability it needed...
