Battleground. They share Longest Day and A Bridge too Far. Battleground is theirs alone. "Cadence Count" from Battleground is part of my "going to wargame convention" music. |

Agreed. The only "dedicated" film is "Battleground," a masterpiece that has depths to it many viewers may not appreciate. TVAG |

Now I have to find Battleground. Amazon and Roku both have it. Thanks for the recommendation! |

Agree with the assessment of "Battleground" as an excellent. I never realized they were glider troops. |

Battleground but only because BoB doesn't qualify. |

I have seen the first two Bill listed but never heard of Battleground. |

At the end of Battleground ( during the credits at the end)they are marching and the cadence has a line about fighting into the 1950s. |

And we won't get back 'til the end of the war In nineteen hundred and fifty four. |
