The Fighting 69th - Pat O'Brien - Robert Preston - Ralph Bellamy - Lux Radio Theater
The plot centers on misfit Jerry Plunkett, a tough-talking New Yorker who displays a mixture of bravado and cowardice. Caught up in patriotic fervor when the United States enters WWI, he proves to be a coward in battle. The chaplain, Father Francis P. Duffy attempts to reform Plunkett. Sgt. "Big Mike" Wynn loses both his brothers in action due to Plunkett's blunders.
The Fighting 69th (1940) is an American war film starring James Cagney, Pat O'Brien, and George Brent. The plot is based upon the actual exploits of New York City's 69th Infantry Regiment during World War I.
