Doing His Best for His Men and Country

 It's the Duke and Bob ready to take whatever the war throws at them, a still from They Were Expendable (1945).  Nifty scene, but the blog just is not set up to display the photo properly.  Shucks.


 So, we will just have to enlarge the best part of the photo for close review.  Why, surprise, it's Bob Montgomery!  No, wait.  It's Lt. John 'Brick' Brickley, not looking nearly as spiffy as he was in his Navy whites in the bar scene at the beginning of the movie. 

What he does look like is a man accepting his fate, determined to do his best for his men and country. 

Good job, Mr. Montgomery.
