3/10
Juvenile war series

The Rat Patrol was a half hour TV series set in the North African campaign of World War II where a mixed group of American and British soldiers had a kind of commando unit in two jeeps. The jeeps were fitted with machine guns and they dd all kinds of missions against the Germans.

Christopher George an American sergeant the group and the Germans were personalized by Eric Braeden. Braeden was a civilized man, a professional soldier and no Nazi. He was treated as one professional to another.

Notwithstanding the fact I doubt that Allies and Germans got on a name basiss with each other, I had to laugh at the idea that the Rat Patrol and their refitted jeeps gave serious battle with hose monster German tanks. The show wss ludicrous.

I'm surprised it lasted two seasons.
