Do NOT waste your time with the newer remake of 'Thirty Seconds over Tokyo, stick with the original starring Van Johnson, Robert Mitchum and Spency Tracy. FAR superior.

Do not watch Ted Turner’s colorized version of “Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo.” They have the Army Air Corps uniforms in Marine Corps forest green.
