Good movie as it showed that tank up close and personal. At the end, when they met up with allied troops, I noticed they showed a Grant that had a welded hull - whether any made it to North Africa is another story as all I have seen had riveted hulls.

I think it was on imdb.com that one guy said the movie was filmed near Yuma, AZ and that he had found where the fort was and picked up a few 50 cal cases. Cool.
