I plan on introducing my grand kids to “Combat” when they are old enough (mature) to begin to understand how deep and wide those story lines really are.

Capital idea. ‘Combat’ wasn't strictly a bang bang, shoot ‘em up gory war show. It showed ordinary men caught up in a hellish reality of death and killing interspersed with human stories of men at war.

Looking back on the show there was a barely contained
subtext that “Combat’’ was an anti war show. Vic Morrow, off screen was a pacifist.
