If anyone hasn't already seen it, I highly recommend the version of "All Quiet on The Western Front" Starring Ron Howard and Ernest Borgnine. Yeah, I know how could Ron Howard ever be a good fit in a war movie. I thought the same thing until I watched the movie and then i realized Ron Howard was the perfect fit for the character.

Richard Thomas played the lead (Paul). He and Borgnine were wonderful as was much of the cast.

Yes. You are correct. It was Richard Thomas aka John Boy Walton. He looked like Gov. Dukakas in uniform but I thought that fit the story perfectly.
