3.0 out of 5 stars Fair storyline, good basic facts, excellent airplane photos, August 30, 1999

This review is from: Bombers B-52 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Ephrim Zimbalist Jr and Karl Malden portray a wing commander Colonel and Master Sergeant crew chief respectively with the Colonel chasing the crew chiefs daughter as a love interest. This would never be tolerated, (fraternization), in the real Air Force, but it makes for conflict in the story line. Excellent footage of B-52's on the ground and in the air. Reasonably accurate portrayal of the stress and strain of life in the late 50's Air Force. I was a "SAC weeney" from 1963 until 1979 and it brought back a lot of memories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bombers B-52; SAC The Way It Was, September 3, 2000

If you served in the Strategic Air Command as I did, you'll appreciate the movie footage of our Cold War Warriors in action and their tangled lives behind the scenes. A great retrospective about SAC and the way it was, versus the way it is now.
