I remember watching the series, combat sergeant, and am relieved to find that I actually did ! I can find no one else who recalls it ! I believe one episode had to do with falcons trained by Arabs to attack and shred parachute canopies of pilots who had bailed out, after having been shot down , German or Allied alike. Sgt. Nelson teams up with A German to end the practice by using grenades to eliminate the birds. Each side had thought the other responsible for the murder of the helpless airmen. Am I close ? Anyone else recall an episode like that ? I also recall actual newsreel footage being inserted into the program, military combat photography. I was only about 8 years old, but already had A strong interest in the history of ww2 which remains with me today.
