how many here remember this short-lived series from the 70s? I remember it was on CBS on Friday nights, and had Gene Reynolds and some other people from MASH involved with it. I remember it was about black Army soldiers in WW II. That's all I remember about it.

Kind of? Sort of? I would never have thought about it till I read your post, but it does sorta ring a bell with me!

I definitely don’t remember it from the original airings, but I have the series it’s not bad. It stars Stu Gilliam and features a young Garret Morris.

The series was not on the air very long and ran for only 12 episodes. Hilly Hicks was in this show, he is funny in a few episodes of The Bill Cosby Show as one of the high school students.
