Twelve O'Clock High

Directed by Henry King

With Gregory Peck, Hugh Marlowe, Gary Merrill, Millard Mitchell and Dean Jagger

In the early days of daylight bombing raids over Germany, General Frank Savage must take command of a 'hard luck' bomber group. Much of the story deals with his struggle to whip his group into a disciplined fighting unit in spite of heavy losses, and withering attacks by German fighters over their targets.
