THE STORY: The play shows how a high-ranking officer in charge of an airplane squadron meets his agonizing problems of bombing certain European areas in order to get the most efficient results, rather than to please high-ranking Government officers some of whom place politics above practical considerations. The play is written with the utmost realism which, of course, includes a vast amount of legitimate comedy, together with dramatic suspense of a very high order.
A tremendously effective and deeply moving drama.
“A tingling play…trenchant drama.” —The New York Times.
“A wide-open, four-engine, hard-hitting job. It ranks in its impact with the two memorable dramas of World War I, What Price Glory? and Journey’s End.” —New York Daily News.
