The Rat Patrol: The Complete Series



IT WAS GREAT!!
I purchased "The Rat Patrol" for my husband about a week and a half ago. He loved the show when it aired back in the 60's. He is enjoying it just as much now. One thing about these DVD sets - you can watch them at your own pace. I've watched it in bits and pieces and I've enjoyed some of the episodes myself. If you were a fan of the "Rat Patrol" you will definitely enjoy this set! It sure brings back memories! I give it 5 stars!!!!!

Flying across the desert sands in jeeps armed with fifty caliber machine guns, the Rat Patrol could strike quickly, and were capable of delivering extreme firepower from almost any angle.

The Allied invasion of Sicily and Italy, would not have been possible without a secure footing in North Africa. But in the grand scheme of World War II, the war in North Africa is often overlooked. The Rat Patrol is the only prime time American series to be set exclusively in the North African theater. Created by Tom Gries, this fast paced, action packed drama, is all about delivering excitement, suspense, and thrills. The Rat Patrol consists of Sergeant Sam Troy (Christopher George), and privates Mark Hitchcock (Lawrence Casey) and Tully Pettigrew (Justin Tarr) of the US Army, and Sergeant Jack Moffitt...
