really great clip. Not too often you see that many B-25s in one shot.

Right?! And all done with real aircraft in the days long before CGI. Mass tactical take off! It had been so long since I've seen this movie that I'd forgotten all about it. Makes me want to build a B-25 from the bomb group where Heller served.

Why did someone leave my ambulance on the side of the runway???

I don't think I've seen this movie.

Catch -22… everybody knows the phrase… I’ve never read the source novel, but would love to. Like I said, I saw the movie once, decades ago. It’s dark humor, and quite offbeat. Remember how folks thought that Pulp Fiction was so original for telling the story out of sequence of time occurrence? Well 25 years earlier this movie and Slaughterhouse Five did just that. I think that I need to see if I can find if Catch-22 is available on streaming currently…. :hmm:
