Like Mike I am a bit young to comment on the accuracy of the movie. As Mr. Kent said Mr. Roberts was a very good movie but I really did'nt know how good it was untill my hitch in the navy. If you can get the movie " To Hell And Back " it is the life of Audi Murphy during the war and as he plays himself I would think it should be accurate. As for John Wayne great actor, have seen all his movies 3 or 4 times. My wife has been in love with him for ever or at least for the 48 years we have been married.
