I found the background music information posting on the veiledchamber page (accessible by clicking their name above). It is "Nigel's Trip" from Farewell to the King by Basil Poledouris. Thanks very much for that information.

A great movie. When I first saw it I wondered why Robert Montgomery was operating the boat unassisted in many scenes with his PT boat underway (compared with John Wayne, usually shown at a mock-up of the helm), then I found that he was a naval officer who had commended PT boats in World War Two. I would like to repeat the request for the name of the song featured in this clip, and if possible the artists performing it.

"They Were Expendable" is one of my favorite movies, always crediting John Ford's directing. But I now realize that it is Joseph H. August's brilliant cinematography which makes this film's images so indelible, every scene a masterpiece. Thank you for posting this.
