George W. Hill's Blockbuster. The great Lon Chaney was actually named an honoree Marine by the Academy. The service men loved his performance so much as the no-nonsense Sergeant O'Hara.
William Haines who portrayed the brash George "Skeet" Burns was riding high as one of Hollywood's most popular young Stars after the enormously successful BROWN OF HARVARD.
Eleanor Boardman, the new "Mrs. King Vidor", had become one of MGM's Top leading ladies in her own right. Having recently supported John Gilbert in Vidor's swashbuckler BARDELYS THE MAGNIFICENT.
Other than Clarence Brown's FLESH AND THE DEVIL with Gilbert and Greta Garbo, TELL IT TO THE MARINES was MGM's biggest money-maker of the whole year!
This was supposed to have been out on DVD at least two or three years ago? We are still waiting.

What a nice clip. William Haines (or Billy as he was called by his friends) was a man and actor way ahead of his time. He gave up a acting career for his love of his life, Jimmy. I often read that William Haines was drafted in WWII. Does anyone know what branch of the military he served. What about him being gay and serving in the military at that time.
