U.S. Army Air Forces Produced this Short Film in 1944 to Educate Flight Crews on How to Survive in the Jungle. Survival in adverse conditions is never an easy task, but it has certainly become easier since the invention of the Internet.

“In this World War II military training film, a B-25 crew bails out over the jungle, and the pilot is separated from the rest of of his crew. The two groups of soldiers must survive until they can meet up and be rescued. The pilot does almost everything wrong, and the rest of his crew does almost everything right. We learn, by both bad and good example, how to survive in the jungle.”

“This film dramatizes the survival of the crew of a downed military aircraft in the jungle. The film features Van Heflin as Lieutenant Lynn Harrison. Produced by the First Motion Picture Unit during World War II.”
