I was 13 years old when Combat hit the tv screen. I'm 73 now and I STILL enjoy watching these episodes. The battle and bombardment scenes were top notch, the acting was superb, and the stories, whether about battle situations or human interest were just nothing less than excellent. Maybe that's why I still watch the show here on You Tube

I remember watching this as a kid back in 1963 and being scared to death that Cage would be discovered to be an American soldier when he attempted to cross the bridge with the baby and then being scared again when Saunders and the rest got caught in that artillery barrage. To watch a show like this as a little kid was quite an experience. You live through the episode, you get scared, you get happy, you almost cry. Looking back, it was a privilege to feel all of that by just watching a great TV show.

Show was ahead of its time. Expert writing. Acting.

One of my favorite Combat episodes ever! This is one of the episodes I remember watching as a ten year old. Made a big impression on me then. Sixty years later, still a great show.

I absolutely idolized this wonderful program I began watching the series in 1962 I am now 70 Years Old and Im so happy that YOU TUBE is running all the episodes again May God Bless all the actors Vic Morrow the finest actor in the world Rick Jason like wise Peirre Peabody Carter and Kirby all of which I love and admire so much MAY GOD BLESS THE COMBAT TV SHOW

Best episode of S1! You know that baby brought them so much hope and joy!

The more of these episodes I watch the more I realize how great an actor Vic Morrow really was.

I watched this with my dad. I was 7 when it debuted. My dad enjoyed it because it was a tribute to the infantry and not the glamorous flyboys. After the show, he'd spread out a map of 1944 Europe and we'd trace the areas shown in the show that episode. I'll always be grateful to the show and my dad for teaching me about WWII.

I watched shows like this and others as a kid growing up, they inspired me to be in the US Army. I later got to live my dream and gave our country 38 years of my life! Not everybody gets to live out their dream!

Vic morrow as Sargent Saunders is excellent and flawless and consumate You can never find a actor like him today and forever I loved him as a kind before and today nearing 65 year I really loved and missed him very much His acting as Sargent Saunders is real genius He is a true legend and more famous than the idiotic John landis

Lately now I have been watching one episode after another and I think I am getting more out of them than ever before....When you yourself have been a Soldier, and you cross many bridges through this life of ours, you look at a show like this from a far different perspective than you did as a small boy watching it...This show is rich....It is like old gold that just got rubbed off to sparkle yet again for for this Soldier, and I value these episodes, and lessons, more than ever...

Vic Morrow was a perfect fit for his role as Sgt. Saunders loved him on this show he had grit guts and compassion all the characteristics of a great leader !!

Really enjoyed this episode, seeing tough as nails Sergeant Saunders with the baby just melts my heart!!!!

This was one of my favorite shows when I was growing up. These episodes bring back fond memories of watching TV with my dad.

Vic Morrow as Sgt. Saunders: Perhaps the most truly enduring character in television history. I am watching in sequence again after 50 years and appreciate it more than I ever could have then.

I never forget all TV series of Combat every Saturday night 7 pm. Now I'm 52 years old. I start watching combat 6 year old. 1974. Now I'm happy to recall watching again.. I love this series. Staring always Vic Morrow & Rick Jason as a 2 lieutenant. I never forget this 2 guy.

A great episode. Everybody winds up risking his life for the baby and one soldier actually gets killed. The ending is a tear-jerker. No one says anything but much is conveyed through the acting.

Every actor cast in these episodes are terrific. There are no small roles.the cast speaks with their eyes and the director and actors take their time very different from rushed episodic network TV of today.

One of the best hour long dramas ever produced , almost a full hour of story, instead of twenty four plus minute of commercials and thirty-seven minutes of drama .

I was born 1956. Growing up a lot of us had dads and uncles that were in WW2. I watched this show all the time. Me and my friends used to play Combat with wooden weapons our dads whittled or carved out of boards for us.

Vic Morrow is the man.

"One more for the Road" [1963] First Season; Episode #29. When I saw this Classic Episode I realized that there is more to life than just war...The Baby represents "LIFE" and the Soldier represents "STRUGGLE, DEATH"...This is what made Combat such a unique Series. There are so many neat scenes with Cage and Sgt. Saunders with the baby you wonder in the back of your mind that under extreme conditions: "God" is still in control...The writing is excellent even if something like this never happened...The innocence of a baby, the raging madness of a war. Mankind must overcome it's violence and Killing...This cute little Baby shows that there is still hope for the Human Race...Glenn E. Smith Jr.,01/31/2015, Saturday, Vietnam War Veteran...>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

loved that mg sound.poor baby,one of my favourite episode in this series.combat always alive through time.

Oh, yes. THANK YOU to the person who made this possible! I have been watching this and 12 o'clock High on a daily basis! Thanks again! All these comments are years old, except a few. I wish it were possible to download these episodes. I'd even purchase DVD's if necessary. I don't want these to "go away".

What a wonderful child.......they all are

One of the the Greatest programs in TV history and always will be !...Vic Morrow (sgt.saunders) a great natural actor ! Loved Cage ! Combat ! One of the Best !!

I really love this show! The theme song with the explosions and the announcer with gravely voiced saying COMBAT! brings back a lot of good memories!

2 new guys in the squad this time and one of them actually survived the episode. That's rare !!

One of my favorites. Vic was a really great actor. He is missed.

Of all the Combat episodes, this is the Best . :)

Saunders is rough and tough but, he has a heart made of gold and Caje is a GENIUS.

Thank you so much for posting the best show ever, Combat, power packed with life lessons and illustrated sermons for us in these perilous times, to inspire us to keep on going and to not give up.

MAY GOD BLESS YOU TUBE Thank You from the bottom of my heart for running all these wonderful (153) Episodes of the finest TV show in history "COMBAT" !!!!! I adore this show with those irreplaceable great stars Im 70 years old now and became a serious fan as a little boy back in 1962 63 at its beginning Incredible TV Show with the finest actors in the world today My favorite has to be the Great Sgt Chip Saunders may he rest in peace I loved and cherished all the stars

For me, the best episode of this marvellous TV Series. Greetings from Brazil.

Sarge is so macho and tough but he sure has a heart and it melted with that baby

Saunders in his constant battle between being a soldier and being a human. Great poignant ending.

Love this episode!❤ Not seen it since I was a kid.

I watched this show growing up and I am 72 years old.

KZfaq is just amazing to bring back these shows.

I use to love Combat when I was a kid. This episode was in 1963, I was five years old in 1963 and I'm 54 now. The babies used have to be about 49 or 50 years of age now.

Rest in Peace, Pierre. You were a fine addition to a great show.

This episode is so touching my heart. Sgt Saunders and everyone else should be living until now..

Don't ya just love the way Sarge snaps up his rifle and shoves his helmet down his forehead when he knows that his guys have just seen the big tough guy being a softie? Still, when Sarge shoves that helmet down, mess with him at your peril!

One more great example of the acting skills of Vic Morrow. I found this episode particularly moving when I remember how Vic actually met his death in a helicopter accident on the set of "The Twilight Zone Movie." He was actually carrying two little children in his arms, a little boy, and a little boy. All three died at the scene. This was a tragic foretelling of a life taken much too soon. But thank God we still have his wonderful performances to remember on film, forever. RIP, Vic Morrow, Renee Shinn Chan, and Myca Dinh Le.

This brings back a good memory of my best friend, and my youngest while she was still a baby. My friend was a street wise kind of guy. Had the reputation of being one of the toughest characters in town. Even had the obligatory broken nose as a testament to his toughness, and regular fighting. I came to my work place one day to get something from the store, I worked at a little neighborhood store in the worst neighborhood in town. My friend Kim was in the back parking lot talking with 3 or 4 very young wannabe tough guys. As I was getting my kiddo out of her car seat this pair off hands came out from behind me and grabbed my baby out of my hands. I had a fist doubled up and pulled back as I turned around, but it was no threat, it was friend Kim. He started said "Hi." to me then held my baby above his head and started talking to her. I looked over at Kim's tag along buddies. They all stared with very confused looks on their faces. Here was a guy they more or less idolized for being so tough, for his reputation of being the kind of guy you don't mess with, and he had forsaken their company to play with a baby.

Wow, what a great episode. Very good writing, very good acting and very good directing. Was truly touched by this episode.

Television sets, even black and white, were still not household commons in my country during my elementary school days. Those were the days my cousins and classmates who had TV used to tell stories about COMBAT. I got to watch very few episodes and I don't even remember which, watching them every little chance I get. Now at 70, it's good we have KZfaq and all the advances in technologies. Thanks to the tech people for the internet. Now, I've found some of my favorite episodes watching the series. This is one of them.

"I don't care if you think I've got a point or not!! That's an order." Saunders GI classicism.

Ironic that Vic carried the baby into gods arms and 17 years later would carry two other children and himself into his arms. A terrible tragedy. RIP Mr Morrow.

Great episode, I could only imagine having to care for a baby behind enemy lines, Favorite childhood military series , one of the reasons I joined the Army, Vic Morrow made a great squad leader , I would have made him a E-6 Staff Sgt instead of an E5 Buck Sgt, every squad leader we had in every company over 4 years was Staff Sgt E6. In my 60's and Now I understand why my dad only liked to watch the all of his old westerns which I now watch as well!

The real good old American soldiers, Thank you.

great Episode,, the day to day struggles and tragedies of war...., but for a breif moment,, that baby brought some happiness into there lives.

It made my heart warm. The baby's real mother must have been beside him during photographing

I'm watching this again,it just hit me that VIC MORROW DIED WITH TWO CHILDREN,tears running down my face like a kid,thinking he left with two little angels,gives new meaning to this show after the fact,what a world

Thank you for bringing back Vic Morrow and company. From the Philippines.

Love this show now more than ever im 64 and i started watching it when i.was 5.or 6.years old 👍

I grew up watching the show too. Fell in love with the Sarge and Kirby. My first real 'crushes'. I never forgave the network for not bringing the guys home. We invested so much in their lives overseas, it wasn't fair that we didn't get to see if they got home okay. I grew up to be a fanfic writer. I wrote a story that brought them back to the states. Funny how life goes in a circle. lol. You'll be glad to know, Sarge got a girl who worked on the Manhatten Project. She's just perfect for him and a redhead. I always got the impression...he kinda liked redheads.

Military Lessons learned from COMBAT! #14) Don’t be surprised if your gruff sergeant turns out to be the most compassionate human being in the world. Saunders proved his essential decency, caring nature, resilient spirit, and honest tough-love compassion many times in this series. I have by now watched nearly every episode here.

I love that the nun who takes the baby at the end says something in French, and Saunders, who doesn't know French, replies "I know you will." That's the perfect end to this story.

This tv series was my main motivation to take three years of German Language training in high school (1967-1970 a skill set that served me well during my cold war tour of duty in Nuremberg Germany 1976-1979)

I started watching about 9 years old in 64. This show made a impression on me, I have been fascinated by WW 2 ever since. At 67, there is still much to learn.

Thanks to the series for showing what cicumstances warriors endured & what warriors had to do.

Just started watching!wow,it's addictive & timeless!!!

I finally DID it! I searched ALL the episodes from the first, looking for when Kirby finally got his BAR! He was complaining about it in early episodes. He was supposed to get the BAR when their BAR man was killed around episode 8, I think. He was the ammo bearer. He knew how to service and use the weapon. They devoted a third of an episode as Kirby extolled the virtures of the Squad Automatic that surely HE would inherit. Then they dropped the issue for 10 or 15 episodes. Now, right here, at Episode 29, he "blink" appears with the BAR! Wow. My father was the BAR man during the Korean War, so this has been a "mission" for me. No explaination for the delay. He just pops up with it. Dad said that his shot so fast it was almost like a "single shot weapon" on full automatic. You could barely save any of the rounds in the 20 round magazine if you squeezed the trigger on full auto. "It cut things in half," he said. The armorer "took good care" of Dad's weapon he said. Good to know that in episode 29, Kirby finally gets his wish. Now, you guys sit back down and let me watch this masterpiece of early TV drama.

Imagine the love in the Sarges heart and the men , after seeing what they’ve saw ,and not being able to trust anything or anyone! And to be able to save something so pure ! Very touching! 🙏🏻🇺🇸

The sarge as tough as he is melts with a baby in his arms . I would too , that's what makes him so likable .

Sgt. has some deep emotional battles. Excellent.

Great Vic.👍💎💎💎💎💎

The good Samaritan comes to mind. They did the right thing. Interesting that the baby is German and the discussion they have. Good story.

Watched the re-runs abt 1970. Loved it then, and I love it now. I was stationed in CA when Vic Morrow, and the 2 Vietnamese children were killed in the accident. May the 3 of them 4ever RIP.❤ Vic played a soldier vy well 4A sailor.

Even men melt down I have taken in 8 and adopted two in my name. There is more to life than Money ,Good men and women show their hearts by helping others and taking in the weak, the crippled and ones that need guidance in this world. I praise the Men and Women that have shown thier hearts to all.. In short May God Bless us All Amen.

I own all the seasons of Combat, I love this series. This best episode in Combat, it funny hard ass stg Saunders soft at the end of the episode. I am 50 i discovered this show as a teenager my Ralph showed me the series and I was hooked.

As a little girl i had one brother that was glued to the tv screen watching this show. While the others were playing there we were side by side watching the best show I've ever seen... still am 🙂

Touching ending. Thanks for sharing!

21:01 Give Vic Jr. a hat. LOL!! Bless your heart, Saunders, you ol' softy.

It tunrnsout that the amirika armmy is very, very gentle towards human children extraordinary babies. You are the best amirican armyinthe world.

Doc#, Doc#2, Billy and Kirby and Shecky Green from season 1 are the only ones still living.

At the very end, the "bonne sœur" (nun) says" don't worry, we'll take good care of him". Saunders understood the idea if not the words. Indeed, a perfect ending. Another epic épisode. Thank you for the upload.

Combat one of my favorite TV shows when I was a kid back in the 60's. I used to watch it on the weekends at around 5pm. Ahh, the good old days when life was simpler with no mobiles or PC's.

Just a really outstanding episode. C'mon--if you're not a sucker for a baby, there's something wrong with you.

I wonder what a real Sarge from the big one would have thought? Jeez once these guys went in weren’t they there till the end ? Man these guys went through hell ! God bless them ! And all Vets ! From the clerks to the doctors to the nurses ! Everyone one who’s ever put a uniform on for our Country ! God bless you all ! 🙏🏻🇺🇸

Love this ... esp. because Caje has such a big part in it! :)

Caj is a really good soldier. Could have used a man like that in my squad in Vietnam.

I just starting watching this show I can't believe how good Combat is!!

If I had a quarter for every time Saunders told Kirby to shut up.

Nice move and touching my heart this episode

Love that baby. War is HELL on the young and the old.

Gracias por la publicación, son joyas de nuestra historia. El sargento Sanders inolvidable personaje.

Great dramatic patriotic music accompanied by the marching rifles of those who fought for our constitution of freedom, all reflecting how Jesus the Man of War carries us through the war of life to heaven and not hell, as one would a baby, safe in everlasting arms, if we turn to Him to be one more for the road.

Excellent.

That is amazing, apple tree again.

Watched this growing up and dad always made us turn it down. Maybe the shooting reminded him of his WW2 days.

The baby is so cute
