9 years old back then, 68 years old now, and I still love watching the episodes.

I'm in my 60's too. I was a boy and watched it with my Dad. It was special watching with him. He used to say to me with a smile, "the sergeant, he watches out for his squad". Just me opinion, but I think no actor cast for a role did it better than Vic Morrow. He has a couple of Emmy's for best actor in a recurring series. Kirby is the last living cast member!

The learning curve in this one? A former tank driver with claustrophobia learns to overcome it as he drives a German tank in a tank dual in close-in combat. Wonderful, magnificent, superb, just plain Wow! Combat was the best ever!

I just love this series!!!! I can watch the episodes over and over again. These characters immortal!!!

I watch it as a boy 7years old now iam retired at 60 years old the series is still the best can beat any tv show today Again Vic morrow is superb as Saunders the story the script the music excellent Combat is a real masterpiece

Loved seeing Frank Ghorshin ..funny impressions...also as The Riddler in the 1960s Batman TV show

Love this old show, watched it when I was a kid, thanks for sharing them :)

I want to Thank You SO much for posting all these great episodes. Takes me back to childhood, watching Combat when it first ran in prime time. Also, I enjoy the sometimes lively conversations these great old shows spark to life. Thanks again, Randy

loving how side skirts and a black cross really does make any tank look german. a newly discovered gem for me

I used to follow Combat in brisbane QLD:(AUS) in 1963-64 and 1965. Now i am 72 years of age. Living in Norway. Seeing Combat again. Brings back a heap of memorys. Thanks Mate. for posting.

It’s amazing how much France and Germany resembles Southern California LMAO! Combat was my favorite show as a kid.

Excellent Television Mr. Gorshin Was an excellent dramatic actor And a very hilarious comedian

The Hell Machine, another masterpiece of Combat at its ultimate best!

It was also broadcast in Japan in the 1960s. Of course, the voice actors said the lines in Japanese, so it wasn't until the 1990s that I first heard the voices of Vic Morrow and Rick Jason. Perhaps because I was used to the voice of a voice actor, I was shocked in a sense, saying, "Eh! Such a voice!" I have some on VHS and DVD, but I'm lucky to see them on KZfaq now. By using Google translation.

I love this show I grew up watching it at my grandma's house in the 70 on channel 44 in Venice Florida and then after combat went off I watch Creature Feature

Frank Gorshin by far the best impressionist! He starred in two Combat episodes: - The Hell Machine (1965) … Pvt. Gavin - The Medal (1963) … Wharton. Thank You Mr. Gorshin. RIP.

I remember watching Combat when I was 5 years old when my Dad was stationed in Ft Benning, Georgia....I liked this tv show because my father was a Decorated Veteran of World War II, Korea and Vietnam...RIP Dad...

Here comes the M41 Walker Bulldog. Love the side shield to make it look like a Panzer Tank. Lol! Great show tho.

My grandfather served in 3 different battles / conflicts in north Africa in WWII. He received 3 bronze stars,and never told us when he was alive. There were and are many men like him in every war. These are the anchors to winning.

Eu via sozinho a noite essa série quando tinha 9anos. 🇧🇷🇧🇷

Wow! I remember this from when I was young. Didn’t know who Frank Gorshin was then. Later got to know him as an incredible comedian and impressionist.

I'm from Indonesia, this is my favorite series when I was little. Thank you for posting

I watched this series as a 6 year old. Interesting production note: The series was largely filmed on a Winery in Central California with orchards throughout. The owners agreed to explosions only if the crew would blow up a tree stump for each blast. Many of the blasts are actual tree stumps being destroyed. Another side note: Saunders hates guns in real life. Rick Jason brought rifles to the set and would offer to take him shooting when not filming. Vic Morrow always declined. Another side note: Little John always removes his helmet inside a Church. When a new Director told him not to he had a rage fit and almost quit. They left him [and his helmet] alone after that.

Watched it as a kid. Loved it and the Rat Patrol. Something about these old shows. Not like today all soap operas and how much T&A and swearing can they get away with. You know Not 1 actor in this episode use a single swear word, not 1 !!! And it was still good. Just could never figure out at the end why Sgt. Saunders, smart as he was, didn't load and fire the tanks main gun when they pulled them out of the ditch. Could have destroyed it in one shot of course that would have meant the Riddler wouldn't have been able to make all those nice circles in the dirt driving the tank around but it would have been exciting to see them fire the main gun and take out that tank. Still a great show every week. Combat and the Rat Patrol. Where did time go????

I remember me and my two brothers used to love watching this family don't look at TV anymore togethera I miss them good old days

Those trees and background in the Starting moments have featured in so many US films they deserve an Oscar of their own.

thanks for pulling us out, here's a reward from Mr Thompson.

How refreshing to see all the episode's exterior scenes filmed at Thousand Oaks -- truly "opening up" the show -- and not on the over-used, already-seen-from-every-angle Franklin Canyon Reservoir and MGM backlots. The added production expense and time that resulted in the aerial views pays off magnificently. Act III: When the German officer's car finally outran the tank and Saunders sprayed the four occupants with waist level firing of his uncanny Thompson (accurate from any firing position and at any distance ; never requires reloading), the camera clearly shows the terminal damage to the enemy's radio on board. A key point. Yet, viewers don't witness whether all the fired-upon Germans' wounds were instantly fatal. In a similar, real life, war-time situation Saunders would have approached the vehicle and administered the coup de grace -- a grisly measure to insure information of their tank being commandeered by Americans isn't blasted all over the enemy's radio broadcast system. Presenting it "delicately," perhaps off camera, we could have heard the gunshot(s) from Saunders' pistol, "finishing off" the wounded. I suggest "off camera" because the fatal elimination -- and at point-blank range -- would be too graphic for many viewers, including too many parents sure to complain about disturbing their impressionable children's entertainment viewing. A fault: The grisly wounded American officer would have been experiencing shock by Act IV. And been less communicative. OR screaming for Saunders to administer a morphine shot. I like 'The Hell Machine''; it's within my personal "Combat!" Top Ten. Again, on behalf of fans, "thank you" to provider GR160289.

Este capítulo no lo había visto hasta ahora de esta mítica serie. Simplemente genial el mismo.

What happened to the crew of these shows? The actors, directors, writers all phenomenal talent! I know they have passed but they should have taught their children how to write and act. Hollywood does not make shows like this anymore. Shot in 6 days and with a low budget. Amazing!

Frank Gorshin, really played this part well with the worried facial expressions, and anxiety of driving the tank.

Frank Gorshen was in season one of this show. His second time on combat.

Excellent script, acting, direction and photography.

Gotta Love Frank Gorshin! Always plays the "weasel", kind of scared, "Tough Guy". Gorshin fills a niche that no other actor could quite provide. Gorshin is part of my lifetime of TV memories. Almost feel like I knew the guy...

Gavin's goggles are on upside down...but only part of the time. Still my favorite episode of the series.

Good story, love the use of props, must have been fun for the tank crews playing demolition derby.

Couldn't find any black tanker berets so they went with surplus navy caps, but I thought the Walker Bulldog in a skirt was a nice touch.

A simple plot yet so suspenseful! I bet the inspired scriptwriters summed their plot up in 2 sentences! Action packed at the end. What an adrenaline rush! It’s stories like these viewers rave about to their friends recommending to watch this particular episode.

I think he did the best impressions of Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas that has ever been done.

Love the jeeps. When I was stationed at Ft. Hood in 1979 with the 1st Cavalry division, the 2nd Armored and III Corps, they still had WWII era jeeps for us in the motorpool. Really fun to ride in but hard to get parts for at times.

I remember my Marine father watching Combat and yelling at the TV “Don’t bunch up!!!” Like a flash back…

Jeep tire runs over a mine, no damage to tire at all. Good quality American Rubber.

This was my first show when I was a child I saw about world war II. It is a great showman wish they would rerun it on TV

thank you so much, my favorite movies when i was 7 years old.

The tank dance, lol. So that's how crop circles happen. LMAO

My childhood memories are flooding back.

Well .... what can I say .... I am very impressed about this particular part of the whole series. I love the most this part of the two "dancing around" > "German" tanks, which prevented the German one of using its main gun !!!! That was so cool !!!! It was a great pleasure to watch it !!!!

Great show!!!! Watched it when I was growing up!!!!!! No shows today any better!!!!!!

These episodes keep me on the edge of my seat. Sgt. Saunders always makes the right decisions.

8 years old back than. Always cane in to watch - hasn't changed.

Amazing !!! Great movie, Excellent !!! The best action I´ve seen by far.

The episode ¨The Duel¨ also has a wonderful german tank as a Guest Star!

I remember when I lived in Gibraltar in the sixties my father used to watch COMBAT. Like most men at that time they had fought with the British Army, in WW2 ,and was in Regiment of with a high percentage of Irish Republic citizens. Over 100,000 from Eire fought to destroy Nazi Germany, and were treated very badly by the Republic Ireland Government, that many were forced to go back to Britain to get away from the hostility of their own Nation, after the war. Irish Goverment had a plan called operation starvation to exact revenge on their own citizens who fought against the Nazis. Please look it up. They were forgotten Hero’s.

Watched this show as a kid, then starting in my high school years I worked with my Dad in a machine shop manufacturing parts for these very same tanks! Also, Dad was a tank driver in WWll.❤

How does Saunders always get stuck with these basket cases? LOL!

that's M41 walker bulldog tank. love this film

This is was so magnificent had to watch it again

THE craziest episode yet! German tank drives up & crew keels over; captain happens to speak German with no accent even though badly wounded, comes to at right moment; Germans don't notice uniform, etc. - they would have been shot as spies for wearing enemy hats & stolen vehicle, ooh boy

Riddle me this: What does Gavin want to tell Sgt. Saunders when he's ordered to drive? *"NO TANKS!"*

THE BEST VIDEOS!!! I LIKED "COMBAT" VIDEOS!!! THANKS!!!

Could have grabbed that German staff car but that would have required moving the captain again. Would have made faster going once they did, though. Frank Gorshin was an Army veteran. He was assigned to Special Services, naturally.

I love fighting WW II in California amidst the Valley Oaks.

GREAT EPISODE!! LOVE COMBAT.

Oh no, the rascally Riddler! The Prince of Puzzlers piloting a purloined Panzer!

Its amazing that decades later the Dukes of Hazard filmed in that same part that was liberated from the nazis.

4:10 Saunders approaches the stalled tank right where the tank's coaxial or eyebrow MG could have ripped him in half. He'd have approached a buttoned-up tank from the rear.

My top two favorite Combat! episodes involve Saunders and German tanks.

That’s an M-41 Walker Bulldog Panzer! 🇩🇪

Combat was so full of unwritten history. Little did I know that after the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor they invaded Southern CA!!!

Watched it growing up! Great show even with today's standards! Too bad the tanks were actually American tanks, but still great!

I'm wAtching combat every Saturday night at my neighbors tv in between 1960.

What a great show better than half the stuff now the old sarge tuff as nails pity he accidentally died making a movie I remember Theis shows were on a Friday nights when I was 12 years old . Brian Perth Australia.

Now for some Rat Patrol!

Thank you for keeping full episodes of Combat on You Tube!

FranK G. complains every inch of the the way, I'm sure the SGT was happy not to have this guy on his squad.

The greatest movie is the best I am watching always from Philippines 🥰

i have the COMBAT lunch box

38:46 NEVER straddle the tow strap.

Awww his and her Panzers. How cute lol

Imperdible esta serie por canal.4 en nuestro el salvador querido esos anos 70tas un saludos desde el sur de california bendiciones camaradas de la 3/2 de artilleros

“Sounds like the accelerator linkage is hung up”! 🤣👌

When you are in a tight spot you have to keep a level head. Sometimes the most craziest ideas will work long enough to get further if you didn't. Saunders knew he didn't have a chance if they were on foot.

I love this show. A reminder of a time when there were shows on TV aimed toward Real Men. Not the soylent infused crap called "entertainment" nowadays

Fourth day in BingeWatch loved this series still do

He was a very good Impressionist. One of the top all-time.

Marvelous comments from Pakistan 🇵🇰🇵🇰💚

Esta es una de las series que mas me han gustado...

This was one of my favorite shows grew up in England never missed it when I new series came on we had two channels lol tv BBC1 and ITV wow it was awesome when BBC2 showed up Kirby was the man for sure 👍

keep em coming love combat

Great tv show from the 60s which I watched frequently as a kid. Other good war shows from the time: 12 O'Clock High and The Rat Patrol. Didn't know much about the geography of SoCal and Germany then as a do now, having visited both locales. Love that "Bavarian sagebrush" LOL !

Infantry patrolling against the skyline? They were not that silly.

LOVED THIS SHOW AS A KID

Thank you so much. Really enjoy it.

What a great movie. I love it. James

It's 1965 and a whole new generation of American young men is about to find out the real war is nothing like this.

1965 ,l am 7 years old now..combat my fv ..full memory

I always loved Frank Gorshin! Growing up in the 50's and 60's he seemed like an old friend. Played such a great variety of Characters. As a young man he could play an ageless character in such Classics as "The Untouchables" and more. He is missed...

loved this show as a kid!

I thought I’d not seen this show before, but as soon as the title music came on I recognised it straight away.

Not the series’ finest hour. Who needs a story when you have a tank, I guess.
