U.S. Coast Guard WWII Color Film “Task Force” 1944
Released in 1944 by Warner Brothers in cooperation with the U.S. Coast Guard, “Task Force” is a Technicolor short film narrated by Jackson Beck. The film focuses around Coast Guard “Task Force” duty. Besides operational glimpses, the viewer is treated to a snapshot of the life of a Coast Guardsman on and off duty. While the film contains much documentary-style footage, some sections of the film are re-enactments and the scenario presented (in which the USCG battles a German U-boat and then lands troops on a Pacific Island) seems somewhat fanciful.
