The Rear Gunner

Produced by the U.S. Army Air Forces in cooperation with Warner Brothers; featuring Lieutenants Burgess Meredith and Ronald Reagan; directed by Ray Enright. The first few minutes of the film are affected by recurring image washout, which affects the soundtrack as well. The source of the problem is the original print since the soundtrack fade occurs about a second after the picture fade, matching the 20-frame sound advance on 35mm film. (B/W, 1943, 26 min.)
