Rather than the Television movie, "The Lost Battalion," I am trying to find where to download this most unusual docudrama (before there were docudramas).
There was an incident in World War I where an AEF battalion of the 77th Infantry Division became surrounded by the German Army for almost a week. When the Americans were relieved in early October 1918, the battalion's casualties were about 60 percent. Three of the survivors were awarded the Medal of Honor by Congress.
Okay, to my query. There was a movie made about this incident in 1919. Many of the cast had been members of the battalion and portrayed themselves. I have found references to this movie, but I cannot find any source from which I can download it.
Can anyone help me out?
