Strategic Air Command - Anthony Mann (1955)

A 40s-style military procedural, but set during the Cold War. Begging able-bodied Americans to join up and keep America ready for those dirty Commies. Fate intervenes to that Jimmy Stewart can have the best of both worlds: dedication to his country and a happy home life. Flashes of Anthony Mann's visual sensibility come through during the bail-out scene and a brief shot of silhouetted airmen walking across the air field after completing a mission.
