Facts about
Film debut of Michael Callan.
John Wayne criticized what he perceived to be a "lack of patriotism" of this film, saying "How they got Gary Cooper to do that one, to me, at least, it simply degrades the Medal of Honor.

Gary Cooper was very ill during production, and was actually filming against the advice of his doctors.
