    Love these shows, grew up watching them on Saturday afternoons when I was a little boy. "Combat", "12 O'Clock High" and "Black Sheep Squadron", they all fed the dream of a little boy to become a Pilot. Now 35 years latter, 14 years in the Navy as a Naval Aviator and 6 more in the Army as a pilot, this show brings back the dreams. Showing them to my son now, and he can't get enough of them!

    What a wonderful series! I was just a kid when WW II ended, but remember the endless happy scenes in Grand Central Terminal when all the troops returned home from the war. On Armed Forces Day in 1946, I watched the 8thAAF fly up the Hudson River with a huge fighter escort, a scene to be remembered for a lifetime. I served 22 years in the Strategic Air Command, flying many 24hr missions during the Cold War and then some 160+ combat missions in Vietnam. After retirement, I worked on the Trident Submarine program for General Dynamics for some 5yrs, and would be the first to admit that the Navy's incredible ship has long since replaced the USAF as our primary line of defense. All of our generations were part of it together, dedicated to defending the greatest country ever. All of us were more than proud to have served our country. Thanks for bringing back so many memories!!

    This was the greatest TV series in the history of TV. Many of the episodes, hurriedly written and filmed on a tight TV production schedule, were better than many movies. I've enjoyed re-watching these. I am now 70, and recall watching them with my father, a WWII Navy vet, when I was in middle school. Brings back so many memories. Thank you to Jefke Peremans for uploading this superb series. Now I will re-watch them again from the beginning!

      The greatest TV series ? This wasn't better than The Twilight Zone, BONANZA, GUNSMOKE, The Jackie Gleason Show, The Carol Burnett Show, COLUMBO, KOJAK, etc..... Yes, 12 0'Clock High was a great show, but far from the best. I would, however, say it's the second best TV series to take place in World War II, only behind COMBAT!

    Thanks for uploading one of my favorite shows from the 1960's. My dad, who was a WW II veteran, n I watched it every week when it was originally broadcasted. It was also a bonding experience for us. A BIG plus was the film makers inserted actual war footage in the show. Still enjoy watching it now with a better understanding of the sacrifices of The Greatest Generation. Just watched this episode n was pleasantly surprised that Ahna Capri acted in this episode. She was one of the co-stars of the 1973 hit movie Enter the Dragon, starring Bruce Lee ! Small world !!! Kudos again.

    Thanks Jefke Peremans for making all 3 seasons accessible here on TH-cam, Like most everyone else Ive seen this series when I was way younger growing up in Southern California, I have loved vintage aircraft since I was a kid (am now 63), built models, went to airshows, have even visited Piccadilly Lily (the one from the tv series) which lives at Planes of Fame @ Chino. Have flown in a B-17 several times as well. Again thank you!

    Twelve O'Clock High was canceled mid-season in 1967. I don't know if they knew this would be the series finale when they filmed it, but it works pretty well in that regard, especially the last epilog of the series with General Britt walking alone looking to the B-17 above. Nice imagery!

    I have visited the airplane “graveyard” in Tucson and while there went aboard a B-17. Tight quarters, frightening lack of protection. Anyone who went up in that, or any other aircraft for that matter, was made of steel! Me, I would have to wear brown pants…

I was so inspired by the performances of the cast and the message of the series that I became and Air Force Pilot and later, an Army Master Aviator with service spanning from 1972-2012 ...

    Thank you very much for uploading this series! I have enjoyed them immensely! I remember watching this show starting when I was just 7 yrs. old and it was in syndication reruns. Every morning I would watch it and though I didn't really grasp the reality of it I fell in LOVE with the B-17 Flying Fortress! Then at 9 years old I got to see a REAL B-17 at an airshow and I wanted to take it home and keep it!
    Now I have many books on the B-17 and the Mighty Eight air force next to my wooden model of a B-17G in flight. When I get the chance in the future I am going to take a flight on the CAF B-17 TEXAS Raiders!

    This TV show made up for its cheesiness and primitive special effects, with pure entertainment. Even as a kid watching the show, I was amazed what Colonel Joe could do or was asked to do: bomber pilot one day, fighter pilot the next, special ops commando the next. I’m sure he whipped up a fine dinner at the mess when the crews returned home and still had time to race over to London and direct Winston Churchill’s famous speeches.

      ocket stuff ha ha. Different golden age. My first M-16 [mfg Mattel] was issued to me for Christmas [ironic?] when was about 10 or 12 by my parents. No red tip lol! I think it even had a grenade launcher...maybe?

    This was a great series. Unlike so many movies and series on WWII that focus on unrealistic, shoot-em-up action, this one focuses on personalities, human dramas, and psychological aspects of living through that war. It also made a lot of use of real archival footage for the bombing runs. So well done...

    I too would like to thank jefke peremans for uploading this series. It gave me an immense pleasure and a world of new info and perspective on the airmen who fought to protect freedom in the world. Although the last 1 1/2 seasons were of far lesser quality than the incomparable first with Lansing, I still saw all the episodes for completeness. I also think that both Burke and Johnson improved measurably over time, although the writing quality never rose to the first season level. Still, I would die for a series like this today, when sex and filth are all that sells.

    I have watched these episodes from first season all the way thru a couple times. and I always noticed when they were doing engine starts they began with #1 outboard on the port side and worked across to #4 starboard.
    On Wednesday Dec 16th I watched the NTSB analysis of the Dec 2019 B17G 909 crash part 1. The man pointed out that #3 engine inboard on the starboard side is ALWAYS started first as it has the generator that recharges the batteries. Then #4 and THEN over to #1 - outboard port, and lastly #2 inboard portside.
    Loved this series. Have developed a strong friendship with 5 people who's father and grandfather was a 17G pilot, 18 missions over Germany, shot down twice. Escaped once was a POW for several months till May 45.

    Jefke,
    Thank you for uploading this entire series. I watched the occasional episode when I was young back in the 1970's, and even though I was always interested in World War II aviation and history, and myself served in U.S. Naval Aviation during the 80's and 90's, I somehow never really got interested in Twelve O'Clock High until I happened across one of the episodes that you uploaded and discovered that you had the entire series on your channel, so I decided to go and start with the first episode and watch one every evening since. Well, I just got done with this final episode just now and I have thoroughly enjoyed every episode. I want to thank you again for sharing this series with us. It has become one of my favorites! Hope you are well, friend!

      Robert, I too love the B-17s. I got to see the Memphis Belle in Memphis many years ago, but I did not get into the plane. Years later, there was a B-17 named Liberty Bell that was making the festivals and air show circuits. People could buy a 45 minute flight on it. It cost me $250 (more or less), but it was worth the money. It was cramped and I could feel how close the crew must have felt on those long and dangerous missions over Europe. Sadly on a flight to an air show, the Liberty Belle crashed some years later and it was destroyed; but thankfully, the crew all came out safe.

    In 1964-65, Chris Robinson was on the Falcon studio's fencing team. We also had the Crawford family (Johnny and Bobby plus their father). Just sharing.

    This was one of many great tv shows that aired in the 60's. Others were COMBAT, The Outer Limits, Twilight Zone....Too bad that they don't them like they used to IMO.

    The only complaint I have about this series is it ended way to soon. Too bad it could not have gone on to the end of WW II. My Father-in-law was a crew chief on B-17's during WW II and after that on B-29's over Korea and also on the B-36 at. Carswell AFB,TX H also served until the Vietnam war before he retired. Had some interesting stories.

    It is correct , they show archive photos of bombing, they use the same bomb hits on almost every bombing and the same planes attacking. Constantly a P 47 is shown as a german firing at the bombers, and Stukas in formation allegedly being fighters. But I see this like a charm and a bit fun. They got this old vs new way of acting too, witch I find very entertaining. Of course Gallager is involved in far more than a Wing leader should be, and the B 17 are doing the job of all the British bombers. But the organization and way of fly is pretty well and accurate. This series is one of the best I have seen in this regard. I can not put my finger on it, but I love watching this

    Thank you Jefke Peremans for uploading the episodes from this show. In 1965 I was 10 yrs old and watched this show along with Combat and Rat Patrol. I was raised in an Air Force family(just Dad). He was in Combat Control that was his AFSC. Anyway I could have sworn that the last few episodes before the show ended Jack Lord was the CO. Was this episode really the end of the show?

    • @terryrussel523

      Jack Lord guest stared in two episodes in the second season. One as Gallagher's older brother, a Col. in the infantry in North Africa, and as a disgraced former CO of the 918th commanding infantry guarding an air base in Italy.
      Yes. This was the last episode, which Really disappointed me at the age of 9. As kids we watched all those shows as well. My Dad and uncles all served in the ETO and Pacific. They watched with us sometimes but said little about their experiences.
      I worked on C-130A's and 4 types of target drones when I joined the Navy in the early 1970's. Only recently did I fulfill my childhood dream of walking threw a real, airworthy B-17. Maybe next year I will have the $500 to take a ride !

    First of all I am a woman, not just men watched 12 O'Clock High. I was 18 when it was originally broadcast and I loved it. Now at 75 i love it just as much. Joe Gallegher is a commanding officer that any man would be proud to serve under,. The only thing that would have made this episode better was to see him alive, even a quick shot in bed, just see his face, know he is alive and going to get better and return to the 918th,
