The Dare-Devil Rescue Raid

"The Dare-Devil Rescue Raid" is the fourteenth episode of the first season of The Rat Patrol. It first aired on December 12, 1966.

Synopsis
The Rat Patrol watch the horrific crash of a plane with Sergeant Moffitt's father as a passenger. Mr. Moffitt (Norman Wooland), Sergeant Moffitt's father, couldn't possibly have survived, and surely the Germans saw the crash. It would be foolish to attempt a rescue for a man who is certainly dead. Sergeant Troy orders Sergeant Moffitt not to take a jeep in an ill-advised rescue attempt. Sergeant Moffitt obeys: he takes off on foot. It turns out his father is alive.
