Gomer Pyle, USMC - The Impossible Dream...
A QUOTE F.T.C. - "I was in the audience for this scene, done at the DAR Hall in Wash DC. We were 5-6 rows watching the singing of the main song. Jim and the band were pre-recorded, but Jim did sing live with the recording, you could easily hear him belting. Got Jim's autograph, and Frank Sutton (Sgt Carter) and Roland Winters (who introduced Gomer to the crowd). I remember Sheldon Leonard there too. A huge day in my life. Dad took us there w/out telling us (in case it was canceled). Then saw Jim decates later, and he remembered it all location and all. What a man, what a time. Why can't the earth have this kind of great time? All we did was take a bus downtown."
