Plot and Production
U.S. Marine Major Greg Donahue, newly arrived in Da Nang, South Vietnam hears that his physcian brother Gary (Robert Dornan) has been captured by the Viet Cong. Donahue is accompanied by a Marine Sergeant (Bill Bierd), a French Priest (Richard Jordahl) and a Vietnamese guide (Jeff Pearl) to free his brother.
Master Sergeant William V. Bierd was a Marine veteran of World War II, China, Korea, and Vietnam. Besides playing Sgt Gabreski, Bierd was an uncredited technical advisor on the film as well as a technical advisor on Marine Corps uniforms to Gomer Pyle USMC.
The US Marine Corps allowed Zens to film amphibious landing exercises at Camp Pendleton that appeared at the start of the film. A Marine Corps HUS-1 helicopter was provided for the climax.
Toward the end of the movie, a radio operator said, "Loud and Clear, Miss Muffet, hold one", played by Gregory S. Morrison, a Marine Corps Private Second Class, from Camp Pendleton. When the movie played at the Northgate movie theater, adjacent to Texas A&M University, the marquee read "To the Shores of Hell - STARRING Gregory S. Morrison".
