Rick Jason — TV Flash editorial portrait
Actor Combat!

Lt. Gil Hanley

Rick Jason

Rick Jason's Lt. Gil Hanley kept Combat! in small-unit grind — Vic Morrow's Sgt. Saunders leading a weary squad through WWII Europe with more mud than glory, Jason the officer weather that held the hour together. TV Flash files him as 1960s infantry drama: ensemble war television that later squad stories still echo, black-and-white on purpose.

Rick Jason plays Lt. Gil Hanley on Combat!, the officer who keeps a weary WWII Europe squad in small-unit grind while Vic Morrow's Sgt. Saunders leads from the mud. More exhaustion than glory — ensemble war television that later squad stories still echo. Jason sells command without turning the hour into a speech. Black-and-white as texture, not nostalgia sticker.

Jason on Combat! (ABC, 1962–1967) is the only filing the magazine needs. Lt. Gil Hanley occupies that span. Start at s01e01: Forgotten Front is the 1962 contract: Vic Morrow's Sgt. Saunders, a weary squad, WWII Europe as grind rather than glory. The essential is a place to stand, not a trailer.

The decade's infantry drama needed a lieutenant who looked tired. On TV Flash Jason is 1960s war craft: the officer who made weekly Europe feel like a job, then left the glory talk at the rear.

Rick Jason bruises the handshake at s02e01: The Bridge at Chalons opens season two still in small-unit weather: Rick Jason's Lt. Hanley keeping the hour on the ground. s02e30 keeps a sideways coordinate — Command — mid-run title as the burden the series actually sells, ensemble war television later squad stories still echo. Supporting, and load-bearing. Lt. Gil Hanley is not the logo of Combat!; Rick Jason is why the marquee still has a world. Watch the position. Jason remains the Combat! temperature the catalog actually uses.

Stay inside Combat!. Lt. Gil Hanley is 1960s work on ABC, 1962–1967 on the spine, and a second magazine page will not make him clearer. The picks are a map: s01e01, s02e01, s02e30. Play them as position. Rick Jason is already the pulse the filing asked for.
