The Glory Brigade is a 1953 American war film directed by Robert D. Webb. It stars Victor Mature and Alexander Scourby.

Production

The film's original title was Baptism of Fire. Victor Mature was to have been loaned to RKO for Split Second, but Fox decided to keep him to star in The Glory Brigade. Filming began on September 15, 1952.

The film was shot at the United States Army Engineer School at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. The opening scene in which the bridge is blown up was filmed on the Osage River in Tuscumbia, Missouri.

While filming a scene at Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri, a demolition charge exploded underneath a boat, killing the boatman and injuring two others.

The Glory Brigade was Mature's first role as a combat soldier, and it was the only film in which Lee Marvin wore glasses in all of his scenes.
