Korean Front: Stars Entertain As B-29's Blast Reds B-29 bombers hammer Pyongyang, the devastating conclusion to a 24-hour aerial assault that reduces all military targets to rubble. Great footage of bombers taking off, dropping bombs, and aerial footage. Meanwhile, on the front lines, a Hollywood troupe entertains G.I.'S, despite pouring rain. Nice shots of soldiers with cameras, smiling in audience. GIs clapping, etc., at least one African American (black) soldier in audience. Lucky soldier gets a kiss from Joy Windsor (?). Women military seated in audience. Man does slapstick performance / stunt show, doing backward somersaults in character.
