''The Rear Guard'' is a 1976 pilot episode for an American adaptation of the British situation comedy ''Dad's Army''. Set in World War II, ''The Rear Guard'' followed a band of men in the American Civil Defense (c. 1942) who were part of an auxiliary force in the event of an invasion of the USA. The episode was an adaptation of "The Deadly Attachment", in which a German U-Boat crew are placed under the supervision of the platoon. The pilot was aired on Tuesday the August 10, 1976, broadcast on the American Broadcasting Company.〔http://archive.is/20120630225102/http://www.btinternet.com/~m.brown1/rear.htm Dave Homewood's Guide to ''The Rear Guard''〕 However it was not popular and never made it past its pilot to become a series. As it was a failure, the original tapes the show was recorded on were wiped. However copies of the show are in the possession of the show's director Hal Cooper and other producers that were associated with the show. ==Cast== As ''The Rear Guard'' was a remake of ''Dad's Army'', many of the characters were visible in the remake, under alternative names. Here is a list of the characters and their original counterparts. Sergeant Max Raskin - Lou Jacobi (Arthur Wilson) Captain Nick Rosatti - Cliff Norton (George Mainwaring) Bert Wagner - Eddie Foy Jr. (Jack Jones) Don Crawford - John McCook (Joe Walker) Bobby Henderson - Dennis Kort (Frank Pike) The characters of Privates Godfrey and Frazer were not re-created. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Rear Guard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
