Combat - or to give its name properly - Combat! - was a TV show that ran from 1962 until 1967 about "King Company" during the invasion of France in World War Two, starting from D-Day and never farther than that throughout its five-season run. It predominatly featured Sergeant Chip Saunders, though his entire squad was just as fleshed out.
