Transcript

The Adventures of Frank Race, starring Tom Collins. War changed many things, the face of the Earth and the people on it. Before the war, Frank Race worked as an attorney, but he traded his law books for the cloak entagger of the OSS.

And when it was over, his former life was over too. Adventure had become his business. The Adventures of Frank Race. Now we join Frank Race for the adventure of the Roughnecks Will. Sometimes people come back to you through the years.

Jim Fallon was one of the former. We'd gone through law school together and played football together. One night in 1943, we'd almost die together in a parachute jump behind Rommel's lines. So when Mark Donovan relayed Jim's call to me, I told him to ignore the red lights.

Oh, let's go in. No, no, no, no. He said you should come to the doormark 411, ignoring that it is marked private. Sounds tough, secret. Right here. Here's for a lemon. Hello, Jim. Race. Oh man, it's good to see you.
