The Glory Guys

"The Glory Guys" is a 1965 motion picture based on the novel "The Dice of God" by Hoffman Birney. Filmed by Levy-Gardner-Laven and released by United Artists, it stars Tom Tryon, Harve Presnell, Senta Berger, James Caan and Michael Anderson, Jr. The film was written by Sam Peckinpah who was replaced as director by Arnold Laven. Riz Ortolani composed the score and the title song.

Though a fictionalized Western based on George Armstrong Custer's 7th Cavalry Regiment at the Battle of the Little Big Horn, the film is almost a generic war story covering the enlistment, training, and operational deployment of a group of recruits that could take place in any time period.
