Trivia
The dog playing Laddie (the son of Lassie) is actually Pal - the dog who played the original Lassie in Lassie Come Home (1943).

Goofs
The British plane flown by Joe has a maple leaf as mark so the plane should be Canadian. As the movie was shot in the States and Canada is likely a Canadian aircraft was used.

wartime Lassie

Laddie is the son of Lassie. He is recruited to be a war dog during WWII. His human Joe Carraclough (Peter Lawford) is training to be part of the bomber crew. He sneaks onto the plane on a mission to Norway. They are hit by enemy fire and crashes in occupied territory. Laddie has to use his smarts but he mistakes Nazi soldiers for help. He is wounded and found by local kids.

It's the second Lassie movie and the franchise is pitching in on the war effort. The Nazis have no shame. They go after a dog and little kids. The main problem is that Laddie keeps inadvertently helping the Nazis. Yet they cannot do anything but be defeated by a dog. That's the power of this family friendly fight against the Nazis.
