Up from the Ranks (1943)

The story

In 1943, a group of Canadian Army officer recruits begin their 90-day training regimen at the Canadian Officers' Training Centre (OTC) at Brockville, Ontario. The object is to turn out officers who will take charge of a platoon of soldiers. The way officers once received their commission through family connections or other status, is no longer being followed as the recruits are not college graduates, but ordinary soldiers who have proven themselves in the enlisted ranks, and are already serving in overseas units.
