When I’d come back to Warner Brothers after the war, I’d shared the orthodox liberal view that Communists—if there really were any—were liberals who were temporarily off track, and whatever they were, they didn’t pose much of a threat to me or anyone.

I knew from the experience of hand-to-hand combat that America faced no more insidious or evil threat than that of Communism.”
