From Quiz Hart's War

Answer: Col. William McNamara

Col. McNamara is a stern, but fair leader who has a hidden agenda. Some decisions he makes seem harsh, however there is a good reason for them. Bruce Willis plays Army Col. McNamara. Willis is well known for his tough guy routine, and is indeed a very good fit for this part.

From Quiz Hart's War

Answer: Lt. Thomas Hart

Lt. Hart is clearly not comfortable with this assignment, as he is not a lawyer. He is also ordered by Col. McNamara to have Lt. Scott lie about how he gets out of the barracks at night. He will later understand why McNamara gave this order. Colin Farrell plays Lt. Hart. Did you know that he is an Irish actor born from Dublin, Ireland?

He is the go-to man if a POW needs cigarettes, clothing, boots, etc. It is learned that he gets these items from the German guards in trade for information about POW activity. He is very insubordinate to officers, and seems to care only for his personal gain. Terrence Howard plays an Army Air Corp. pilot in this film.
