The Garrison's Gorillas TV show was a 60 minute war/action series on ABC about a group of misfits who were taken from prisons to become commandos who would use their criminal skills against the Germans during World War II. If their maneuvers were successful, they would get Presidential pardons. If they failed, they would be disposed of by a firing squad!

Garrison's Gorillas Trivia
Casino was a safe cracker who could break into just about anything, Chief was an American Indian who could quietly kill with his switchblade, Actor was a pretty-boy con man who could convince anyone of anything, and Goniff was a cat burglar who could get in and out of anyplace without being seen.
Lieutenant Garrison was a West Point graduate who, after a brief period of difficulty, quickly convinced his "tough-guy" crew that he was tougher than the bunch of them put together.
Garrison's Gorillas had a pretty nice time slot on Tuesday evenings from 7:30 to 8:30PM. In the same slot, CBS was airing "Daktari" while NBC was broadcasting "I Dream of Jeannie" and the first half of "The Jerry Lewis Show".
Garrison's Gorillas were "headquartered" in a secluded part of England but their missions were typically behind enemy lines on the continent.
