Identity Unknown

1945 NR 1h 11m 6.3

An amnesiac soldier, the only survivor of a group of four unidentified soldiers - victims of a bomb raid - visits each man's address with the hope of restoring his memory and identity.

Recuperating from injuries sustained in battle, an American serviceman is aboard a military hospital ship en route back to the US. The most severe of his injuries is that he is suffering from amnesia, not knowing who he is. The US Army also does not know who he is, the assumption being that he is one of four who were found in a farmhouse in France that was bombed by the Nazis, he the only survivor with the other three killed beyond recognition, with their four sets of dog tags discovered in the wreckage their only identification. With the ship docking in the US, the Army goes on a quest to discover who of the four he is, while he, calling himself Johnny March in the meantime, he with the names and addresses of the four, those addresses located in four different corners of the country from big cities to small towns to rural America, goes AWOL on a direct quest of his own, he hoping that someone in one of those four locations will know who he is. Conversely, he will find that even in those locations where the loved ones don't know him, he will evoke strong reactions in being connected to those loved ones in their final moments, while he hopes information about them will provide further clues about who he is.
