[PW] WWII movie set on South Pacific Island

[Bill Davis]

I'd like to identify a movie I saw as a child.   My impression was 
that it was about an American on a South Pacific Island during World 
War II, perhaps spying on Japanese ship movements.   At the end of 
the movie, the American returns to a small village and finds it has 
been strafed and everyone apparently killed.  He finds the body of a 
little native boy he had befriended, next to a baby that had 
survived.  He buries or moves the dead, and sets himself up in an 
machine gun dugout with the baby, and is killed while firing back at 
another Japanese strafing run, left lying dead in the dugout, with 
the baby crying.  I believe the last scene indicated other survivors 
had returned, recovered the baby, and were being taken off the island.

It's similar in theme to NO MAN IS AN ISLAND, with Jeffrey Hunter.  I 
don't think I've ever seen that movie but I understand it was about 
George Tweed, who survived the war, so I don't think that would be it.
