Combat!: The Farmer (1965) (TV)

The squad is staying at a farm whose owners had to be evacuated. One of the replacements is fond of farming and cares so much about the farm that it jeopardizes the mission.

Apparently silly, but really about a serious issue, namely, that some rural people were not as motivationally connected with the war effort as urban ones were. Values differ, ways of life too. In a way, one could almost say that they were dragged into other people's war.
