Response to Think you got a bit confused chris
Ustinov served under Niven when Niven was in charge of a film unit--they were making "The Way Ahead". Niven was roped in because of his Hollywood experience and connections. Not surprisingly, he wanted active service, and got it eventually.

"I will, however, tell you just one thing about the war, my first story and my last. I was asked by some American friends to search out the grave of their son near Bastogne. I found it where they told me I would, but it was among 27,000 others, and I told myself that here, Niven, were 27,000 reasons why you should keep your mouth shut after the war."
