The title on the cover envelope is: Gung Ho

The title in film credits is:
"Gung Ho!" (huge on the top of the screen)
The Story of Carlson's Makind Island Raiders (small prints)

So, what title should be contributed?

IMO, title shoud be "Gung Ho" and original title should be "Gung Ho! The Story of Carlson's Makind Island Raiders"

I agree, although I'd probably add a ":" to it - "Gung Ho!: The Story of Carlson's Makind Island Raiders".

"Gung Ho!" is written on screen in quotation marks, as it is a motto.

The original title reads:
"Gung Ho!" The Story... etc.

Fact is, only the first two words (the motto) are in quotation marks.
I mean, they used quotation marks not just to highlight the title, as in other old movies, but to show that those words are a quote.

In that case

Title: Gung Ho (as on the envelope)

Original Title: "Gung Ho!": The Story of Carlson's Makind Island Raiders

I think that would keep most people happy.
