Yeah dickfuck...wars are fucked up. Assholes like you would be the first screaming to send kids to die though if it was your freedoms which were being threatened...your loved ones dying from a terrorist's bomb. Vietnam was a political clusterfuck, but the soldiers were there to do what they were trained to do. It's your ilk, with their illusions of superiority and intelligence who couldn't and can't distinguish the two.</font></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></BLOCKQUOTE>

Did you even see the movie? Do you have any idea what it was about? It wasn't about the politics of Vietnam, I'll tell you that much. The title explains what it was...a bunch of guys that were sent over to fight and die, and if it glorified anything it was them...not the politicians they fought for. You and those like you have never been able to distinguish the war from the soldiers that fought in it and that is the key of that movie and that book. Few people defend the Vietnam war. It was an obvious fuck up...but the soldiers were just doing what they were trained to do.
By the way, when you use words like "sheep" you instantly sound like an arrogant, Nietzsche spoonfed pisshead.

I saw the movie today and thought well of it. I'll never understand the venom that people like Favorite have for our military. The war was ultimately a clusterfuck, but that was the politicians. The soldiers were (in the severe majority) just doing what they had to do and what they were sent to do. I'd be interested to know what war-time Favorite has logged?Oh, and Dan Rather is a pussy fuck that would kill his own mother to get the jump on a story. WAR "Reagan is dead". http://www.hostboard.com/forums/

Kirk, if you mean the new LZ that they made by blowing up trees, yes, it's in the movie.
