Re: “I guess you missed Band of Brothers.”

Nope.

I thought “Brothers” and “Saving Private Ryan” did an excellent job of portraying highly competent, politically neutral officers and NCO’s during combat.

I tried to watch Private Ryan (which I understand is very good), but had a hard time dealing with actor after actor who I knew were all undermining our troops in Iraq, giving their scathing leftist anti-American talking points every day when they weren't in that movie.

I turned it off, just couldn't get the image of them being traitors while acting out a patriotic role out of my mind. I've never seen it.

I loved Band of Brothers, all fresh faces who to my knowledge didn't do that leftist crap.

Great observation.

Funny thing is that type may enter a combat senerio but they won’t remain neutral after the first bullet whistles past his head.

Tom Hanks doesn’t deserve the libertys his fellow country men have fought and died for that he prospers from.
He is the poster child of a hypocritical asshole.
