6. We Were Soldiers.
It defies the conventional wisdom that the left would have us believe actually happened in Vietnam.

Honestly, my biggest regret of that war is that Jane Fonda wasn’t lined up in front of a ditch, covered over, and forgotten about just like all the Vietnamese who actually did have to pay that penalty instead of her.
If there is a hell, she’s on the slow track to it. Darn it.

What about “Lone Survivor”?
Saw that a couple of weekends ago and loved it. Not as good as “American Sniper”, but still showed American soldiers at their bravest.

It maybe wasn’t a good picture but it saved lives in Iraq. My son and a buddy were walking to the chow hall and saw an Iraqi soldier pacing off the distance. They had mortar attacks all the time. My son knew immediately what was going on thanks to the movie. The police got the guy, stopping a potential accurate attack.

Try the early Viet Nam movie with Burt Lancaster, “Go tell the Spartans”, I was told by a career officer back in the late 70’s that it was as close as to what was happening during the earlier days before the massive influx of GIs.

Red Dawn should be just beneath The Green Berets. I've never known a cold war era Leftist that didn't start foaming at the mouth whenever Red Dawn was mentioned by someone in a neutral manner. Mentioning it in a positive manner around a Leftist simply wasn't safe.

I really liked that movie — up until the point where the director has the Rough Riders murder a prisoner.

“I was told by a career officer back in the late 70s that it was as close as to what was happening during the earlier days”.
Probably the best depiction of the early days in Vietnam. My uncle was there with the Army Corps of Engineers in 1962. He told me the same thing.

Lancaster isn’t wearing a Ridgeway cap, The baseball caps came toward the end of the 60’s. In 64 we were still wearing hard sided cap with the flat top.
