I'm quite sure that it will be exactly the opposite. I really think you're gonna see an "America's foreign policy is A.F.U. and look how many kids are dying" type film.

There was an OTT thread a couple months ago that discussed the upcoming movie and there was also some positive discussion of the book. I read it cover to cover inside a day and enjoyed it quite a bit.

Uh, it's Oohrah.

...and technically, that's pretty much a West coast Marine thing, or at least it used to be. Maybe it's migrated now. PI marines used to make fun of SD Marines for oohrah.

This is very interesting. I did not know this, and knowing it makes oohrah a little less gay.

the intensity and horror of the fighting and dying are not even comparable.

Don't tell that to those of us that have seen people die there. The sheer magnitude of death may be less, but it's no less intense or horrific.
