Oh, I don’t know. It was so many years ago, I’d have to go back and rewatch it, and that is something I just won’t do.
I just remember at the time the premise was stupid, war hero against a REMF command, their interactions, and a stupid martyr ending.
Sorry to not be of more help.
There is what I think is good balanced review here if you want more timely comment. :0)

I read it. I don’t think this Roger guy is doing a good job. I just can’t understand his sentence:
“If Winter is a disgrace to the uniform, so in a way is Irwin”
This seems just plain wrong. How can anyone come to this conclusion? How is Lt. Gen Irwin a disgrace to the uniform? I can see how Col. Winter is, but ...
Am I just too stupid to see it, because I don’t f*cking see it?
