Most realistic war movie made....”84 Charlie Mopic”

I am a Vietnam vet and thought it was a documentary when I saw it on TV by accident one evening...

Actually shows the boredom of inaction that occurs in the lulls of that war....

My Grandpa was in that battle. He served under Colonel Moore and is good friends with Sergeant-Major Plumley. Matter of fact, they meet on Fridays and have breakfast at McDonald’s together with a few other guys from the 1st Cav. I’d love to sit in on their conversations and listen to their stories although, according to my Grandpa, they don’t talk too much about the war (understandably). Guess I just like the thought of sitting in the presence of men who have accomplished great things...
