Great movie, at least as good as Full Metal Jacket.

I once bought a used Dress cover, and the name inside it was 'Owens'. Always thought that was funny.

Well, same subject, but different in a lot of ways. I did PI in '66 and when people ask if PI was that bad, I tell 'em, - nope, it was a lot worse.
I wasn't pleased with the 'Nam part of FMJ either. Then again, it was a Hollyweird production.
BTW, if you look closely ... Ermey has his PUC on upside down.
