I would love to see the film, but after four tours in combat zones, I really do get a little antsy when I hear the mortar rounds.

I used to love watching “We were Soldiers” but I started getting very nervous through the battle scenes and had to get up and walk around. Can’t even sit through the “Green Berets” anymore.

The trailer is good. The first time I saw it, I got annoyed at the scene where Doss kicks a grenade. Then I read his Medal of Honor citation and was floored. It really is more than most people can believe.

This show was produced before anti American commies were everywhere.
