"...After his Victory at the Battle of IA DRANG-1965...
...Lt. Col. HAL G. MOORE (MEL GIBSON) hand wrote out his -Letters of Condolances- to all the nearly 500 Families and Loved Ones of our 7th Cavalry's Killed and Wounded in that Battle.
...He wrote them up...
...I typed them up, as Battalion S-1 Personnel Clerk, for mailing back home, some thru Mrs. JULIE MOORE back in Columbus GA to pass on to Wives of the Fallen.
...So, as you might imagine, the most meaningful part of .."WE WERE SOLDIERS".. for me was when Mrs. BARBARA GEOGHEGAN was shown reading her -Letter of Condolance- from Lt. Col. MOORE, and all that it meant, at the end of the Movie.
Thanks for seeing .."WE WERE SOLDIERS".., my Friend. Appreciate."

Thank YOU, sir...fer me, the most moving scene was that deployment speech on the field wherein Col. Moore says, "I cannot guarantee your safety, but..." Was that original speech ever recorded and if so, were Gibson's words derived from the original transcript? That dialog blew me away to the point where I listened to it 10-12 times in a row before my VCR ate the tape...the DVD player just lets you go right back to that scene whenever I feel like it. Technology is AWESOME...but IMHO, what makes the American Military superior to EVERY Fighting Force that has EVER patrolled the Earth is the Innate Understanding that WE Are Right!! We Are Fighting Against Tyranny and Oppression!! We Are Fighting FOR Liberty and Justice For ALL!!

Utmost FReegards...
