I remeber seeing this movie on TV as a kid as sort of a school assignment for history, it was very traumatic.

This current grenade attack was even worse than Slovik's desertion and duly needed execution back in WW2, as someone has directly died from this crime.

True story of only GI to be executed for desertion during WWII. Potent, deeply affecting drama features powerhouse lead performance by Sheen. Too bad Sheen wasn't really shot in the movie. I get so tired of actors who don't mind making extremely violent movies being opposed to just about every military engagement since Vietnam.
