...but don't get me wrong, of course we should avoid using such slang, but hell, if I were in battle, I'd sure not be worried about what I was saying...and therefore it is silly to think that this movie could be realistic without a whole lotta cussin'!!
I spent 26 years on active duty retiring in 92. "Profane speech" was the every day norm for myself and the soldiers around me. Nobody thought anything about it.
These days its different. I have two sons on active duty (both Army) and, from what they tell me the pattern still exists but only in private conversation the PC invasion has banned dirty words.
Would be a revalation to the DI who pushed me those final bars on the overhead ladder propelled purely by invective (damn I hated that thing.)
