One of the best scenes in the movie when Sgt. Maj Plumley states it is a good morning to the young officer after both survived the brutal night.

I never met the CSM, but I was born into an Army family. My dad was an Infantry CSM. Growing up our neighbors were all CSMs and 1SGs.

I have served in the Army for 25 years.

IMHO Sam Elliot did a phenomenal job playing an Infantry CSM.

When my son was stationed at Ft. Benning he saw CSM Plumley in front of the post exchange. He said "Good morning Sergeant Major." To which CSM Plumley replied "I know what kind of a G_d damned day it is."

He was irascible, to say the least.
