Memory pieces

After watching it for a while, I went back and commented on it. My memory is already incomplete. It seems that people who read war movies don't like it very much. Whatever, I think it is still very human in the tedious and lengthy description of the life of soldiers. From time to time, I will touch my tense nerves, or I will show a secret smile when I am a little surprised. The music is very good, and the old-fashioned American blockbuster (lyrical music + brief and refined life insights) is still very sensational after all. In addition, Anti-war is a good theme, just for this, I should also support the director a little.

Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford: No, Staff Sergeant.
Sgt. Siek: Good.

Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford: [the Doors' "Break on Through" being played on a flying by helicopter] That's Vietnam music... can't we get our own music?
