The second is the harsh natural environment of the rainforest in Vietnam. This is a challenge that has never been faced by free young Americans. It is even more difficult to deal with by the Viet Cong, because the Viet Cong relies on the protection of this environment to let the American soldiers. There is nothing to do.
The third is his comrade-in-arms. This is even the most dangerous problem. In the abnormal environment of war, killing the enemy is a bounden duty, and killing teammates will also become a mistake again and again. Terrible war.

Platoon quotes

  • Doc: This is bad, man. I got bad vibes here.

  • Chris Taylor: It's the way the whole thing works. People like Elias get wasted. People like Barnes just go on making up the rules any way they want. So what do we do? Sit in the middle and suck on it. We just don't add up to dry shit, King.

    King: Whoever said we did, man? All you got to do is make it out of here, and it's all gravy. Every day, the rest of your life, gravy.
