    At the beginning of the the movie it says "based on", not "this is exactly what happened".

    I have to say it was one of the better "war", for a lack of better word, movies I have seen. More accurate gear at least, good cinematography, and a decent story. We all know a lot was left out, liberties were taken, etc... But all in all, pretty good movie, considering everything else I have seen lately.

    And remember three guys died on that hill, and more trying to rescue them. All were heroes no matter how it went down. We were not there. Respect that if cant respect anything else.,
    That's practically what I was getting at.

    Yep, I wanted to use a lot more colorful language but somehow managed to throttle it back. She is garbage of the highest order.

    Wow. I have a feeling the word respect is now going to be found in history books and taken out of our current dictionary...Im so sick of people saying whatever they want and hide behind the phrase, "freedom of speech!" Yes you are free to say what you want, but holy crap at least have some couth.

    That woman can kiss my ass. I don't cuss much but I'll hold it to just ass. To sit there behind a computer with the world at your fingertips and wrongly judge and interpret what happened to men who were out there defending the very country who give her that leisurely lifestyle...... just go away and pound sand in other soil besides this country.

    While I don't have an opinion on the matter, I do agree that we should be able to separate the mission with the men on the mission.

    I will nitpick a little and say that they did not die in vain, because Marcus lived. But regarding the strategic situation, it's possible.
