Funniest movie EVAR!!
It is a great movie, but not the one I'm thinking of..although that is the name I orginally wrote down and then changed it.

Mine is about the Cavalry -- but I think they had green uniforms instead of blue ones.

Probably about the same era, but not nearly as classic as Blazing Saddles. Nobody punches out a horse.

"Platoon" - from what my father (served a year in Army during Vietnam) has told me, it was incredibly realistic. My dad served in the same area during the same time period as the movie was supposed to represent, and he said that the film really takes him back there whenever he sees it.

If he says its realistic, I'll take his word for it.

I was going to post this one. It's about my grandfather's unit, so of course he actually knew the guy played by Mel Gibson. I think, however, that my grandfather was not there during the time that the movie covers. He had already been sent home after nearly dying in a helicopter crash.
