Guys like that make me proud to be ...Yeah, he did. Guys like that make me proud to be an American. And the Marine LT, who charged an ambush with his M4, ran out of rounds, picked up an AK, ran out of rounds, pulled his M9, and ran out of rounds, and when all was said and done, he had saved his platoon and killed the entire ambush...and lived to tell the story. <BR/><BR/>I guess Holywood is pretty controversy-centric. As can be seen from the Academy Awards last night.Jonathan Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10451217251359570324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20271597.post-1141691018229169112006-03-06T16:23:00.000-08:002006-03-06T16:23:00.000-08:00I have no doubt that if they make a movie about it...I have no doubt that if they make a movie about it, they will portray him as a hero. Problem is, they would have never done it had there been no "controversy" surrounding his death.<BR/><BR/>Smith won the CMH for that, didn't he?Mr. Twistedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01612030977068036401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20271597.post-1141686650149508542006-03-06T15:10:00.000-08:002006-03-06T15:10:00.000-08:00A lot of f#@&%d up $#!t happens in war.

Some terrible crap happens, and there's nothing wrong with making a movie about it. Everytime I hear Sean Hannity and Ollie North talking about our valient men and women sacrificing for freedom, I wish they could see how many people die needlessly (Iraqi people), just so that someone can have a "combat kill". It would make you sick. <BR/><BR/>There are also a lot of great dudes, like SFC Smith from the 3rd ID, who laid waste to upwards of 50 hajis and lost his life, all while trying to defend his boys. That story will make you cry like a little girl and well up with pride. <BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, reality isn't on Hollywood's mind. Instead of trying to portray what really happens, they have to put everything through their liberal filter and wait for the story that will make it all look like a waste.Jonathan Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10451217251359570324noreply@blogger.com
