Hey RL-
Have you at least seen "the Bridge at Toko-Ri" - and when are you going to answer? You never even asked for discovery time or a continuance.
And TR - "Horror show" on the nekulturny ref - I don't think it the other guys caught it - haven't seen "A Clockwork Orange" in a looooong time.

I am too busy to answer these questions now, but one of these days I will watch it again and see if I can answer the questions.
I did attempt to watch The Frogmen the other day. Couldn't get into it and turned it off.

...SIGH....
Well Doc,
Looks as if you're going to have to put your "Cuba" OP on hold. I see a bigger cause, that needs doing.
The "Education of R.L."......
So far, the list of "Educational" tapes that he needs to see, is.....
Mr. Roberts
The Green Berets
The Frogmen
The Bridge at Toko-Ri
The Green Berets
and I'm going to venture to guess....
Battleground
The Bridge Over the River Kwai
The Guadalcanal Diaries
Sgt. York
To Hell and Back
Have a seat R.L. .....there's a Nice Glass of Moo Juice, on the other end for you.

Anzio?

I can't even think of all the great WWII movies out there.

Would I be banned from the site if I admitted that I have never watched "The Green Berets"?

We need an entrance exam to get on the site!!!  Just basic stuff like:
minimal grammar, spelling and punctuation
5 questions on the movie the Green Berets
5 questions on some key figures from SF history - like COL Aaron Bank, COL Nick Rowe, COL Bob Howard, etc.
A few SA questions
Nothing tough, but jeez, joining a Special Forces site without having a clue about the movie the Green Berets..... 
Just to weed out the oxygen thieves.
Tubbs - you are redeemable, you now have to rent or buy the Green Berets and watch it 5 times, then take the test originally posted for RL.

Who is this COL Nick Nowe that you refer to?

I guess QPs don't have to be able to spell COL Rowe's name . . .

Failed one part of the spelling test - actually the typing test - edited. How the hell I got to "N" when it should have been an "R" I will never figure out, kind of like Ranger Land Nav - "Dammit, I know I'm in the right place, the map is wrong!!"
Penace through PT will be performed after work.

Bad day for my fat fingers - I double tapped the "n" in penance.

No charge for the top cover and diversionary effort, Counselor.
All I ask is that you watch the movie.

Good thing I'm not a Delta, because then I might ask you whether you really were a Bravo . . .
