Doc and Scout...
I agree so much with both of your statements. The American and Foreign public was sucked in to believe that Platoon was "the definative movie of Vietnam". Bull! Won't watch it nor recommend to anyone. If I had been in the 25th especially I'd a been even more pissed. The Nazi Flag on the M-113 was the final straw. (Gee, what was the inuendo there?)
