Yes I agree!! also Mel Gibson does a great job putting historical accuracy into the movies he is involved with. The Officer he portrayed was the type I would want leading me if I had been in that situation. Because the actual officer refused to abandon his men on that hill he was sent home and taken from command of the unit he started. But I think they still promoted him because of all the publicity of the action taken place in "We Were Soldiers" Once!
