After spending 7 years active duty in the marine corps I heartily agree with parts of the things Col. Jessup had to say. We were out there "on the wall" but I would never defend what he did to bring about the initial crime to the marine who died. I just think people in their heart of hearts think we marines are "grotesque creatures" but we did and still perform an important function for this country. Former USMC KathyG.
while I may never truly know the truth...some things I do not need to know....great scene from a movie that, more than we want to realize, represents our everyday world....why do we hold ourselves above the acceptable norms..??.. afre we holding out for the 72 virgins..??..
