This is a link to a series of clips from one of the funniest part of one of my favorite movies. It is of a Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant "motivating" a private he nicknamed 'Gomer Pyle'. Enjoy!

Be advised that the movies also contains some of the coarsest language imaginable, it it constant throughout, young ears should not listen.

There was a Australian movie...The Odd angry Shot. Great movie. Looking for the DVD.
SAS_VET_Centurion. And that is my $.02 Cdn. worth!!! Just because I am 51, does not mean I am old!
Well I think that "Band of Bothers" was good too. However it was a miniseries.
Yes indeed JB, it's a "must see".
Also add:
Saving Private Ryan
Sniper 1 - 2
Bravo Two Zero
Deer Hunter
The Longest Day and To Hell and Back are my favorite war movies. I'm also found of many others but their not my favorites.
Enemy at the Gate is one movie i've never gotton to see all of, and SPR I've missed the middle.
The movie called Windtalker aint bad either.. nice raw blood scenes. :smokin:
Good movie, iv seen it many times over. They cut out my fav line from it though.
DI “How tall are you private!?”
Private “Sir, 5 foot 6 sir!”
DI “I never knew they stacked sh*** that high!”
I also like Black Hawk Down, the book is so much more detailed though. I'm also a big fan of We Were Soldiers, amazing movie. Being a big sniper buff I don’t mind Enemy At The Gates however it’s a bit to Hollywood. The book War of the Rats is much better.

I second that Jakub... Rotten Kreig was awesome to read... and the movie did not do it justice..
