There is a real good book on the Accounts of the Indy which is very good ! The movie with Nic cage is just lacking any respect for anything that really happened and the men who lived and died!

 

[Dennis H]

Sorry, baad ******* movie. Those poor bastards. Director Peebles can go to hell. Too much time on the men struggling in the water. We ******* get it. Overkill. No need for this.

 

[alsant]

Very good book!

Currently watching, and have to agree, not a very good movie. A war time version of Jaws with Nic Cage.

 

[Dennis H]

I did not know about the Captain Court Marshall. Shame. Dropping those bombs was the BEST THING THE USA ever did. No shame. Saved American lives. When the enemy (at the time) finds honor in death, it calls for drastic measures.

Nic Cage sucks, has never made a movie that didn't suck. Bi-level celebrity on his best of days.

 

[Officer Higgins]

Ghost rider was only cool when bone head was fire on. Cage not too good.

This book gave me a new found appreciation for being Infantry.
