How about we get a thread about Vietnam War-themed movies/series going? And maybe we can compile a great list in the end for people who want to get in the mood before a Saturday op!


I'll start!
We were soldiers

Platoon

Full metal Jacket

The Vietnam War

The movies here are considered classics, and the documentary "The Vietnam War" goes into great detail and accuracy, with released footage.

 

What's your favorite?
