This song is the theme song to my favorite military show: The Unit. I am a former marine but in our speak there is no such thing, once a marine always a marine. Semper Fi About half of the unit I belonged to died in 88 due to a helicopter crash during routine exercises. I dedicate this to them. Also, my best friend from my youth died in Iraq Hemi I miss you brother.
I'm terribly sorry for the loss of your friend.
Mate I've been out since 1970.
I still watch a lot of war movies; of all kinds.
I think you get more( different?) out of war movies if you've been a grunt. I was, and was in harm's way,but never fired my weapon in anger and am not a veteran.. I think it must be far more powerful for veterans. --a lot of war movies make veterans very angry. My dad used to almost chew the carpet over most American WW2 war movies. (mainly because they tended to ignore the allies and tell lies,according to dad.)
