The Unknown Soldier, Finnish war drama based on the book with same title, which is written by a person who experienced all this by himself as an NCO in a machine gun company.

The one movie listed already, The Best Years of our Lives, was the first film I can recall that really delved into the impact of war on our troops and sailors. It actually dealt with the physical and mental traumas that all the other films either glossed over or ignored. For that alone it deserves to be seen by every generation and especially our politicians.

The list of films has already included all of my favorites with a couple of exceptions. One is The Pacific and the other is the one about Desmond Doss. The title escapes me right now, senior moment, sigh.
DEFINITION OF A VETERAN
A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."

I just realized that blonde is the girl from 1883.
Toxic, psychotic, self-aggrandizing drama queens simply aren't worth me spending my time on.

To crush your enemies, drive them before you, and hear the lamentations of their women?
