[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 906305, member: 12"] FWIW, when bullets and hot shrapnel start ripping your butt, being "articulate" is usually out the door and the F bombs fly fast and furious. Hard guys use hard words and they are some of the hardest. Been there, done that and not pretty at times. There were some liberties taken by Hollywood to make it a more interesting movie, and some scenes that were probably in real life but not in the book, for example the initiation scene with the new guy dancing. The goat herders is the age old dilemma facing recon teams and has been discussed in training and real life for years. At some points, options A, B, and C have all been taken, but option A is untenable in the PC world of today. War is dirty business. If you like this, you need to see [I][B]Acts of Valor[/B][/I] that came out two years ago. Stories of real life missions and real SEALS as the actors with live ammo in numerous scenes. [/QUOTE]
