He re-enlisted after the war and was discharged in the late 1950s due to a back injury.

It's interesting to me because there's a lot of stuff that wasn't in the movie, but specifically something that hits home to me was that my grandfather was Hal Moore's XO, and never appeared in the movie, because when Hal Moore was writing the book, he approached my grandfather and he said that he didn't want to relive that battle / war. He's mentioned in the book, but not in the movie. They replaced him with a fictitious character. Nothing really changes, and I can't say that I blame him for it, but it would be cool to see him portrayed in a big time movie. Maj Herman L Wirth landed at LZ Falcon and never saw what happened at X-Ray, but I still think it would have been cool to see him in a movie. Side note, when Hal Moore was promoted to Colonel, the Army wanted to bring in somebody else to head the battalion, and Moore said that it's gotta be Herm, Army didn't like (or necessarily want) it, but they approved and he was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel. The command structure that Moore and Wirth used was called a dissociative command structure (not really sure if that was developed by them or simply adapted for the purpose), and that was reviewed and sent to West Pointe to be taught. Until at least the early 2000's it was taught, as my grandmothers CSO knew that he was going to a Lt. Col. Wirth, but didn't put the information together until he was at the house and was talking with my grandmother and mom. Pretty cool (in my opinion) little bit of trivia that directly relates to that movie, book, and battle.

The captain of the airliner was also Ivan on Magnum PI. As in “Hey Ivan, did you see the sunrise?”

The Dirty Dozen was based on the filthy thirteen that jumped into Normandy, june 6th 1944. not to be confused with what most know as Easy company 506th PIR... but the misfits of the 101st in WWII who were pretty rough and tough, and 12 out of 13 dawned the mohawk and warpaint into the normandy jump. mostly inspired, and followed from Sgt. Jake McNiece. who was one bad mother....well you get the point. We did a Memorial photoshoot for these guys a few years back. As they are not super well known. i highly suggest people looking into and reading about the Filthy Thirteen, especially if you ever likes or enjoyed the movie the dirty dozen.

I was on a series of recons when I was in Somalia. When we came in the next morning after pickup we landed on the very edge of the airfield which was on the top of the biggest hill in the area. the sun was just starting to come up over the horizon and as we start to walk away from the Blackhawk we were walking into what seemed like that biggest sun ever seen and to a man we started to sing the Ballad Of The Green Berets.

US Army did use halftracks in WWII, specifically the M3. Their advantage was that they had the traction of tracked vehicles, while maintaining the ease of steering of wheeled vehicles. If you could drive a truck, you could pretty much drive a half track.

there needs to be a movie about "the outpost of Freedom". book written by the first medal of honor in Vietnam. received by a green beret. its eerie how similar it is to the movie/account of "the outpost" that Jericho worked on.

The halftrack in "The Dirty Dozen" was an 18ton halftrack used for tank recovery and heavy towing duties Sdkfz 9 FAMO.

A friend and neighbor of ours was in Vietnam, when he watched "We Were Soldiers" he completely broke down crying. He was a helicopter pilot during that battle. Not sure if you have watched it or not, but "The Devil's Brigade" (1968) is one of my favorites, and often overlooked, and based on actual events.

Yeah, all the buildings at the Ft Benning MOUT city have these bars 3-4 inches above floor level, under every window, to catch a grappling hook. They showed us how, then.....we basically just used them to hold our feet when we were doing sit ups, and that was 2002.

So Bo Svenson, the actor who played the pilot in THE DELTA FORCE and Roy the bar owner in HEARTBREAK RIDGE, sadly did not also star in THE DIRTY DOZEN...however he DID appear in THE DIRTY DOZEN: THE DEADLY MISSION, the second of three made-for-TV sequels to the original film in the 1980s. The first movie actually brought Lee Marvin back, 18 years after the first film but taking place only 3 months later, because why not. Just for good measure there was also a short-lived DIRTY DOZEN TV series on the brand new Fox network which last 1 season.

We were conducting an air mobile exercise onboard Bragg. At the end of the exercise, we were ducked down in the reeds in about 2' of water. It was dusk, the Western sky was still light but the sun was below the trees. The water started to dance before we heard the UH-1s the first one skimmed the tree line and the other four in trail.

I was just listening to a podcast about Delta Force. They mentioned that Charlie Beckwith walked off the movie in disgust, because originally they had pitched it to him as a "serious" historical film. The producer, who became legendary for making some of the trashiest movies of the 80's, then told him he was going to make an authentic and respectful account of Operation Eagle Claw, only this time the Americans would win.

I seem to remember watching a video of one of the M16 developers talking about how the Air Cav used the very earliest models of that rifle with chrome plated bolt carriers, full auto, and no forward assist.

In the Dirty Dozen before Jim Brown throws the grenades into the ventilation ports for the bunker they dump satchel's of pined grenades it's in each ventilation port, then they take 5 gallon Jerry cans filled with fuel and pourt them down each ventilation port. You can pick this up in the scene before Jim Brown drops the final grenades as he runs.

I was in 8/229 AVN at Knox - our hangars looked almost *exactly * like the hangar in We Were Soldiers. Loved seeing my old unit crest on the front of Snake's Huey. But as an E8... I was never a "d*ck just to be a d*ck" (I hope)

Awesome selection of movies! BTW, I recognized another actor. @18:23, the bald headed gentleman is Martin Balsam who played Admiral Husband Kimmel in the 1970 movie Tora! Tora! Tora! The good Pearl Harbor movie!

The German personnel carrier Zugkraftwagen is the real McCoy. The movie vehicle is on display at the American Heritage Museum in Hudson, MA.

I watch The Dirty Dozen couple weeks ago, it's a great Sunday Afternoon movie.

My uncle Ernest was in the Army way back in the 50’s stationed in New Jersey, he was part of an Artillery crew.

@18:19 The original "Look at me, I am the captain now".

My father-in-law was a Crewchief for four tours in Vietnam. A friend of his was a pilot at LZ X-ray his first pointed out two minor mistakes in We We're Soldiers. Bad ass movie!

Charles Bronson did "see some stuff" as a matter of fact. He went to work in the Pennsylvania coal mines when he was 12 to support his family and later served as a tailgunner in a bomber plane during WW2.

The elderly man @18:23 is the original Commander McHale (Ernest Borgnine).
