I don't know how many people know this, but Sam Elliott became great friends with Command Sergeant Major Basil L. Plumley while making this excellent film. He sat next to the Command Sergeant Major's daughter during his funeral. The man was the epitome of what an NCO should be. And Sergeant Savage earned his respect on the battlefield. Sgt. Savage is also a great example of what an NCO should be.

I recently met Sgt Savage and his wife. I told them both that what he did was commensurate with the criteria for a CMOH. Those men owed their lives to him. He is a very humble and patriotic man. That God for men like him.

My dad was a Nam Vet and a Hard ass. I hated him growing up. I didn't understand him until I joined the Army myself. This movie reminds me of me and my dad. Now I finally understand him. You can actually appreciate "good days" when you actually been through some real shit. I love my Dad now and we are closer than ever.

Thank you for your service brother, and to your father as well. My uncle is a Vietnam vet himself and others in my family give him crap for some of the ways he acts. If ever in my life I hear anyone in my family say anything about him again. after serving myself. I am quick to put them in their place.

My Grandfather raised me. He was a Great Depression and WW2 Survivor. His Father left the family in the mid-30's for Alaska, so my Grandfather took care of his older Sisters, Mother and younger Brothers until he signed up for the Army months prior to Pearl Harbor. He was a soft spoken man, but as I talked to his buddies I understood who he really was. He charged into mortar and gun fire in Guinea before getting hit and medivac'd back home. To this day and 28 years after he passed I am still amazed at the lessons I learned and as a Veteran too feel closer to being who he was and raised me to be.😎👍

It took me a few re-watches to really understand this interaction. SGT major Plumley wasn’t impressed with Savages greeting’s because he has served in two wars already, and to him an ordinary work day was nothing special. To him Leading your men through hell and getting them home safely is a what a true good day feels like.

Dad served for 32 years. 14 with the Paras (UK)and 18 with the Princess Patricia’s (CDN). I remember him saying when the Canadian Airborne was disbanded because of the business in Somalia that it was a failure of command. I thought he meant the brass. Years later I watched “The Promise” British series about the Paras in Palestine (dad was there as a 20 year old after fighting from Normandy to the Baltic)and there was a scene where Para who was Jewish was beaten by the other other guys because they assumed he was feeding info to the Jewish resistance. The Sgt laid in and punched out one of the assaulters, told the rest, anymore of this and they’d answer to him. Then I understood what dad meant by leadership. It was the senior NCOs like dad that kept the army functioning properly.

The backbone of the service. They are the continuity from past to today. A professional NCO corps is vital for commande & control. The Russian army lacks that and that's a key reason Ukraine has managed to survive this long. They adopted the US practice of letting NCOs lead their men into battle, remember Ukraine had NO Army until 20 years ago when Vlad invaded the Crimea 1:28 1:28
