To The Shores Of Tripoli starring Marine O'Hara

There is not any really good movie about the Marines that come to mind right away. 'Flags of Our Father's was very bad.

Every time I see a movie about Marines I always see how long it takes before Hollywood gets something wrong. Some or all of the following things will happen at some point in the movie, that will not happen in real life:
1. Calling a rifle/weapon a "gun". Won't happen.
2. Calling a Corpsman a "medic". Won't happen.
3. Referring to a Sergeant as "Sarge". Won't happen.
4. When receiving an order and not replying "AyeAye". Probably won't happen. At least not in my time.
5. And of course the mother of them all. Referring to the Marines as "soldiers". Absolutely, positively will not happen. This one really sends me over the edge.
I had to get this off of my chest.
I'm sure there are more. Fellow Marines can add to what I've missed.
i feel ya ... cause hollywood NEVER gets anything wrong about something ...

What's your favorite Marine movie? Platoon or Apocalypse Now?
