Not quite the way it was

Rating: 2/10 (20 December 2013)

Having served in the military and did my AIT at Ft. Polk which included the Tigerland experience, I must concede that in no way did the movie reflect my experience. The Military operates within a certain Protocol which was obviously absent in the movie, furthermore a disruptive force would have been neutralized or removed from the equation ASAP.Of course the locations resembled the actual training facility as well as the barracks and the interaction of the troops which consisted of a group of men from all walks of life thrown into a living condition of close quarters that none of us were accustomed to. also the off post locations had that gritty feel of what actually transpired in that quaint little town called Leesville.
