It's about time....

Rating: 10/10 (18 March 2002)

It's about time a war movie like "We were soldiers" was made. Other movies like "Saving Private Ryan" kept us Latinos and blacks from being seen as we fought for our country [the good old U.S.A.]. Being of Puerto Rican descent, and one who served in Viet Nam "66-'67 with the First Air Cavalry Air Mobile 5/7, 2/7, and wounded with the 2/7 D Company, I felt proud at the end of the movie, knowing every ethnic group that fought in the war was recognized. There are those [very few though] that do not like this movie, and say it was not worth watching. Well, they were either draft dodgers back then or people that are not in support of what America is doing now to protect ourselves from the terrorists who hate everything America stands for. I speak for all Americans that have served and fought for their country. You talked the talk and walked the walk. God Bless America and Garry Owen!
