Fake hair...... there's not too many people his age with a straight-across hairline.

Also how about making a movie about other military specialties, like tank drivers, combat controllers, PJ's, combat engineers, etc...... Pilots get too much glamour IMO.

His hair is probably CGI.

For the tank there is the movie "The Desert Fox" about the German tank commander Erwin Rommel. Badass motherfucker

And wasn't the movie "In the Army Now" with Pualy Shore about combat controllers???

The parajumpers would be pretty cool.

Combat Egineers. Guess you could count Bridge on the River Kwai and the glider soldiers from "The Longest Day". Both involve blowing up bridges.


But my guess is any movie from now on associating with the military has to show there was a small group of black people who did something and how much more awesome than white people they were. Or it has to be about how much some private hates being a soldier in the all volunteer army.

Hey now! The Tuskegee Airmen overcame great odds to become a standout outfight. But I don't think they will ever be thought of as "much more awesome" than Chenaults AVG/the Flying Tigers, Black Sheep/VMF214, or the "mighty eighth".

They should get credit for what they were.
