I never seen any grunts with a 8mm shooting footage. Only times I seen them was with the news guys, like CBS. The Corps I suppose had their own film guys working in the field but I never seen them either. They probablly only went out when a col. or gen. was going to be there barking orders in the heat of battle Wink

His movies are for home use only. They make him look like the fool and the arrogant bastard he is for showing them in public & expecting us to believe him as a credible veteran.
I was 0311 over there but I managed to use an 8mm movie camera three times before I lost it in a card game. Just some rear echelon stuff & of our squad dog that was run over by a 6X. I have the film someplace. Not the dead dog! When he was alive! Egads!
There are some valid questions about the filming, but I think it will just be a distraction from the real issues:
Phony medals
missing after action reports
missing fit reps
missing medical records
missing award records
missing honesty
missing main stream media
But the truth can't be buried forever. Thanks SBVs.
