One thing I noticed was the rifle rack full of M1s in the barracks. Imagine that today! I was in the Army and went through basic training in 1974 at Fort Leonard Wood. I remember much coarser language and getting pecked hard on the bridge of my nose by the brim of the Drill Sergeant’s Smoky the Bear hat. Lots of push-ups too.

The Hayes office wouldn’t let Holly wood get course back then. Made for a much better movie too.
I didn’t care for how Tribes ended.
