This series is just god-awful. The producers or screenwriters fall into the comfortable military stereotypes where they think being in the military is like being at boot camp. They make the finest fighting force in the world look like bumbling idiots because this is Hollywood's chance to make their anti-war/anti-Bush statement.It's really too bad because the book and Rolling Stone article were very good. Nothing like this pile of garbage. I can't believe Evan Wright signed off on this crap. He must have been paid a lot of money to make buffoons of the men he was embedded with in Iraq.I am a Marine. I don't believe any REAL Marine infantryman would say there is any validity to this series. If you want realism, check out "Blood Stripes" or "Street Fight in Iraq." Both EXCELLENT books. Not movies. Hollyweird will never make a movie which depicts Marines in a positive light. Not in this millenium, anyway.Semper Fi
