I liked this show..., 1 November 2001
Author: Scott from A galaxy far, far away

Although I was only 10 when this show was on, it quickly became on my all-time favorites. Being the son of a career Marine and Vietnam vet, I caught a glimpse of the hell my father went through when he was fresh out of college. It shed new light on a subject most Americans would just as soon forget. ****(out of 5).
