Trivia:
The music playing when Brenner and Sunhill find Moore dead is "O Fortuna" from Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana".

Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: In a common Hollywood error, Gen. Campbell refers to Fort MacCallum as a base. The army doesn't refer to their installations as bases. A real Army officer would have referred to the installation as a post.

It is a must seen movie :
- First time viewer will be surprised by the ending. - second time viewer will be a woman considering that the road is still long to fairness and that everyday is a challenge.
- Relation between daughter and fathers are exploited on a very personal level.
Travolta is very convincing and suitable in uniform.
Inspiring film for those who see it : if the message does not hit you, it will leave an impact.
Big plus is the sound track very adapted to the story.
