Is there someone who served in the legendary Green Berets?
I’m italian, and the green berets – since I was youg – represented for me the real spirt of USA army.
(I’ve bought the John Wayne Green Berets DVD and The song o f Barry Sadler…)
Tks and good luck!!!

Tank you, is very clear what you say about the G.B. and thanks for not using a too difficult english.
I just got out of the army about 4 yrs ago. 2 of my good friends are in special forces (green berets) and I know a few others. They were in the infantry when i was in and both of them went to sfas (special forces assesment and selection) and now they have both recently finished the Q course (qualification course). ONe of them is done with his robin sage and the other is finishing language school. so they are both green berets now. Although they are mainly foce multipliers….they have also been called upon to do behind the lines conventional missions, like target identification and small search and destroy missions as well.

The Green Berets [Blu-ray] $9.48 Anyone who fought in Vietnam can tell you that the war bore little resemblance to this propagandistic action film starring and codirected by John Wayne. But the film itself is not nearly as bad as its reputation would suggest; critics roasted its gung-ho politics while ignoring its merits as an exciting (if rather conventional and idealistic) war movie. Some notorious mistakes were made–in the fi… |
