Fun movie.I'm the emotional type - I think I can tear up at the end of almost any movie. I loved the monologue from the final scene. Here it is:As I look back now,a lot of years later,I realize that my time in the Armywas the happiest time of my life.God knows,not because I liked the Army,and there sure was nothingto like about a war.I liked it for the mostselfish reason of all...because I was young.We all were...me and Epstein and Wykowski,Selridge,Carney, Hennessey,and even Sergent Toomey.I didn't really likemost of those guys then,but today,I love every damn one of them.Life is weird, you know?Yes, it is. 🤔
