Sorry yeah that's Jarhead. Haven't seen american sniper then.

I didn't like that american one where they're after Osama and do all that torturing. Very wrong stuff.

They made it in the fields of Bovingdon near the old ww2 runway where the flying Fortresses used to land.

@Dan funny u should have mentioned this movie, there was a programme on TV last night that I saw a bit of. It was about the American Navy Seal Team 6. They are Americas most elite squad, they get to test EVERY piece of cutting edge tech that is produced for warfare, if they like it, it is then brought into service with their recommendations on whether it stays as it is or is modified to their spec! Anyway turns out they are the team that rid us of the most wanted man in the world! Hoorah!
Very interesting programme, gonna try find a re run of it.

It's not an industry that impresses me to be honest. I don't hold veterans that chose to go to war themselves very highly. Those that were forced I feel sorry for more than admire. A horrible industry usually led by money these days and power back in the day. So I don't usually enjoy war related films or documentaries.
