I feel that this image shows that even in a time of war American soldiers stood together to put up the flag of the United States of America. Our flag is being lifted to what seems to be about 5 men they have taken time out of their battle to lift the flag. Around these men it seems to be a wreckage around them maybe this area was bombed and everything came down as well as the…

One of Eddie’s friends, Peter Cole states “...he was the…

Congratulations. (Comm. S) Chief, are we going to follow the agenda? (Comm. A) Pretty close, except I think Captain McKee has a presentation that he wants to make.

The Marines Corp is one the hardest branches in the United States Military to join, because it is both physical and mentally challenging, which makes female Marines the elite of the elite. The Marines Corp treats their female Marines just like they treat…

The thief began making turns, hoping to lose some of the dead behind them, but keeping his speed down. They headed back toward Presque Isle, wanting to get across the railroad in order to have more room to maneuver. The truck slowed at Peninsular drive to check both ways, almost colliding with a pair hummers. The laser detachment was excited to see their platoon leader.

Full metal jacket is the best anti-war movie I have ever seen. As soon as the movie started, it depicted the real struggle of being in marines. I was shocked how recruits were verbally and physically abused believed to be as a part of preparation of getting into marine as a rough and tough. The scene in which Pyle shot General and himself made me really upset and scared at the same time. It made me feel that the bully and abuse in the platoon ended life of Pyle. The scene in which all recruits…
