This series is a tribute to John Wayne's film career. We have enjoyed MANY hours watching him in both western and military films.
Micro cache, bring your own pencil. Watch out for desert critters.
The Green Berets is a 1968 war film featuring John Wayne, Geroge Takei, David Janssen, Jim Hutton and Aldo Ray, nominally based on the eponymous 1965 book by Robin Moore, though the screenplay has little relation to the book.
At Fort Bragg, newspaper reporter George Beckworth (David Janssen) is at a Special Forces briefing about the American military involvement in the war in Vietnam. The briefing (at Gabriel Demonstration Area, named for SGT Jimmy Gabriel, first SF soldier killed in Vietnam) includes a demonstration and explanation of the whys and wherefores of participating in that Asian war. The budget was $7,000,000 and the box office receipts were $11,000,000. The release date was June 19, 1968.
