Anecdotes
Based on the book of the same name. A memoir written by John "Chick" Donohue and J.T. Molloy about Donohue's eight weeks in Vietnam delivering beer to his friends and other soldiers in combat.

Gaffes
"Coates is seen wearing a kaffiyeh (a traditional Arab head scarf) around his neck. The kaffiyeh did not become a fashion accessory among westerners until the 1980s."

Coatses is a war correspondent, so he would have traveled all over the world, and could have well reported from the Middle East, where he could have easily acquired a kaffiyeh.

Citations
Chickie Donohue: Don't be dumb, Arthur. This ain't a war no more. It's mass murder.
Coates: That's what war is, Chick. It's one giant crime scene.

Générique farfelu
SPOILER: at the end of the movie, we find out what happened to Tommy Minogue. The info reads as follows: "Tommy Minogue willingly sacrificed his life to save the lives of his commanding officer and the soldiers in his company. There is a grass roots effort to award him the medal of honor."

It's like an onion.

It's like an onion. Many layers working correctly together. The title may sound like a bad late night teen movie but quickly showed its many layers it to be much more a social commentary than a war movie. Excellent cast overall and the leads were particularly stellar. Based on real events and people, within a short real life time-frame of 1967 America and the Tet offensive, lies this very good film. Partially a heavy dose of beers and bros from Philly juxtaposed with 1960's America's unflinching coursework on a culture of war escalation like we did in 1945, says Bill Murray as The Colonel. Those sentiments juxtaposed with the Prophetic words from Viet Nam War Correspondent, Russell Crowe, "It isn't the truth that hurts us. It's the lying that hurts...". Well worth your time!
