Country: | I think he was just old enough. He joined at the tail end of the war. In fact, I don't think he quite made it overseas before the war ended. But still, he tried to do his part. |

Its like he didnt even care. But i think he did a good job in Sands of Iwo Jima. He had some emotion and felt bad when the Marines he knew got killed.

Country: | I think he had the same emotion in all of his war movies. He was better suited for westerns than war movies.
