Should have realized that for the many times I've watched the movie. That's a pretty big miss by the filmmakers seeing as how the first wave at Juno suffered heavy casualties. You got a legitimate beef there.

Thinking back over it now, you're right. I don't remember any Canadian contribution in the film. Were we at war with Canada at the time or just pissed off at all the draft dodgers headin' north?!

Don't think there were many draft dodgers headin' north in 1962.

Watched The Great Raid on cable last night. Not a big commercial success, but one of my favorites.

Biggest, most successful rescue mission in the history of the US military.

The Great Raid was a surprise for me. For some reason I didn't think it was going to be any good. When I saw it it became my favorite Pacific war movie.

Last Movie I saw was Blessed By Fire and it was the first movie treatment on the Faulklands war (Although with a definate Argentine slant) have seen.
Grim and hard to watch in places it shows no glory and has some of the most chilling night combat scenes I have seen in a movie.
I like it but some Brits my feel different.

"The good the bad and the ugly". One of my all time favourites and one of the all time great movies.
