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.

Country: | 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?!

Country: | 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.

Country: | 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.
