What do you consider an "accurate portrayal of the US military"?

A lot of war movies aren't about the military as much as they are about the people in it and its effect on them.

Are you looking for a movie that portrays the US Military as a sword at the beck and call of the international financiers whose purpose is to extinguish popular movements around the world that impede or obstruct the progress of private capital accumulation? Like in Grenada, El Salvador, Haiti, Iraq, Egypt, Sudan etc...?

>>68760332

this desu. though delta force are the real deal.
>>
>>68759986

This. I got out of the air force in 05, and I've met plenty of based marine, navy, and army vets, but I never met another air force vet that I'd want to go hang out with. I keep running into the most tedious, pretentious twats.
>>
>>68759287
not that many, if they want to use military equipment then the military has to approve the film
>>
Being a soldier is for faggots

>>68759824
Those are more of parade only. Thats the Marine silent drill platoon. All they do is drill formations for ceremony or shows. Its actually pretty legit if you see them in person.
>>
>accurate portrayal

I got you senpai

Probably Johnny Got His Gun.

tried to watch American Sniper the other day

got to the bit where he's trying to chat up that bird at the bar and couldn't go any further

do americans actually like that shit?

>well no ma'am, I'm in the navy because I'll die for my country, now y'all have a nice day

PURE BLOODED AMERICAN HERO

>All they do is drill formations for ceremony or shows

Yet still they fuck it up

>>68759287
The only propaganda in American Sniper is that there could ever be any niggers or beaners in the navy seals let alone as instructors.
>>
>>68760926
Come now, let's not fight.

Generation Kill senpai

I cannot comprehend the mindset of someone who'd actually volunteer to do nothing but drill all day.

Like those strange creatures that populate the Guards.
>>
>>68760879
I worked at a Marine base once and talked to Marines, recruiters, trainees, etc. every single day, and only recruiters talk like that because they get fat ass paychecks for getting your skinny white ass to join the few. The proud. The Marines. And even then it's only when they're trying to sucker you in, even at the bar on base they talk like normal people about normal shit.
