Star Bobby Diamond best known for playing Dobie Gillis's cousin Dunky. My friend was an NCO in the 82nd, he gives this film a thumbs up, many of the location shots he recognized as still being around Fort Bragg(now Fort Liberty) in the late 1970's.
Anybody that jumps out of a perfectly good airplane or Baby Huey you know not to mess with them because there's something not right with them upstairs in their head
1962, I think we still had military advisers in Nam but after that things got hot and more US military was sent their. Like the one guy said he joined the Airborne because he knew he was going to get drafted anyway.
As p71 below says, it was Eddie Slovak. Made into a film: The Execution of Private Eddie Slovik. Martin Sheen? Not a bad film, and certainly much better than this! Lol
LOL! Horse crap NCO's, if they aren't stealing the Russian recruit's pay they are sexually assaulting them. Promotions over the rank of captain require bribes to the senior officers. Eventually China will take back the Asian territory the Russians stole in the 1800's, then make the rest of Russia their underlings.

What’s a baby Huey ?
@@tomcutler151 sorry, Tom ….. it’s called a Huey…… not a baby Huey…..
Baby Huey is a cartoon character
@@cbrown9555 My unit used to call them Baby Hueys if that's okay with you

"Dunky Gillis", he and Bob Denver were very funny in their scenes together.
I thought they executed Private Eddie Slocum for desertion during WW2 ?
I think that was Pvt Eddie Slovik

Let them keep their hair? Know it’s not real. Plus caught smoking and threw a butt…would have been searching for everyone on post.
America before Lyndon Johnson was a GREAT place. And FJB. Ft. Bragg forever
Bragg was a lousy general, didn't deserve to be honored. Should have been renamed Fort Ridgeway instead of generic "Liberty".
Watching from the largest country in the world 🌍! The Russian military is Tough, Brutal, Unforgiving and that's the way were brought up! 🇷🇺
