What can we afford

The last time I watched a film crying, it should have been watching Armageddon Doomsday, Bruce Willis’s American-style heroic commercial film. The father sacrificed himself for his daughter’s lover. Team returned to the earth and sounded the ending song, lying on his side. I burst into tears on the bed, not for the sacrifice of the hero, but because the father was for the sacrifice of his daughter. It’s very strange that this kind of thing happened for a commercial movie. The old man was very surprised when he discovered it. Now I still remember how surprised he was at that time

. The protagonist, an officer who had been sacrificed 3 years ago, let Serling withstand the pain in his heart and follow the not so smooth road, and finally made a complete report, from admiration, to doubt, and then to the boss. Pressure, tenacity of investigation, and pain when the water came to the bottom, Mag Ryan--Captain Karen Emma Walden, as a woman, paid more than other male colleagues in order to become a military officer, and left her beloved. My daughter, she stepped on the road of no return in the Gulf War. Although she had planned to sacrifice and was prepared to be injured, there would be accidents, but she did not expect that she would end up being injured under the guns of her subordinates. She tried to make a mutiny after covering up. Morpheus and others, waiting for more support and stretchers to get her, died of their own napalm because Morpheus was afraid of being punished by the mutiny. Perhaps she had died of light weapons used by the Iraqi army before the petrol bomb, or perhaps the gunshot wound in the abdomen caused by the midnight mutiny caused her to die in pain. In any case, she was injured in the abdomen and was defended by the enemy. When the rescue was imminent, she still covered the vain mutiny a few hours ago and pointed the M-60 muzzle at her soldiers, because she was their officer. She cannot be ashamed of her honor as an officer, although she did not think of her last encounter

Serling finally learned of the cause of Walden’s death from Ilario and produced a report that could be recognized by him. At the moment when Walden’s daughter Anne Marie accepted the honor of the President of the United States, he walked in because of his wrong command. And Boylar, who was killed by a tank commanded by Serling, hit the home of his friend Boylar. He appeared in formal wear, with a medal of honor on his chest, a medal for his friend’s life... Tell Boylar’s ​​parents the truth about the matter. Faced with Boylar's father with tears in his eyes, he was saying, I ordered the fire, I killed him... At the
funeral, the army lied, and I lied too. I can only ask for your forgiveness...
Boylar's father, looking at the same sad wife, finally
I know this to Sarling , this burden, one day you must let go...
Tears finally fell from Sarling's eyes and slid past his equipment. tortured cheeks, round and round with tears in my eyes for a long time has been sliding down together


Gentlemen, at graduation I want to say to you is: go forward, go to the correct command, discreet staff, always vigilant, deliberate judgment . And, most importantly, use all your mind and body, all your soul, and all your courage to protect your subordinates and the United States of America.

Matt Damon is also in the film. A medical soldier who hesitated to stop Morpheus’ murder before the incendiary bomb was dropped, so that he took drugs after returning to China. Injection between
his toes... In the film, he is thin and sick. His cheeks are completely recessed and he is not as energetic and strong as Bonn’s identity. Only the full forearm muscles show that he is originally strong. Maybe, because of this film, he has not suffered less. The pain of weight loss
Sarling, played by Denzel Washington, has been drunk because of Boylar’s ​​affairs and cannot tell anyone, including his beloved wife, until he completes this investigation and is forgiven by Boylar’s ​​parents. When he arrived at his home, his wife saw him with a relieved expression. Unexpectedly, Walden was in the process of returning to the base after completing the death of Boylar...

My dear mom and dad are it. The big push is
really going on. the front lines, I am a little afraid of
not injured or killed, a little, but not much
I only regret that you never see, never see Anne Marie grow up
but I know she will have the best care and most Okay,
what I’m really afraid of is that I will let my subordinates down.
They rely on me. They give me their lives,
but I can’t let them down

    Clue characters, hidden protagonists, storytelling well told, stories of humanity at war.

    It wasn't good, but the ending was okay. It is not news that friendly casualties are often a considerable number in wars. Considering that soldiers often threw grenades into the shacks of higher-ranking officers when the Vietnam War was drawing to a close... The female captain might consider a different way to handle disputes with subordinates.

Courage Under Fire quotes

  • Tony Gartner, Washington Post: General, Colonel Sterling's order to activate lights, was that a standard response to enemy infiltration of the lines?

    General Hershberg: At the critical moment, in spite of terrible losses, Colonel Sterling didn't hesitate to act. Ordering those tanks to turn on their lights saved the lives of God knows how many of our men. Heroic acts arise out of desperate circumstances.

    Tony Gartner, Washington Post: I have no trouble at all believing Colonel Sterling is a hero.

    General Hershberg: Like Captain Karen Walden. Did you know, Mr Gartner, that for the first time a woman is being considered for the medal of honor for her performance under fire? And, um... Colonel Sterling is just finishing up the inquiry. How's that going, Nat?

    Nathaniel Serling: I think, uh... in order to honor a soldier like Karen Walden, we have to tell the truth, General, about what happened over there. The whole, hard... cold truth. And until we do that, uh, we dishonor her and every soldier who died, who gave their life for their country.

    [Colonel Sterling gets up out of his chair, walks over to General Hershberg and throws his report on the desk]

    Nathaniel Serling: My full report General.

  • Nathaniel Serling: How did you get to be on Captain Walden's chopper?

    Monfriez: Used to hang around medivac units, sir.

    Nathaniel Serling: Did you want to become a medic?

    Monfriez: Wanted to hump a nurse once, does that count?

    [both laugh]

    Monfriez: See, I play poker. Do you want to know a poker secret, sir?

    Nathaniel Serling: Always.

    Monfriez: Find out what the people you are playing against are interested in, and pretend you're interested in it, too. They start running off at the mouth and don't pay no attention to their cards. Medivac crew love to talk about their choppers.

    [hits his steering wheel]

    Monfriez: Paid for this baby.
