How "honoring" became: awarding

First of all, explain that this article has nothing to do with the content: after

reading the content introduction, there is a sentence: "Serving as an idle position in the delegation department", I really don't understand what kind of department the so-called "delegation" is.
Search it on Baidu, there are 678 articles, but except for some "switches", they all use the same brief introduction of the film, which shows the power of communication in the Internet age.

After thinking about it, could it be a typo in "honoring"? I still use Baidu and add the keyword "Karen Walden", and there are 42 articles.

This shows that there are more than 600 identical explanatory texts for the same movie on the Internet, but only 40 articles have noticed this typo and corrected it (but I don’t want to know how many of these 40 articles are passed on to each other)

. horrible!

    It's not complicated, but the story is really good. It's a bit of Rashomon, but it's not exactly that everyone chooses a story that suits their own interests for their own purposes.

    3.5, the main theme model that can be referenced in China, although the plot is still the same ideal and divorced from reality, but the advantage is that the serious image of Sarin's characters is maintained from multiple angles, so that the audience always focuses on Sarin's actions, and the rest of the characters are few strokes Playing a supporting role, and finally using Sarin's struggle to bring out the theme, small and beautiful enough for a film of limited duration.

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.
