I really dislike inaccurate war movies
15 April 2023
How many ways can they be inaccurate. Having to swim to the beach and then run an open beach in machine gun fire. The losses would have been massive, and the enemy would have made sure to have forward positions on the beach so can sweep the beach with machine gun fire. Charging in the open, will be seen an targeted. Considering that the ship was grounded long before is expected to be grounded, I realize it was a LST, so indened to go up on the beach. But for untrained troops to cross all that ocean in bad weather and not a lot die. If the battle was accurate the number killed would have been extremely high. Then for the North Koreans to let them just sit behind that berm when they had a mortar. Maybe it would have been protection against a howitzer, but not mortars. The peopel that wronte this script knew nothing of war. And really, having a UH-1 helicopter which was introduced in 1959 during the Korean War. Even MASH was not so crass. Basically extremely inaccurate.
