An incredible and heartbreaking war drama.
I caught this film many years ago on cable. I could've been around ten the first time that'd seen it or around that age. The begining of the film was really disturbing to me, but that really didn't stop in one place it kept happening throughout the film. It builds so well. The performances, to me are flawless, especially from the two leads, Wings Hauser and R. Lee Ermey. I caught this movie on an encore channel that was called 'True', for true drama and i don't think it's around anymore. This film is amazing and it's an incredible shame that it's not on DVD because it really should be. Honestly it's just as good as anyother of the war films that were done on this particular war. How anyone sold this film short, i have no idea. Brian-Trenchard Smith should be incredibly proud to have made a picture so great. His heart was clearly in this picture because it's just so moving. It's not like a dumbed down action flick. In the film you feel bad for both sides. The Americans and The Vietnamese, they're clearly both victims of the war. They should have a minor special edition atleast with a commentary track for this.

I first saw this movie along time ago.To me it deserve a five star rating. for being a good Viet-Nam War movie that is believable.It is my favorite.

how to make a customer happy
I purchased a vhs copy of firebase glora the seller send a poor copy I complained and he went through a lot of searching to get me a good copy I know that he in fact purchased a copy from another seller at retail cost and by doing so he actually lost money on the transaction All this just to make good on a sale .This seller is great to do business with I would buy from him any time I see him advertised.

Deserves DVD
It is a shame that this movie is not on DVD. Two other movies about Vietnam should also be on DVD, "The Boys In Company C" and "Purple Hearts". I am a Vietnam Veteran, having served with Foxtrot Co. 2/26 3rd Marine Division(5-68 thru 12-68). Salute to those who gave their all in the Vietnam War. Semper-Fidelis.

best vietnam movie ever-bar none
There is a reason this movie got more five star ratings than any other, it deserves it!!! This is a great movie! It will go down in history as a claasic and it should! If you don't own this ***** movie your collection is incomplete. Maybe someday this movie will be remastered on DVD but don't hold your breath. get it before they are ungettable.
