I watched a lot with my dad growing up, but the older I get the more I value human life and well...these men and women sacrifice so much for all of us. The images from the film stay with me long after the movie is over and I just don't want those images in my brain. So I give them all the respect, but I can't watch the films. I just can't without waking up and seeing the blood and the torture. Can't do it. I'm a wimp.<br /> Sylviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08739086544916478044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535414384309157179.post-64964711089712797432015-01-25T17:01:35.234-06:002015-01-25T17:01:35.234-06:00Hi, Angela!

We Were Soldiers is one of Handsome's favorites.

The impact these movies have on our youth is what inspires them to enlist. My heart goes out to all families with active members in the military. I recently watched American Sniper and was greatly moved by the life he led during and after active duty.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00669941785978895075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535414384309157179.post-69948374877759953702015-01-24T06:51:00.699-06:002015-01-24T06:51:00.699-06:00I couldn't do a TCM war movie marathon, but th...I couldn't do a TCM war movie marathon, but there are some -- those with more of a human interest angle -- that I've watched.

Very hard for them. <br /><br />Remember them all! should be our battle cry. <br /><br />Thank you for posting, my friend!Vicki Batman, sassy writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13846704675542248648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535414384309157179.post-89899027270392678542015-01-23T09:16:36.031-06:002015-01-23T09:16:36.031-06:00Hi, Vicki ...

The story is such that I can't not see it.<br /><br />I would also like to mention that I watched the few war movies done about Vietnam ... those are the soldiers that we conveniently swept under the rug. <br /><br />Remember them all. Our parent's who fought for us, our brothers, our nephews and someone's son who is out there today in harm's way.
