Watchman~SPARTA~ Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 One of my favourite films been in my collection for a long time, huge fan of Bruce Willis even the cheesy stuff. Tears of the Sun never seems to figure in the "best war movie" discussions but for me it's one of the stand out modern conflict storylines. And yes, it reminds me of Sparta & when we are in the ARMA servers I'm often reminded of this film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skaz~SPARTA~ Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 however, we never call in air support as they did in the film. It would be awesome though, if we had a good pilot and a good radio op. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizko Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I have my favorite movies too but there's nothing like watching the real thing. 24 seconds into this video made me laugh...the hazards of fighting in shorts and no socks on. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZmJ9iYWx5o&feature=related By the way, this whole documentary is on Netflix right now. It's a National Geographic documentary called Restrepo. I believe this is an Army Airborne unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durka-Durka~SPARTA~ Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 It's the 173rd Airborne out of Italy. http://www.legionofspartans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7274&st=0&p=69879&hl=restrepo&fromsearch=1entry69879 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizko Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Towards the end of the documentary, they showed what looked like a Spartan logo. I'm not sure if that means something to that unit or if it was one of the guys that liked the movie...or someone's alma mater etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
