Another vote for Midway.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Never saw the movie but love reading about Midway. The United States Navy kicked ass. Those torpedo crews were some of the bravest heroes America has ever produced. Basically sacrificed themselves so the dive bombers could get a clean shot.

Midway.


Character is not developed in moments of temptation and trial. That is when it is intended to be used.

When I was a kid I loved Tora, Tora, Tora for the action, now though I'll have to go with Midway because it has more naval strategy in it. My dad was stationed on Destroyers when I was growing up. It wasn't until that movie that I understood their purpose was to escort the Carriers. Going on a cruise was a bad term in our household because it meant not having a father for 6 mos. to a year. I can truly say that my father was a Vietnam combat vet although truthfully all he did was stay on a ship that shot off BIG guns towards the Vietcong.


Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

My grandfather served in midway and his destroyer got hit by a zipper head kamakzee plane. He and only 25 other sailors survived. I feel like midway shows more war like scenes. Tora tells more overall how we got there and where the ball got dropped story but midway shows the true grit we fought. That Grumman hellcat fought the Mitsubishi tooth and nail. And we won

Both are great, but Midway gets a slight nod.

Thank you for sharing your dad for our country.

I believe President George H W Bush was a torpedo plane pilot in WWII.

Thank my mom. She raised 3 kids on military pay by herself for large chunks of time and did it quite successfully.
