The Green Berets DVD
They were crack troops skilled in techniques of unconventional warfare, the soldiers of the Special Forces - and the focus of this Hollywood's first feature film about the Vietnam War. The Green Berets. John Wayne stars in and co-directs this red-white-and-blue depiction of America's Vietnam effort, based on Robin Moore's novel. Wayne wrote to President Lyndon Johnson to request military assistance for the film - and got more than enough firepower to create an impressive spectacle. Its soldiers fit the tried-and-true mould of earlier Wayne war classics like Back to Bataan and Sands Of Iwo Jima. Their heroics are timeless.
