"Heartbreak Ridge"

This is not one of Clint Eastwood's better films. He plays a hard boiled Marine gunnery sargent assigned to shape up a group of misfits and turn them into a fighting unit. His superior has never seen combat while Eastwood has been in the Korean War and done three tours in Nam. The movie ends with the invasion of Greneda. Along the way we see the usual training clioches and a fair number of barroon fist fights. "full Metal Jacket" and "Jarhead" are much better films about the Marine Corps.
