I was hoping to find a website that I could use to view combat footage and other activities from deployments?

I've lived on the Military Channel and seen almost every video on youtube. Just wondering if there was a better place to see what its like.

Thanks in advance.

Nothing you can see on film can teach you "what it's like", believe me.

I understand. I just enjoy watching it. I love war movies, especially some of the older ones like Tora! Tora! Tora!, Midway, Flag of our Fathers/Letters from Iwo Jima, and Full Metal Jacket

Some of the newer ones are good too like Blackhawk Down and The Kingdom (more FBI)

I just wanted to see some real footage I guess.

Damn, you know that "***out of u and me" thing has made that word damn near impossible to use lol even when appropriate.

I guess I'm gonna start going with presume or conclude, or maybe hypothesize. Life is going to be ROUGH in the Marines if I use those words i presume lol

Thanks guys, I'm going to B&N today to pick up those books.

Yes sir, I'm well aware. Thank you for that site. Great site. I believe my great uncle is on that wall. I haven't been there since I was 6 so I don't remember.

Great website, thanks again.
