    Seriously.

    I've watched the opening 20 minutes of FMJ a dozen times at least. It's simply the best, funniest, shit I've even seen. And it goes on for a long time - which is why I had to go with R. Lee instead of Duvall.

    The jelly donut scene really sealed it for me.

    Wasn't R Emery a REAL Marine?

    I agree that part of the movie is must see every time.

    Can't remember when I last watched the Vietnam part

    If memory serves, he was initially a technical advisor for FMJ, and Kubrick put him into the role because he was so authentic while training the actors. Was also outstanding (and similarly red-assed) in The Boys From Company C, which is where I first saw him.
