Barnes.
I also hated every soldier on "Team Elias" that let Chris go head to head against Barnes alone. When Barnes brought a blade into it, he should have gotten a butt stroke to the head with an M-16.
In the immortal words of Bunny, "Did you see that head come apart?"
Bye, bye, Barnes.
Internet courage is such a yawn. -

Not a fan of Barnes, but I did admire his no nonsense leadership style.
That quarrel in the hooch between Taylor and Barnes was a soldiers fight, one-on-one, happens all the time on deployment and occasionally in garrison. Sure, "Team Elias" could've jumped Barnes but then what? Kill him in base camp and risk getting court-martialed. Jump him, beat his ass and risk getting an assaulting an NCO charge and hope Barnes doesn't get his team to do some payback. I think 'Team Elias' handled that well. -

Junior. He was whiny. He shirked his duties and blamed others. He blamed white man for his problems. He complained about village atrocities yet he joined in(he was one of the rape team). He chickened out and abandoned his teammate in the foxhole.
Barnes was monstrous but he was an ends-justifies-the-means. Bunny was a sadistic psychopath but Kevin Dillon made him likable(when he wasn't committing atrocities). Oneill was a swaggering coward but he was funny. Sgt Warren(aka Candyman) was pretty much a nonentity, just like the other teammates who didn't side with Elias.
I liked all the guys who sided with Elias. Elias was my number one favorite person. -

I look at it like this, who did I hate enough that I wanted them to die? Junior was a jerk but when he got killed I felt bad for him and I hated the enemy for killing him. I even felt bad for the Lt. when he got blinded then killed.
However, I did not feel bad when Barnes got killed. So, I hated Barnes the most.

Bunny, by far Barnes may have been turned into something resembling a psychopath by the war, but Bunny was the real deal. He just couldn't wait to murder, rape and pillage. He loved the war because he could get away with anything, he even says so. Loathsome character.

Yeah I remember a war memoir by Matthew Brennan (he did three tours with the 1st Air Cav's recon unit, the 1st of the 9th); he mentioned a cavalryman who served in his scout platoon he named 'Gould'a tough, very very canny soldier but he really thrived in combat. In fact, he said 'Gould' looked more boyish and innocent at the end of his tour than at the start. And as he put it, 'don't cross him.'

O'Neill was a major league douche bag. Please click on
for the best of O'Neill.
I loved how every time Barnes put a cigarette in his mouth O'Neill would hurry to light it. It reminded me of when I was a teenager. Whenever a pretty girl put a cigarette in her mouth horny guys would hurry to light it. -

I thought I saw Tex's hands bloodied up & getting bandaged but it's been nearly 10 years since I last saw it so who knows, maybe I saw wrong?
