<p dir="auto">I'm a year late, but there is no evidence that Wolfe was a graduate of the USMA at West Point. In point of fact, he wears a college sweatshirt at one point in the film. I don't recall right now what it was (Ohio State, perhaps) but it wasn't West Point.<br />
Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.</p>

<p dir="auto">fair point, texas. a misplaced officer in a <em>beep</em> situation with an insane staff sergeant. wolfe also pisses me off because he was siding with barnes after elias informed the captain of barnes's violent <em>beep</em> either way, i'm not fan of wolfe (although mark moses is great in the role). i also wonder why barnes was adamant to warren about needing junior for the ambush when tex is wounded and gardner is killed. was barnes quietly hoping junior would be KIA sooner rather than later? and i love the stare barnes gives junior, knowing damn well he fell asleep on watch. not taylor.</p>

<p dir="auto">One thing I'll give Wolfe credit for, he was a Westpoint graduate and reasonably intelligent. He belonged in the rear and NOT out in the bush as a Platoon Commander! A logistics or supply officer would have been good for him with a Senior NCO or more seasoned officer mentoring him!</p>

<p dir="auto">junior is a whiny lame-ass, but i think johnson's great in the role. the whole damn cast is great. not a lightweight among them. but i'd say the more homicidal soldiers are worse than the cowards. barnes had some depth, but that doesn't excuse his actions as a semi-suicidal psycho, driven crazy by his unapologetic hatred of the enemy. the man had witnessed way too many deaths of his men (notice his scenes when sanderson and sal are killed and they find manny's body) and went bollocks. this explains things, but doesn't excuse them. bunny's a prick, seemingly a young punk set loose to do anything he wants and has now become sadistic and vicious (if he's not killing people, he kills animals). this makes them both worse than junior, who belongs in the coward category. even then, junior takes a backseat to o'neill and arguably wolfe, who are not just cowards, but either total ass-kissers or <em>beep</em> junior's full of <em>beep</em> when he falls asleep on watch and blames taylor, but o'neill talks a lotta <em>beep</em> he can't back up and throws around his slightly higher-rank like he's more important than he actually is. wolfe's no delight either as a pathetic, ineffective leader who's not only scared of everyone, but walked over by freaks like barnes and called out on his <em>beep</em> by real soldiers like elias. junior was someone who just badly needed his ass kicked and sent on his way. he, at least, acknowledges how crazy barnes and bunny are after the village slaughter. junior's irritating as hell, but o'neill and wolfe are just as chicken <em>beep</em> also, barnes shoots eliasthat makes him far worse than junior.</p>

<p dir="auto">Chris could not or would not do such a thing. The first few months out in the bush, you're a $h!tbird and have no authority against anybody. Even Lt. Wolfe had no power. Maybe if he'd come from an inner-city or country bumpkin background, it would have been different</p>

<p dir="auto">I know Reggie Johnson didn't have much of a career after this movie and I couldn't picture him playing a character much different than he did in this film. From what I heard, he grew up in South Central L.A. or Compton.</p>

<p dir="auto">My father was in Vietnam from 1967-1969. He said that there were people like Junior in every platoon. There was always some racist in every platoon. Be it black, white or hispanic.<br />
He thought that the actor who played Junior played the character perfect.</p>

<p dir="auto">Hoyt was the one who, when Taylor went off on them for raping the girls, said "what's your problem Taylor, she's a fcking dink." Dark haired guy with a mustache. And yeah, he was definitely a douche. I didn't like Junior, he was a jerk and a coward, but Bunny was  still worse. Junior at the very least had misgivings about what Barnes did in the Village. "A Christian don't go around a village cuttin off heads and sht." And I have to say, Reggie Johnson was fantastic in the role. It's too bad he didn't do much else.<br />
Saying "I apologize" is the same as saying "I'm sorry." Except at a funeral.</p>
