The Siege of Firebase Gloria

Wings Hauser,R. Lee Ermey,Gary Hershberger,Albert Popwell

The film's thin veneer of social propriety (the story of how the VietCong came under Hanoi's control) is merely a cover for a rolicking old-time battle tale, complete with a hard-tack sergeant, his rebellious sidekick, and a demoralized base that needs to be whipped into shape before the VietCong attack.—Binyamin Appelbaum
