  • You must understand, this is a movie during that time (1955). When the movie was made, the American pubic could not hear the frases. Or the langue that when I was a DI used. Even after the Ribbon Creek incedent we had spy's checking to see if we used that type of langue. This move was very well put together and I have a great deal of respect for the Marines that have endured the pain and sarifices they made and are still making. So Please do not let that disrepect this move.

  • I happen to be in 2nd Bn and lived within barracks shown within the movie. Not to mention I to was a D.I. And lived a similar life as Sgt. Moore. Semper Fi.

  • @Mrmetichi Then you should have corrected the language used in the movie. I don't recall hearing "maggots", "motherfucker", "cocksucker" or anything remotely similar. This movie was nearly vicious enough to convey the true experience.

  • Can you imagine a movie ad like this today?

  • Why can't this movie be posted?!!!

  • Jackie Loughery was the very first Miss U.S.A., 1952.

  • Class movie, loved every second. I saw it on Full Movie World . com

  • I was 12-years-old when this movie was released in 1957. I joined the Army at age 18 because I could not determine the gender of a sand flea.

    Julie London, who played Nurse Dixie McCall on:"Emergency" was Jack Webb's first wife. (Bobby Troup, "Dr Joe Early", was Julie's second husband. Jackie Loughery, who is featured in "The D.I." was Jack's 3rd wife.

    Is there anyone out there who has his staccato voice delivery? I don't think so. If his words were bullets, he would be a machine gun.

  • we were laughing in ranks /talking jumping jacks all night ..lol

  • I think I saw t this moviie @ MOOV ZON, COM just google for the link above

  • The heavy-handed, ham-fisted acting of Jack Webb.

  • OOOHHH RAHHH! Still one of my favorite movies.

  • This movie scared the hell out of me. I mean, I didn't know a female sand fly from a male sand fly. I joined the army instead. I could live with being called a maggot.

  • They played this movie in my ROTC class in high school! Talk about serious motivation here!!

  • their are two quotes I love, "you had your last laff when you first meet me". and "my idea of the perfect girl is a swinging blond who own her own liquer store"!! that is what I look for in a girl too!!!!!

  • That is what ANY of us Jarheads look for in a girl !!!! OOOO RAH !!! LOL

  • this is the best motivation film ever for anyone with the blues, feeling sorrry for themselves, any where, any way, any how. you can't watch it and have any excuses afterward!
