One of my favorite films ever. I had to actually order it from Australia (sorry...no ebay back then) to the US. Best USD ever spent. I would love to be able to find it on dvd. Can't decide if this or The Light Horsemen is my favorite Australian film. If there are any other military-type films from Australia (of this nature), please, SOMEONE let me know. "F***N RAIN!!!" :-) CHEERS!
cant find a good copy of this flick and it sucks. They put every shitty movie that was ever made on DVD and they dont put this out. Talk about a bunch of assholes.
He wasn't an RSM, he was just a Warrant Officer Class 2 that 'worked for a living' and had shitbag Lance Corporals chasing down stick books, transistor radios and fucking bin lids for him...
A great movie also with the late, great hilariously funny Graham Kennedy who plays Harry. He died in about 2006 I think! Great shame as he was a very funny bloke indeed. I have this film on video & the line "agh Get Fucked"....."WHAT?"....."I said Get Fucked you great beer sodden bag of shit" has to take the biscuit for funniness from any film ever! I saw the cut version of this film on TV back in about 1981 & recorded it then & have never ever seen it on TV again! Best Vietnam Movie of all!
Right! your all on a charge!....well you better make it murder cuz im gunna knock your fucking head right off!!!! im a senior NCA dont forget TOUGH LUCK!
I was lucky...I just go a DVD Copy of this for Region 1...US/Canada last week. Now I can watch it all the time!!! The best on Vietnam I have ever seen... Check it out if you can... David

I love this movie. You can't get it in the states, due to codes for DVD players.

@veteran2000 you are not joking. I ran across this movie in the early 80's on VHS. I would love to see it again. Have a cold one for me, mate.
