This film captures the truth about Guerrilla warfare


Folks, this movie captures the true spirit of what it is to fight a Guerrilla War and to be a Guerrilla Warfighter. Guerrilla Wars always have and always will be dirty, secret, small side shows to Big Wars and Real Politics. But the are very important, none the less. As such, they require a unique person to fight them, they must be believers first and foremost. Yet,once they accomplish their mission, they people who sent them, often the big army or government, wants to write them off or forget them altogether. In that way, this story is similar to Lawrence of Arabia and all the other unconventional and unorthodox warriors of history. That is why you see the parallels. But having lived it myself, I assure you, it has happened recently and will again. And those who fought it, will be the face the locals will remember, good and bad.
It is a sad story. But it seems to be the way of it. Hopefully, that is helpful to some one.

They also don't get rolling until a lot of people get wiped out.
