Was Cole an aviator?
When Cole is introduced-did he have naval aviator wings on his shirt?
Cheers
Oh yeah baby, it's Stifler time woo-hoo!!share
Those are Gold Naval jump wings. 10 parachute jumps qualify. 5 jumps qualify you for the Silver wings. Jumps wings are generally worn by those Marines and Navy Corpsman serving with Reconnaissance units. MOS 8652 - Reconnaissance Man, Jump Qualified (Vietnam era) and recently 0321 - Reconnaissance Man (Permanently assigned to Recon Unit).
I honestly believe Tyrese Gibson was outstanding as COLE. He stole some of those scenes with Franco. The last, "come join me in the Marines" was a show stopper. Not bad for a former male model.
As for Channing Tatum in "Dear John", that young man, also a former male model was truly outstanding in that semi-combat movie/love story. Very very believable. So I guess being a male model isn't what it used to be.
Well done, young men.

The last, "come join me in the Marines" was a show stopper.I didn't understand what that meant, pertaining to boxing or the Navy/Marines.

Every person that served can be called a veteran, but not every veteran can be called a Marine.
