Brand new factory sealed dvd with big oversized security strips on the right and top. Gatefold cardcover snapcase usually has the chapter stops and or stills from the movie printed on the inside cover. Letterboxed version which means newer TV owners simply have to use your zoom mode to enhance and fill the widescreen frame. This is the only major film made during the Vietnam War that supported U.S. involvement. Military officials and equipment were made available for the production. David Janssen ('Fugitive' TV series) is the liberal anti-war reporter set straight by Colonel Mike Kirby (John Wayne) in the combat zone. The film was released just after Robert Kennedy was shot and just before Nixon and Agnew were picked to run on the Republican ticket. The Duke stars as the Special Forces Colonel who leads his troops against the Viet Cong. Spawned the hit single "Ballad of the Green Beret" by Barry Sadler.
