What I wait for
During that time while I was in class. All the down time and everything. I decided to watch some of the war movies that have been made. Now, since I am in the military, unlike the actors and directors, I always find faults with the movies. It doesn't make them less good, but it still bugs me.
One is the wearing of the uniform. Some of the newer movies get really close but most of the old have it wrong.
Another is military speak. While even we joke about it, it is still true. The use of acronyms. SOP, USO, SATO, HMMWV, CFLCC, USAREUR, to name a few. The movies have some but some they just make up. Funny thing is that some times the words made in the movie are being used now.
Lastly, maps. I've seen many maps, all alike. It's your basic grid coord. set with the map definition and grid set. Most movies use more basic civilian maps. The military also uses strip maps, or a ruff drawing of the area and the route to be taken. I rarely see those.
Also, I know of places on some maps that will never be labled. But it's all, like, Classified information* (*said with respect to one Asahina Mikuru)
On a different note, I am in writers block, for everything. And it sucks.
