and there's a scene where anthony asks chris tucker about how he got a 50% medical, he ain't disabled

and chris is like man, some shit got into me over there, all i know is my blood cells are fucked up, cold sweats, etc.

did chris tucker get poisoned by agent orange? or is it HIV?

My very southern Ga grand pa would call it a case of the Black Ass.

Great movie and greater soundtrack.

My question is how did chris tucker make it onto a SF team ? His character was a mess. I liked Hakeem Woodbines M3..

Never heard of it but a little bit of google and youtube makes it look like a good movie.

It seemed to imply early HIV because he was a heroin junkie.

He said the docs didn't know what it was.

I love the scene where it transitions from him running through his neighborhood, into running through the jungles of Nam.

I always assumed he got the HIV.

That's an underrated movie.

Not movie related but I knew a Vietnam Vet who died at age 49 from some rare combination of cancers. He didn't blame it on anything in particular but I think he thought is was from something he was exposed to during his service.

Symptoms sound like malaria.

Anyone else remember the military urban legends of some exotic VD you could catch in Korea that would get you quarantined on an island up there for something like 3-6 months?
