Okay...it has been suggested many times that I do a Vietnam era movie using my "Action Figures"...I have avoided doing so for many reasons but am now ready to tackle the project.
But I need my fellow members help. I need a cast. So I took a pic of all the "Action figures" I have ( save one or two) and if you are a vet from that era I would like you to pick out the one that looks most like you. I only have one black guys, so someone may have to be white for awhile... I would also like a basic idea of what you did there (IE radio operator, infrantry, heavy machine, etc, etc..but keep it basic) I am going to start on the script today and so forth. LEt me know if you are interested by posting here and picking out which figure you want to be. Keep in mind that uniforms and equipement is interchangable...  BTW...I already have the Ed Sr saved..

If Hiram (another sailor IIRC) has the guts then I do too. How about today as the setting with young vets involved too but some of us oldies-but-goodies hanging around or involved somehow?
<EDIT TO ADD>
I spent a lot of time like you Zack3g. I was an STG (sonar tech but not on a sub) - a geek in the dark anyway. |

Well for what it is worth, I was a Marine from 87-91. 0311 ground pounder. My last unit I was with was 1st.BTLN.4th Mar.Div "A" Co. Raiders. I have brown hair so either the guy in the middle "Saluting" or the guy on the far right sitting. It would be an honor to be in one of your movies. And yes I was actually called Coondog while I was in.
