Overall a brilliant compelling, and often emotional documentary. It was riveting watching the actual battles while the soldiers told their tales. A big miss was in the first episode talking about the Gulf of Tonkin incident which was pure propaganda from the Lyndon Johnson administration and never actually happened, but the show purported that it did.

For everyone hating this show, try to take it for what it really is - fan fiction. Does it, or will it correlate perfectly to to the nurse Ratched we know from One Who Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest? Probably not. The show is beautifully shot, the acting is great, the humor is dark yet campy and bizarre enough to be entertaining. I admit it's hard to tell where they're going to take some of the story lines, but that's why we'll have a season 2! And I can't wait ...
