    Missed the best part. The Canadians marching into the base with bagpipes!

      Any nation with ties to the UK use bagpipes. It’s great. It British pipers, the originals, will always be the best 👍

    First time I saw this movie I was still in high school, just a bit over 50 years ago. Taught me a valuable lesson - Never be the type of American many of those men started out as!

    Idk if true, but I read a long while back that it was the opposite. The Canadians were the wild ones. They were picked from the back country wilderness. Lumberjacks, outdoorsmen, hunters, etc. Guys used to living rough and not afraid to get dirty.

      The Americans were the "second best" pick of active duty members, Canadians were well trained survivalists, the only people trained as survivalists in any army were those already good at surviving.

    A entertaining movie, but definitely not accurate. Both the Canadian and American members of the First Special Service were highly trained professionals. It wasn't a case of the Canadians being the uptight do-gooders and the Americans being a bunch of uncouth convicts like the Dirty Dozen.

  • @williamphillips6049

    The only thing that makes this Dirty Dozen copy off work is the talent, acting and directing.

      Except The Devil's Brigade is historical. The unit existed. And the battles shown happenec.
      The Dirty Dozen was total fiction.
