There's 1 in the photo, a german carrying a US Thompson. I guess it could've been captured though.

Afrika Korps yes, but debatable for Luftwaffe. The British 8th Army used them in the desert, so Afrika Korps could have captured on. Also notice the German guard is wearing rifle bullet pouches...

I have gone through these responses and they are CLASSIC!!! but I wanna flip the coin. How about some of Hollywood's Cinematic events that YOU feel were spot on where the Military was Concerned? I have a few but I will mention one here. The 1957 classic "Heaven knows Mr. Allison with Robert Mitchum and Deborah Kerr. I feel that John Huston did a great job directing this movie and staying as close to the Marine Motto as possible: Semper Fidelis, Always Faithful. I can see a Corporal putting himself out in harms way to prevent hundreds or thousands of his Brothers from being hurt or killed by dismantling the Japanese coastal artillery by throwing the breech plugs into the surf while the Navy bombards the island. The rest of the movie is easy to believe as well.

What are your thoughts?

Whenever the sounds in the movie actually starts hurting your hears. As others have said, combat is freakin loud.

Long hair and improper wear of headgear. It also annoys the hell out of me when watching Last Man Standing and the youngest daughter wears her collar up and velcroed.

I was in JAG for 12 years. I could not watch the show. None of the attorneys (or JAG personnel, for that matter) I knew could handle weapons, never mind fly a plane. A Major handed me his .45 and said, "Steve, clean this for me." I told him, "Sir, I can't. It's not mine". He then said, "Niether can I. I don't know how." I then proceeded to show him how, and he never asked me again. I'm sure he had aske others, though.

My a beef is with Magnum PI. He gets on a Navy base in uniform. And he is not in 3510. And no officers stop him and tells him to get a hair cut.

Tears of the sun: FA18's flying slick yet dropping more ordnance than a B-52 could carry. Pearl Harbor: The biggest joke ever perpetrated, two yahoos who are able to defeat the entire Japanese attack in outdated fighters, then go on to fly bombers with the Tokyo raiders. One even flew Spitfires with the RAF, Huge NEVER HAPPENED. There are many other Hollywood movies that reek of BULL FLOP. Uniform violations Don't get me started.

To further on the Tears of the Sun: they are flying slick in one cut, then flying in an Air to Air config in the next, then cut to them shooting 2 missiles each and ending up with the destructive force of a massive "snake and nape" drop.
