Our radio and TV in Viet Nam, 1968-69 came from Armed Forces radio and TV through AFVN, Da Nang. The studio was half way up of Monkey Mountain as shown in this picture. One of our favorite TV series was "Combat" a WWII setting starring Vic Morrow as Sgt Saunders.

Mine was a mixture of old and new War Movies while playing the game Command 'n Conquer!
I know, it's weird but who cares? LOL

First time, it was Buffy the Vampire Slayer which I picked up from the Bazaar. 2nd time it was House M.D. (which I love and temporarily made me forget where I was.) along with FRIENDS.

While on ship in the 90s, I must have seen "The Rock" and "Terminator 1&2" 50 times. "A Few Good Men" was another regular movie on AFRTS. Shows like Home Improvement and In Living Color were popular. I watched Star Trek: The Next Generation religiously. We didn't have laptops/streaming devices then. The only video games we had were the Playstation that MWR would check in and out.
Later on, we watched lots of CSI, JAG, just about any crime show. Forrest Gump was a good movie that we would watch.

Didn't get to see any, but I did get to spend my 43rd birthday in Riyadh. Kind of impressive!

I watched anything with action in it. My wife never lets me watch that stuff at home so the deployment was perfect to catch up on a lot of movies. the 300, troy, gladiator, all of the Blade movies, all of the underworld movies,East bound and down, calcification.
