Loaded with satire and humor, but it definitely isn't pro-war by any stretch. Catch-22 is another example in the same genre.Response by Sgt Aaron Kennedy, MS made May 25 at 2015 10:10 AM2015-05-25T10:10:06-04:002015-05-25T10:10:06-04:00SGT Anthony Bussing694343<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I used to live in Robinson Illinois...home town of James Jones who wrote "thin red line" as well as "from here to eternity" and "some came running" among others...just a little FYIResponse by SGT Anthony Bussing made May 25 at 2015 10:30 AM2015-05-25T10:30:35-04:002015-05-25T10:30:35-04:00SrA Daniel Hunter694353<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Although the cast of A "Thin Red Line" are the usual suspects.

All of the violence, cruelty, madness and waste portrayed in any accurate war movie has to trigger the desire to avoid it at all costs........but go for broke and win it when you have committed to it. This is a philosophy of many of our most successful combat commanders who are also deeply wounded by the cost of war.Response by Cpl Dennis F. made May 25 at 2015 12:14 PM2015-05-25T12:14:53-04:002015-05-25T12:14:53-04:00LCDR Private RallyPoint Member694885<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Every good war movie is an anti-war movie.
