  1. Loved the story about "defacing the M1"...That's role-immersion, and for the props people not to get it is astounding -- especially when you consider all the other efforts the directors, producers and Capt. Dye made to MAKE them BE 101st ABN troopers, and the guys of Co. E.

    I'm sorry, but I would've just said, "take it out of my paycheck," or "take it up w/Capt. Dye."
