There is a Vietnam vet that gave it a good review on Internet Movie Database site; however, I can see why it wouldn't go over well with some
vets. "Apocalypse Now" is unerringly accurate about some essential truths
of the Vietnam War, even if not accurate about various details; that's why
it hits a nerve with some vets. We have Truman and his doctrine for setting the stage for that mess; Eisenhower for funding the French and committing advisors; JFK for starting the initial troop and arms buildup;
Johnson for escalating that buildup; Nixon for maintaining that buildup and
letting things drag on and on and on. It was an exercise in absurdity,
something I'd like to forget, but "Apocalypse Now" won't let me. - AH
