I just now caught this


One of the fly boys refers to “the Korean War,” and another fly girl tries to correct him with “the Cold War,” and another flyguy jumps in, “Different wars, same century.”

Wow. Color me impressed. I never saw thought I see a Jerry Bruckheimer film with that much attention to detail. Bravo.

The Korean War was part of the Cold War, anyways.

My father was a combat veteran for the US Army in the Korean War. He was the spotter on an artillery team. He never mentioned anything in his experiences to me about the US Airforce in his experiences in that war but he did tell me that his team radioed in the coordinates to the US battleship to shoot their cannons at the target. He gave me his compass that he used in the Korean War but I lost it a long time ago.
