If you want to know what Vietnam looked like, then Full Metal Jacket or Platoon. But if you want to get into the head of some of the people there and feel what it was like, then go see Apocolypse Now.

I thought We Were Soldiers was ok but I would have liked to have seen more of the training involved with putting the 1st Air Cav into action. As the unit name implies, they were the 1st unit to be integrated with full helicopter support and they invented a lot of the tactics that were used later in the war.
