Gary Sinise, “The movie opened 30 years ago this summer in July and in August of 1994, I was invited to the National Convention of the Disabled American Veterans,” Sinise recalled. “They wanted to give me an award for playing Lt. Dan and I walked on stage and there were 2,000 wounded veterans out there, screaming and yelling like I'm Elvis or something. I looked out and saw these people in wheelchairs and everything and I just broke down. I got very emotional.”

Once You're In A Similar Situation,
It's Easier To Understand The Other Persons Predicaments,
As We Should All Be Trying To Do When It Comes The Ukraine,
And Our Southern Borders Too. These Are Not Just Places
And World Events, They're "PEOPLE", No Different Than Are We..
Now THAT'S Something WORTH Thinking About.
