But melodrama aside, there still is a semblance of the real action in the scenes depicted.Alexander Tiedemannhttp://diamondsixleadership.com/leadership-development/military-leadership-and-management-training-seminars/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162714825014472282.post-37606739585923557022011-06-10T21:49:47.956-04:002011-06-10T21:49:47.956-04:00What y'all said!

IMO she's one of the best actresses out there.<br /><br />Plumley's line got a laugh out of me and is memorable, but I believe "Custer was a moron" would have been more accurate.

One segment that really hit home was the night deployment, leaving the family at home. That brought back a few memories!
