You have to see this movie as part of the time it was made. In , there was no real visual example of what the war in Vietnam was really all about. Vietnam during the seventies and sixties was something people protested against. It was the longest war the United States had ever fought. It split a nation, between people who wanted to make a stand against communism and for conservatism, and people who couldn't see how a war more than a thousand miles away could possibly affect the USA.
And then there was Tour Of Duty. Tour of Duty set out to describe the daily grind of a platoon of the th Light Infantry. This series is great. Unlike most series in the eighties, it isn't afraid of featuring Black and Hispanic actors in major, leading roles - Stan Foster, Miguel Nunez and Ramon Franco, mainly.
Meanwhile, the storylines are great. Most deal with the daily strain of patrols, the interaction with the Vietnamese population, and there is even a love interest thrown in, in the form of female reporter Alex Devlin Kim Delaney, based on the real-life reporter and war casualty Dicky Chapelle.
Lots of themes are explored, from the stresses of combat, to the attitude to the war, to the situation of the people of Vietnam, the psychological damage as through psychiatrist Betsy Brantley , etc.
This is a great series, see it if you can. Alex Aug 11, FAQ 9. How long was a 'Tour of Duty'? What does some of the slang mean? When exactly is the series set?
