This scene is based off the battle at Firebase Burt on New Year's Day 1968. You can find footage here on UA-cam of the day after, however the footage is very grainy. My uncle was part of the reinforcements that came the next morning at Burt. He was in the 25th Infantry Division 4th/9th Alpha Co. 1st platoon. He remembers that day very well to this day.
Interestingly in the movie, it's mechanized forces that come to reinforce.
@@Valorius Both did, at least according to my uncle. His unit was supposed to arrive at Burt around 3AM to help with the battle but at the last minute they were called off and didn't arrive til around 6-7 AM instead.

@@TheRodFarva passing of lines at dark in the jungle is extremely hazardous. That is almost certainly why they were called off until the dawn.
Arguably, the end combat scene in “Platoon” is as close to the madness and insanity of war as humanly possible. My father served. God Bless
i only did excersises with the gass grenades and vieuwing night bombing actions as excersises and went to nightmares...this was for real...can you imagine...
My oldest brother served and luckily came home, but he was badly wounded. He was the only survivor of his platoon. He was never the same again. RIP brother Jack❤
@pennykloter1614 🫡
guess you've never seen apocalypse now
He has if he watches this channel, because that's the other movie clip I uploaded.
Trivia: Francesco Quinn who played Rhah was the legendary actor Anthony Quinns son, he died rather young (48) from a heart attack whilst out playing with his children, he is one of the best characters in platoon IMO 👍
He has a much bigger part in the book.
@@Valorius not read the book .
@@snelgrave101 It's worth the read.
i loved rhah in the film was a solid guy .Francesco Quinn you was a legand like your father r.i.p.
@@Valorius I'm gauna source it, military books are my favourite genre 👍 thanks for the tip.
When I was a kid I built a model of the F-5, it is such a beautiful little bird. I was surprised to see it used in Platoon instead of a Phantom, but thought it was really cool. The F-5 fought in limited numbers in the Vietnam War, but I believe by 1968 all of them had been transferred to the RVNAF, so there wouldn't be Americans flying them at this point in the conflict. That said, the Captain calling in the F-5s for close air support is one of the most iconic moments in war cinema, capturing perfectly the stark contrast between the dirty and desperate grunts on the ground fighting for their lives and the professional, cool pilot above doing his best for his comrades below before returning to base or his carrier far from the fight. I could watch this scene over and over, and I have. Thanks so much for this hi def upload!
I'm really glad you enjoyed it man! I am in the next infantryman myself and this is one of the scenes that motivated me to join decades ago.
Follow me!
@@Valorius Right on. Subscribed. 👍🏻
@migjager7352 thanks man, and love the screen name 😆
@@Valorius Thank you- and keep up the great work!
Although the film was made in 1986, it has very realistic conflict scenes. Gunshots, explosions, light, etc. It is better than most films shot with today's technology.
I agree
Highly recommended movie. Oliver stone as a director is just amazing.
Pilot: “Roger your last, Bravo Six. Can't run it any closer. We're hot to trot packing snake and nape, but we're bingo on fuel.”
That's what he's saying, I always wondered.
anyone know what snake is?
@@slayerhuh404snakeyes I would presume
@@slayerhuh404, snakeye(500lb) bomb
@slayerhuh404 yeah it makes a hissing sound when falling, hence the name.
One of my favorite movies of all time.
@@alexanderwalle3568 Remove safety and squeeze the clacker three times.
You would have a field day in the comment section on my Apocalypse Now and my short movie contact front both are on the end screen of this video
Def my favorite war movie.
Oliver Stone never did better
Taylor went from a cherry to a bonafide hardass warrior in the matter of months. During this battle, he was a machine
Should have been nominated for a bronze star in the previous day's battle for advancing forward and saving Lerner and at least a purple heart for his wounds in battle in this one.
@@Foldy435 I'd say definitely to the Purple Heart as his buddy Francis yells " Hey Taylor, we two timers, we outta here!". Meaning he had been wounded twice, which says that technically he would've been eligible when he was grazed and treated during their first ambush, though that sort of thing wasn't commonly accepted as a true casualty in the eyes of everyday soldiers
As for the final fight? Probably would be a Bronze star recipient, even bordering a Silver Star due to the fact he held his position and openly engaged against a vastly superior enemy. The problem would be, is that the story typically requires confirmation by others and by the end? Most anyone who could've confirmed it was dead. Maybe Francis though
@michaellrakes5521 either bronze star with v device or silver star for that final battle. Although typically there need to be Witnesses and there were none
@@Valorius precisely correct !
I've always wondered how much time taylor spent in viet nam and it seems it wasn't that much, including the time off his first battle wound, has someone done the math?
"Goddammit, Lieutenant, where ya gonna pull back to?! They're all over the perimeter! Now you be advised: you will hold in place and you will FIGHT! That means you, Lieutenant! Bravo Six out!"
"It's been a wonderful effing War"
Love that exchange
Gritty comment.
Great bit of offensive spirit by Chris- counter-attacking after his foxhole was RPG'ed. His actions motivate his mate to get stuck in- leadership by example. I believe that this clip has been known to be used at Sandhurst as an example of offensive spirit- essential in such a scenario. Great film, superb cast.
When in doubt: Attack.
When facing overwhelming odds: Attack
When facing certain defeat: Attack
Those who survive these situations, often get mad. They are furious and that propels them to fight and survive.
I think Chris learned enough Vietmanese to know the fox hole was being targeted by a RPG team. He told the other guy to quiet down so he could hear what was being said...other than that he had no way of knowing. He acted quickly and managed to get a temporary advantage over the enemy due to his fast action and judgement in the chaos of battle.
@@Bradgilliswhammyman Chris became one heck of a soldier.
I always loved the shit-eating grins they exchange when they retake the hole.
0:30 For someone who "didn't ask for" the job, Ramuchi did a great job as squad leader.
I think he had some help from Mister Brownstone.
@@patrick-ip4yf Actually, yeah, I got that impression too. But still, in a beneficial way.
Yep exactly, you can see him taking it from the dead nva near the end. Rah is a good soldier and a good man
He was my favorite character
In the book he was a leader in the Hells Angel's chapter where he was from.
Still the most most realistic movie depiction of a Vietnam jungle battle between the US and NVA, based on the real battle for Soui Cut in 1968
Fun fact, of the entire cast and crew of 'Platoon,' only three served during the war. First was Oliver Stone. Much of the film's plot is based around his service with the 25th infantry Division. The other is Captain Dale Dye, a war correspondent in the Marine Corps. He was wounded three times in combat and earned many medals for gallantry including the Bronze Star. The other is James Finnerty, the film's key grip. He has a cameo as the yelling sergeant @5:57, before he's shot.
I get tons of comments about that sergeant major yelling before he gets shot, in the book he is the sergeant major for the battalion, and he's trying to rally the troops to get his combat infantryman badge. They don't really explain the context in the movie and it really seems to trigger people LOL
The real life Sgt. Barnes actually survived the war and passed away in 2014. Elias was supposedly killed by a hand grenade that his team was rigging as a booby trap. It killed Elias and another guy and wounded a 3rd.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I always loved the attention to detail where Bunny's shotgun action always seemed on the verge of locking up completely from the rust of jungle humidity....
... always brought me massive anxiety even to this day lol.
Reminds me of those fever dreams I would get when I was in where my rifle wasn't shooting straight or locking up and malfunctioning at the worst moment.... 😬😰😰😰

If you look closely right before bunny gets killed he has his shotgun but then as he gets shot he has an m16. It always amazed me they let that slip through the cracks. Semper Fi Marine!

@alexanderwalle3568 I'm thankful I didn't "give all." Some of my buddies did, including my own cousin, and it was for F nothing. 🤬
I saw Platoon in the theatre when it came out. I already knew a bit about the film because I had seen a discussion on a talk show, that showed the Barnes, little girl village hostage scene. I love the film and have the dvd. I've watched it so many times I lost count. I am 65 year old retired Canadian. I worked for forty years at a commercial poultry farm. About as far from the military or war as you can get. I was a serious hunter for 40 years both with gun and bow. So I know a bit about guns and the damage that they can do. I don't know why, but I have always had a fascination with war movies. I was 10 years old in 1968 and I can still remember the Kennedy assassination on our black and white tv. I can still remember my father watching Vietnam war footage while eating supper. I was drawn to magazines and books on the war with vivid color photos'. In the platoon scene where Alias goes down in the tunnel. I already knew all about them, because I had read the book 'The Tunnels Of Cu Chi' and found it fascinating. Its true accounts of what it was like to be a tunnel rat in vivid detail. I have of course also been interested in the earlier wars as well. The ones that the allies sacrificed their lives for. The heroes that we all owe our freedoms to. The favorites in my dvd collection are of course this one. Then.. 'Born On The Fourth Of July', 'Hamburger Hill', 'Saving Private Ryan' and Apocalypse Now'.' The Platoon Leader" is another not so known film that I love. With Michael Dudikoff had it taped off TV to a VHS some where. It is a very realistic portrayal of Vietnam jungle warfare written by and produced by war veterans. The movie is actually here on UA-cam. I also have the documentary tribute, 'Letters From Vietnam'. For many years, When I get to feeling depressed or sorry for myself in the way my life is going. I would sit down and watch this dvd. It would bring me back to the realization... that I have nothing to complain about. My sincere respect and admiration for the sacrifice made by all military servicemen both past and present.😊❤🙏
I read that same tunnel rats book too.
@@Valorius 'That's cool! It was an interesting contrast to the traditional open firefights. In the tunnel you were protected from the rear. And you had a bit more personal control over your fate...somewhat. That is.. along with the spiders, snakes, rats, booby traps and claustrophobia. I think that last one would have done me in. I wouldn't have made a very good coal miner.. or tunnel rat! I need blue sky overhead. 😀
@nbmooselovers I was in the Infantry but you will never catch me as a tunnel rat LOL
@@Valorius I hear ya! 'Thank You' for the reply's. Its been great chatting with ya! Stay healthy! 👍

Epic battle scene from an epic movie. Thanks for posting this in 4k brother!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@alexanderwalle3568 Live fire ammunition is the difference between getting an AAM and a Silver Star.
@nomorerainbows very true
I absolutely hated junior. One of the most selfish disrespectful soliders in the squad. Hitting his head and knocking him out then the bayonet scene. Didnt feel a bit of pity for him.
@viceadmiralq90 that is definitely a sign of a well-written and a well acted part.
Holy shit, so this is why I wasn't allowed to watch this when I was younger. A most brilliant and brutal battle.
Now you know 🤣

This is the most intense battle scene ever
This movie definitely pushed me towards the Army, they should have waited on the claymores and got a bigger group of enemy fighters
Nah, when the stuff hits the fan you gotta rock and roll. There’s no time to calculate etc.
@@ingleringlet-snipps3rd449 that is what your rifle is for and that M79, That was a nice kill box but a fresh rested Soldier vs a fatigued exhausted Soldier will defend a position a lot differently
Saw this when it was released. Two scenes stand out, the scene where Taylor and then Francis charged out of the foxhole shooting, the audience in the theater began to cheer. The other scene is when the little girl began to cry after Barnes shot her mother, some women in the theater began to cry.
@alexanderwalle3568 the best part is after you spend all day digging a fox hole or fighting position, sit down and 10 minutes later they tell you to fill it back in because you're moving out
My knees are thankful that they did not LOL
This film hits me hard because I served in OIF 1&3 in the Army as a grunt and the insurgency really tried us at times. For some reason, the battle we had in Karbala Iraq in 03 comes to mind as ultimately the 101st AA ended up reinforcing us guys in the 3ID. Rock of the Marne. Again, this film makes me tear up some because it's gritty and pretty realistic.
Follow me brother.
@@Valorius Roger that. In our 05 deployment which was the whole year in mostly the Diyala Province, we came under ambush once and some of us got hit including a bullet that hit my ankle but thankfully missed the bone. I still look at the healed wound which was from a 7.62x39 round.
For my fellow Infantry retirees and Veterans, this is too close to reality.
Follow me
No good inside the pod
?
Well said brother
Awesome scene!!!!
That guy at 5:56 with can of beer is so funny 😂
In memory of all the forest Critters that never knew that this magnificent moment in history was going to take place :>
Lol
The Major being blown by the Zapper was Oliver Stone.
I've always thought that looked like him but I was never sure
If I remember from the book way back in 1986, that was the S-3 that the Battalion Commander had hung out as the on-site commander of the bait.
Masterpiece.
So incredibly sad - what a great movie to show the futility of war
A descent into savagery. I saw this in the theaters when it first came out. I was shaking nervously through most of the movie.
I still listen to theaters when it came out as well, and I was in basic training within a few months after seeing it
It's funny he took the "It's beautiful man" from Tom Cruz in Taps and no one knows because Platoon is far more known.
Some of us have seen both. :D
I was just thinking of that myself
One of the best movies ever,,, Remember Full metal Jacket,Boys from Co.C , Apocalypse Now all great movies
I also have the attack helicopter scene from Apocalypse Now uploaded in 1080p.
Pure cinematic genius.
Barnes got shot and bayoneted 153 times during this incident... the man kept killing!
CaseOh back in the 60s: "Hey you people, where the F you going?" like bro are you seriously gonna rush the enemy like that?
That was the Battalion sergeant major and he thought they were retreating US troops. This is covered in the book
@@Valorius my bad oops, wait here's a book?
@iiwidowla99lambo65 yep!
@ thank you for informing me
@@iiwidowla99lambo65 you got it brother, stop by after you read the book and let us know how you liked it. :)
Good quality!
I never thought much of the white light rocking back and forth until I served in Afghanistan myself. Those are loom rounds to lighten up the perimeter at night. At fob bostic 2008 those were being let off every night. It’s basically a flare on a mini parachute that luminates the area it’s hovering over
Yes sir, magnesium aluminum flares: very effective.
@Valorius I wish I could find some just like that to take me back to the wonderful Fn war haha I know normal flares exist but not that bright white illuminating light
@OG-Ghost33 you can get them online but they're pretty pricey. Just do a search for magnesium illumination flare.
@OG-Ghost33 hey thanks for posted man, I have my old memories like that too from my time in the Infantry.

Is that really too much to ask? 😏
Man got bombed by a Mig28. I didn't realize anyone had been that close before!
Lol! Believe it or not the USAF did fly F-5s early in the Vietnam War
Taylor was inverted
@@henryhoward9454 cough *bullsht* cough
He was just doing international relations. 😁
Best line in the movie is when Taylor tells Barnes "You're gonna' need a bigger boat." Classic cinema!!!+
🤣
There is no more accurate war film. Is what it is.
It's definitely one of the all-time greats
In the scene where the soldier falls asleep while on watch during an ambush, it really was Oliver Stone, he stated that himself. I don't understand why he wouldn't own up to it in the movie.
Maybe trying to portray the pressures and adversity black soldiers faced i dunno
@sneakerbay1836 the same as everyone else did
Such a great movie
Definitely one of my all-time favorites. This came out probably a year or so before I join the Army
@@alexanderwalle3568 Maybe that's how his hair turned white.
@@Valorius I imagine his hair turned white at Hue, or maybe Con Thien.
Thank you for upgrading the quality!!! Every now and then i have the strong urge to watch this scene, and dont feel like putting the dvd in and fast forwarding lol
Lol! Well I'm glad that you enjoyed it, it's one of my favorite scenes too.
*#Autobiographic** movie of Oliver Stone !!!*
“…it’s Chucky, I can feel him, he’s out there….”

Very intense, shows the 4:19 closeness of the combat..
Remember GREAT movies?!
It's been a while since anyone has made one.
@@Valorius all is quite on the western front on Netflix was pretty good
@@Jitsover50 I liked the original and 1970s remakes, but the new one on netflix really had almost nothing at all to do with the plot of the original movie. Since I had saw both of them, the netflix movie pretty much filled me with rage when I watched it, lol.
For someone who had never seen the originals, I could see how they'd find it entertaining, but it should've been named something else.
@@Valorius watch the making of it. Yes I hear you about the originals. Great films
Great movies are truthful and not trying to manipulate you into buying into some bullshit agenda.
Bunny: Come on you can do better than that!
Junior: No way I'm staying and fighting with you I'm outta here!
Bunny: Get back here you gutless s***!
Remember this is Human behavior It's what we do as a species
Almost all predatory species engage in war and battles.
Awesome!
Thanks !!
You got it brother. It's a truly great scene and it needed to be on UA-cam in 4k.
We literally as America , have Zips in the wire ..
@scoot9316 indeed.
DI DI MOW! As Terrifying and Traumatizing as it was in 1986! Now people laugh at it; people were leaving the theater because of its INTENSITY and now people laugh at this masterpiece
I don't see anyone laughing at it in this comment section
@Valorius fascinating thar you're so myopic! You really see the world a comment section???? What kind of people are we producing these days, some people were laughing at Elias being shot in our local bookstore!

Sent by Copilot:
“Snake and nape” is a military slang term coined during the Vietnam War by American infantry. It refers to a specific loadout for aircraft bombing missions. Let me break it down for you:
Snake: This slang term comes from “Snake Eye,” which refers to US retarded bombs with fold-out petal-style fins. These bombs were designed to be dropped from low altitudes. The “snake” part of the loadout represents these bombs.
Nape: “Nape” stands for napalm. Napalm canisters, specifically the 500-lb. M-47 napalm canisters, were also part of this loadout. Napalm was dropped on the first pass over a target, followed by the bombs on the second pass12.
The combination of snake (high-explosive bombs) and nape (napalm) allowed for effective low-level attacks, maximizing the impact of both types of ordnance. It was a devastating combination used during the Vietnam War.
Expert!
Thank You. Well explained
Turns out the Vietnamese REALLY didn't want the US pillocking around in their business.
The War. It reminds me of the French scene cut from Apocalypse now. Why? The British destroyed the French fleet in harbor after the surrender. The French then Vichy or neutral. Had the French had the fleet they could have held Indochina. So much of the British musical invasion caused the withdrawal from Vietnam. The loss of the French colonies for the loss of the 13 colonies. Meri! As a three time Platoon leader I enjoyed the dynamics and politics.
The French should have fought on the side of the allies with their fleet. They chose not to and it was too much risk to the Allies that the Germans would seize the fleet they had no choice but to sink it
5:55 Most random wtf scene in the movie. Why did they need to add this silly thing. Unarmed drunk beer gut soldier yelling at enemies running at him in a firefight??
It is the Battalion sergeant major trying to earn his combat infantryman badge cuz he thinks it's retreating US troops- he's a combat inexperienced rear Echelon Soldier. It's explained in the book
Best scene.
J'ai toujours trouvé cette scène assez hallucinante entre le soldat directement au corps à corps et le capitaine qui reste calme et "maitre de lui" et qui mène sa bataille.
"le calme des vieilles troupes" (expression française).
I don't know what you said, but thanks for posting
@@Valorius I've always found this scene interesting, with the soldier in close combat and the captain calm and in control, commanding his battle.
‘le calme de vieille troupe’ (French expression).
‘The calm of the old troops'
👍
It always bothered me that Bunny's Remington 870 at 4:48 becomes a Colt M16A1 at 4:49. And why is the overweight Sgt. casually strolling around during an "all hell has broken loose" battle with a beer in his hand at 5:56?
Tjey explain the overweight Sergeant in the book. He is the Battalion sergeant major who has never seen combat looking to get a combat infantry badge and a medal for bravery. He thinks the Viet Cong charging in are retreating Americans. That is why he is yelling at them.
このシーンだけでも ベトナム兵の国を守る覚悟と 戦争目的がいまいち伝わっていない アメリカ兵との違いが出ているな。
👍
🇺🇲🇺🇸
This is insane.
War be like that.
Chris or Charlie Sheen after the battle is sitting on the ground when the rescue team comes and he drops a grenade he is holding.I probably watched the movie 15 times before i noticed the grenade.
Prior to the scene where Barnes is about to bash Taylor, Taylor's headband was around his neck. Suddenly it is around his head.
Bunny is a beast.
And Rahmucci runs as far away from the battle as he can go, only to return after daybreak after all of the shooting is over to scavenge all the dope that he can find!
He was in the platoon CP acting as the platoon leaders rto. What do you want to do to do? That's his assigned position.
@Valorius he's a cowardly loudmouth
Dale Dye had a melt down after this scene was shot.
Why?
Because Dale is a Vietnam vet and this brought back too many bad memories.
@tomcat548 makes sense. Thanks for posting.
always remember bunny with his gauge
I really liked Bunny (Kevin Dillon). I hated it when he got killed. And that was Junior's fault. Also, John C. McGinley did a great job portraying the coward, Red. I was amazed whenever I realized that he later played one of the "Bobs" in the comedy, Office Space. He's a funny guy.
McGinley is also in Highlander 2! He um, well... it's not a good film. I don't hold it against him.
... Like he's a clown, he's here to amuse you?
Lol
I think he did a good job staying alive, as Chris was told, don't be no hero, all you gut to do is make it out alive, the rest is gravy. True friend
Thank God I missed that
Amen
based on a true War battle!
@8:38 The eyes of pure HATRED, MADNESS, EVIL AND INSANITY
"Its fvcking beutiful man!" Taylors complete insanity at that point is on of the most tragic scenes in this Masterpiece.
and just maybe hes right tho.. maybe this is exactly what we are and true expression of ourselves in its most beautiful form. Given endless wars since always,
Taylor is right. 🤔🤔🤔
Always intrigued by the fact that the director put himself in this scene as a commanding officer who gets killed.
I think that was his son, too. The young man on the left.
LA MEJOR PELICULA DE VIETNAM
I don't know what you said but thank you very much for posting
WE are all behind enemy lines now, there are no lines ....
Probably true
There is no way I would let a man in or out of my foxhole while a flare was burning over head. Its hard to find a man in a foxhole.. specially if he stays quiet and more importantly HE STAYS STILL. Any movement at all is seen and it can be seen from a considerable distance. You add that to a burning flair and you have the reason I would have grabbed rah and told him your going to have to wait till that flair goes out at least.
Definitely true however it's pretty hard to tell your squad leader what to do unless you want an Article 15 LOL
M-16.A1. I recall the teardrop shaped forward assist at Parris Island.The round on the later models. The dial sights could engage at 500.the 20 inch barrel Added to sight radius. They have the duplex sites as well. They also used to use luminescent or white tape down the front sight. It shot very well at the movie ranges. Not sure full auto AR night is a good idea. Grenades rolled down hill.
For fun a roll of fish line really makes tanglefoot at night.
If you lose. He's all gone.

The captain was in the command bunker and never shot his gun. He's the one who called in the airstrike.
I've been sooooo been wanting for someone to digitally correct the Elias scene when the squibs are supposed to go off in the iconic scene where he dies. Please...someone....add the bullets tearing through his body. My OCD can't take it anymore.

Yup
Col Sink didn’t look too happy.
