brings tears to my eyes watching this

This scene was almost out of place in the movie. They try to make light of it and joke around, but they all know he’s going to Southeast Asia and they’re worried that they might never see each other again. I have to wonder how many of these scenes played out in real life with friends that were getting ready to ship out. God bless our Vietnam Vets.

Great scene. Almost didn’t belong in this movie. 58k Jimmy Shines never came home 🇺🇸

Well put. It’s a sad scene really. They are trying to keep the mood light and funny, but they are all thinking the same thing. God bless all the Vietnam vets. Thanks and welcome home!

Timeless classic movie

[@rubenreyna2198]

Thats why I love this movie. It had several genuine warm hearted scenes like this. Sandwiched between the goofy vulgar but laughable scenes. It all melded nicely together. I have it placed next to American Graffiti & proudly so.

Movies like this one and "The Last American Virgin" often are overshadowed from the early 80s by "Fast Times at Ridgemont High", but I'll put them right up there with it as beacons of a time that I wish this country could return to but most likely never will. I had just turned 13 when this was released in May of 1980 and little did I know that these next few years would be the best of my life.

Just for clarity: That WASN'T an 8-track player... it's a Muntz M-35-69 4-Track, what basically preceded 8-track until Lear (Of Learjet) initially brought the 8-track to market shortly after.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing. It must have been amazing when these things started coming out. We completely take for granted the idea of music in cars, but you couldn’t play “your own music” in your car until 1962. Car radios were introduced in the 30s!
