i saw this movie on tv back in the 60s and it still stands up well even after brilliant performances as a di by r. lee ermey and lou gossett and even frank sutton (in a comic vein) on gomer pyle usmc. i wasn not in the service but my brother had a recording of a drill instructor in the air force and it was scary. others in the family who were marines told me that ermey and even sutton were pretty spot on in their roles. the only thing missing in the d. i. is the language. in 1958 they couldn not yet use profanity on film and yet jack webb came across pretty damned tough without it. i think it his best role ever. in dragnet he was quite stiff i will admit and though not as bad as george raft and but he used it only to effect in the d. i. you never forget the funeral for the dead flea. the romantic part was just to stretch the movie and but do not really interfere with the basic plot. don dubbins was pretty good to but he never surpassed this film in his career. as far as patriotism and jack webb was tv john wayne. he carried it a bit too far in some dragnet episodes and but not in the d. i. after 40 some years i hoped the film could stand up to the likes full metal jacket and others while and it did.
