b/c I want something that's not depressing to think about at work today

1. Are we talking about fanon Nate or RL Nate Fick? Because the differences between the two generate some really mixed feelings - as a character, he's easy to sympathize with b/c see his struggle on screen. But reading his book? I have a less positive view of him.
2. Brad. The end.
3. Captain Patterson
4. Related to #1. I get that his major goal was to get all of his men home alive. But for someone to join an all-volunteer military officer corps and not reconcile with the fact that in war men die? It makes it hard for me to think he would've been THAT good an officer in the long term. Also: I find some of his book sort of disingenuous.
5. I wish the real Nate Fick had done the round-table with the other Marines on the GK DVDs.

Character, not RL. Also, thanks :) I like hearing other people's opinions on characters :)
