Revised 10/10/95
BEGIN MAIN 'TITLE SEQUENCE:
An impressionistic montage:A SILHOUETTED MAN in front of mirror dons his Marine dress blues. Spit
polish shoes laced. Medals clipped to jacket. All in CLOSE-UP. We
never see him fully.The Man puts HIS HAT squarely on his head. EYES glint.
On the man's dresser: MARINE MEMORABILIA. Three Purple Hearts, photos
of a WOMAN (his wife), PHOTOS OF MARINES in combat locales. TIGHTER
into the photos, we HEAR PANICKED VOICES, EXPLOSIONS, NOISES OF BRUTAL
COMBAT.
