"84 Charlie MoPic" comes from the Army Military Occupational Specialty code "84C", which was a Motion Picture Cameraman (MoPic) during the VietNam era.
Numerous Vietnam Veterans , including those from LRRP, Ranger and Airborne units have named the film to be the best depiction of a combat tour in a small unit in Vietnam.
The film is well known to be a harsh and realistic depiction of the Vietnam War.
"MoPic: I was working in a lab, back in the rear - post-production. Sometimes we would get these cans of film in, you know? No cameraman, just the reels of film. And, we hear he got shot, he's dead or something. But the spookiest is thing is waiting for that film to develop, man, because you didn't know what you were gonna see. Sometimes you saw nothing. But other times..."
"Pretty Boy: You always try for running water. Still water is full of all kinds of nasty things. Hammer: Well, one time, we filled our canteens and later we found two dink bodies upstream. They were all rotted to hell, pieces of them floating around. By then we'd already drank half the water. LT: What'd you do? Pretty Boy: Said, "fuck it" and drove on. Don't mean nothing. Hammer: We called it "soup". LT: That's a war story, huh?"
