Interestingly, this movie came out in 1957. R L Erney, probably the most famous film D.I., served from 61-72. Odds are he went into service having watched this movie, with Jack Webb setting the expectation of how a D.I. would treat him, the same way a lot of us went into the service with expectations that the D.I.'s and T.I.'s would treat us the same way.

We also had those iron racks, upper and lower.. The one difference between the reality of 1956 and this movie is that our DIs would grab ahold of you in some manner that would definitely cause to you to square away.

Vincent was even funnier in ''Baby Blue Marine.'' In WWII the Corps sent washed out ex-recruits home in a goofy blue pinstripe seersucker cotton suit with a matching newsboy cap It was a form of humiliation. At a slop chute in a city, Vincent runs into a white haired 24 year old Marine T/Sgt with a Raiders patch on his shoulder.and a 1000 yard stare, [Richard Gere]. Vincent wakes up the next morning in an alley. His money's gone, and so is his Baby Blue Suit. Somehow the Marine Raiders' dress greens are on Vincent [and fit like on the drill deck]. He goes back to his hometown and inspired by the costume, does heroic deeds. Meanwhile Gere escapes his War Bond Tour and goes AWOL on a great drunken bender until MPs catch him.
