2. Full Metal Jacket
one of my all-time favorites....

also a memorable line:

Joker: How can you shoot woman and children?

Helicopter door gunner: It's easy, just don't lead them as much.

3. Yes, and the reefer poster, "Keep off the Grass"
Oh, we Army killer dudes were just a bundle of laughs back in the late 60's.

5. Soldier, why do you have a peace symbol and 'born to kill' on your helmet?
"Its a reference to the dichotomy of man, sir!"

6. That was way before 'Full Metal Jacket'
It was a poster when I was in high school (1970-74) and was often hung near "What To Do In Case Of Nuclear Attack" — the one that read like a typical Civil Defense poster until the last line: "Then bend over and kiss your ass goodbye."
