Hi Stripey,

The film starts with a seventeen year old sailor. He is tring to get in the mess where they are showing a bit of soft porn that Paul Raymond has sent to British troops fighting the Argentinians.

Sailor on door: No son you can't come in. You are only seventeen, The skippers told me

Boy: But bosun I am fighting tomorrow I may never get to see a blue film.

Next morning captain Alonso Rodrigez, a very brave pilot, dropped a bomb which hit the deck of the ship. A piece of shrapnel hit the boy in the head. As he lay dying.
Boy: I only wanted to see a blue film, then the blood bubbled through his lips and he died..
Anyone seen it because that is what I call anti-war sentiment.
