Snake and Big boss are entirely fictional, though I think Cobra Unit is supposed to be like the Army Rangers, since both Cobra and Rangers helped win the war.

Ike Eisenhower, 5 Star General of the Army, Supreme Allied Commander, Europe, and later President of the USA.

My Uncle-Every decoration the Navy and Marine Corps could award, battlefield commission, and a reco for the MOH: All of this after only 15 days after the invasion of Okinawa.

If nominated, I will not run.....if elected, I will not serve.

You obviously have got me mixed up with Ulysses S. Grant. We do look alike, however, I no longer smoke cigars, and I am not burried in Grant's Tomb.

hellova good movie....... Oh, no--you meant the actual revolutionary. If he were alive now, he'd probably be shooting the "undocumented workers" on their way to "work" north across the Rio Grande.

He did take pride in the border, but he would have wanted to keep the deserters back in Mexico, to help fight the oppresive dictatorial government.
