Thoughts on the military and military activities of a diverse nature. Free-ranging and eclectic. Saturday, July 31, 2004. This is coolbert: The "Last Stand". This theme seems to be a favorite of Hollywood when making war movies. A small group of soldiers, cut off from all hope and help, and surrounded by an endless "sea" of enemy troops, fights valiantly and bravely, sometimes winning and surviving, sometimes not winning, but always showing a mettle. The Alamo and Wake Island. What seems to be a common t...

Zulu Dawn: The FanEdit: March 2010
http://zuludawnfanedit.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

It is a movie with a difference because the Zulus are portrayed as brave and disciplined, more than a match for their British enemy. The famous musical score by John Barry confirms this respect for the Zulu by having the heroic theme play equally over opposing forces. So why a FanEdit of Zulu Dawn?
