Ep 37: Not A Robot's War on Film - Tora! Tora! Tora! , 1970
Not A Robot's War on Film
01/15/22 • 88 min
"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." - Hanlon's Razor
Tora! Tora! Tora! is a 1970 movie about the Japanese air raid on Pearl Harbor, and the series of American blunders that aggravated its effectiveness. Tora! Tora! Tora! has been possibly the most accurate portrayal of the attack at Pearl Harbor that our War on Film crew has viewed so far. By presenting both an American perspective and a Japanese one there is much to discuss. Join us for Not a Robot's War on Film!
Today we honor Navy Ensign Herbert C. Jones who was on board the US California during the Pearl Harbor attack. Herbert was helping load manual ammunition when an explosion severely injured him and trapped his fellow shipmates. Orders were then given to abandon ship. Unable to flee he demanded they leave him there while they saved themselves. In March 1942, Jones posthumously received the Medal of Honor for his bravery and sacrifice.

Not A Robot's War on Film

Set-bound in the trenches of WW1, The Trench was a 1999 movie starring Daniel Craig. This mediocre movie depicted a mediocre story about a group of soldiers and their last days before the battle of the Somme in 1916. Regardless of a few cinematic snafus the War on Film Podcast team truly enjoyed talking about this film and we know you will enjoy listening!

My Boy Jack
written in 1916
by Rudyard Kipling
"Have you news of my boy Jack?”
Not this tide.
"When d'you think that he'll come back?"
Not with this wind blowing, and this tide.
"Has any one else had word of him?"
Not this tide.
For what is sunk will hardly swim,
Not with this wind blowing, and this tide.
"Oh, dear, what comfort can I find?"
None this tide,
Nor any tide,
Except he did not shame his kind—
Not even with that wind blowing, and that tide.
Then hold your head up all the more,
This tide,
And every tide;
Because he was the son you bore,
And gave to that wind blowing and that tide!

Not A Robot's War on Film
11/18/21 • 79 min
Today we review the 2017 movie Journey's End, a movie that undeniably sparked emotion. Usually an optimistic bunch, soldiers often think that they will survive the wars in which they fight.
In this film, our main characters move closer to their demis with every tick of their pocket watch and they must decide how to spend their days. Some continue with their duties, as usual, others turn to drink, while others fill in the silence between shelling with all manners of coping. Does any of it even matter when the journey ends?
Today we honor four-star General Colin Luther Powell who was born on April 5th, 1937, and died October 18, 2021. Colin Powel was a veteran of the Vietnam war a statesman, a diplomat, and as 65th in line, he was the first black man to serve as the United States Secretary. He was a true patriot and a great example of selfless service.

Ep 34: Not A Robot's War on Film - Pearl Harbor, 2001
Not A Robot's War on Film
12/09/21 • 125 min
In this episode, we review the 2001 Michael Bay film Pearl Harbor, starring Josh Harnett, Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale, and Jennifer Garner. As the name suggests, this film depicts the surprise attack made by the Japanese against America on December 7th, 1941.
Today we honor Doris Miller, born 1919, and served on the battleship West Virginia during the Pearl Harbor attack. He was the first black American to be awarded the navy cross, which is the highest decoration for valor in combat after the medal of honor. After he survived the attack on Pearl Harbor and was awarded the navy cross Miller became a prominent civil rights figure for the military at that time. Tragically he was killed during another Japanese attack while serving on an aircraft carrier in November of 1943. Doris Miller was 24 years old.
We salute you and that you for your service.
