Who stole my war?
Categories: Film
Several passages from the film mimic scenes that appear in Turnipseed's book. However, in the Times piece screenwriter William Broyles, Jr. denies that there was any pilfering, arguing that the scenes in question are common to many Marine Corps experiences.
"I feel bad that he feels bad," Mr. Broyles said, adding that he had read and admired "Baghdad Express." "Maybe some of it stuck in my mind or maybe it was already there," he said.
Turnipseed has retained an attorney to look into the matter.
