Was cute, but not accurate.

I'm in a high school with a junior ROTC program and I thought this movie didn't capture everything entirely accurate. Kelly would've been expelled for the way she acted. And that clap thing they did, there is nothing quite just like that drill team wise in real life. There are teams classified as unarmed exhibition, but they would never really do things the way they did. Military bearing was not kept in the clap thing they did, which judges never would've liked. Otherwise, to anyone oblivious to they way things really are, it's a good movie.
