* Moore decides to pre-empt the inevitable NVA dawn attack by staging one of his own. He orders his men to fix bayonets in a sequence which both chills and excites and then leads them in a death or glory charge with the soldiers (and audience!) roaring their battle cries.

** Colonel Moore shows Galloway his appreciation shortly after; he walks away from the other reporters, who have been barraging him with horribly insensitive questions, without saying a word. But he shares an emotional talk with Galloway just a moment later, showing just how much he respects Galloway for being in the midst of the battle, rather than waiting like the other reporters did. He remarks he's glad that Galloway survived.

* In a deleted scene immediately after the battalion returns home, Moore hands Crandall a busted up cigar and remarks that it's seen a little wear. Crandall proudly sticks it in his mouth. The battalion forms up and proudly marches through the middle of the camp to their tents, and Plumley tells Galloway to join them as he's earned it.

To a man, they are dressed in nice, clean clothing, whereas Galloway, who was there for the duration of the fighting, is clad in dirty, bloodstained fatigues. The difference is emphasized a moment later when a rocket detonates against the hillside a short distance away; all the reporters flinch and duck, but Galloway doesn't.
