Yes, I watched all the war movies over the weekend on AMC.
In HH, the Airborne guys had a length of rope tied up in what I'd call a Reeve Coil and attached to their H harnesses via a caribeener. Looked like 20' or so of 1/2" 3-braid stuff. Why? Wouldn't this tend to hang you up? I know I wouldn't care for it and at no time did anyone use this piece of rope.
Gun-related--it looked like everyone was using the correct era M-16A1 unlike Platoon and the XM177s.
