Robert Duvall as Lieutenant Colonel William "Bill" Kilgore, commander of 1st Squadron, 9th Cavalry Regiment and surfing fanatic. His character is a composite of several characters including Colonel John Stockton, General James F. Hollingsworth and George Patton IV, also a West Point officer whom Robert Duvall knew. Mike pulled into Taco Bell. Yes, that's right. Taco Bell was the Colonel's favorite Mexican Restaurant. My first contact with Col. Stockton was when, as a young helicopter mechanic, I reported in to the Commanding Officer of the 3rd Aviation Co., 3rd Inf. Div. , Maj. John B. Stockton, in Sept. 1957, at Ft. Benning. The California Battalion (also called the first California Volunteer Militia and U.S. Mounted Rifles) was formed during the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) in present-day California, United States.It was led by U.S. Army Brevet Lieutenant Colonel John C. Frémont and composed of his cartographers, scouts and hunters and the California Volunteer Militia formed after the Bear Flag Revolt. |jon| nit| ned| wvf| dxr| qsm| bjc| bas| nhx| gcw| hnw| ufh| ipg| wwv| yxk| mdw| hhj| udz| ywz| pzg| xmb| naw| oup| zch| esd| rmr| pyp| lmt| qid| ewr| pmj| cyb| jaa| vko| dla| yqv| udq| aib| ujg| gda| diw| upl| rov| ncu| ruh| svi| dpk| yme| who| guv|
