not even close :p vietnam was not a popular war, so not that marketable
Those wars are incredibly marketable, especially because they were not popular. And Vietnam in particular has Apocalypse Now, Platoon and Full Metal Jacket.

add a couple of movies and thats it, thats the extent of it, like i said 'tour of duty' wasnt popular, compare that to WWII and it dwarves in comparison

It wasn't popular, especially in Hollywood. That's why most of these movies are anti-war etc. But you can't tell me this is not enough:

Ya know, other than the great homage to the Iggy & the Stooges song, I kind of like Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell. Just pretty whack.
