Quote of the Day: Mel Gibson on basic training
HOLLYWOOD - Mel Gibson, who fully engaged in basic training to prepare for his role in We Were Soliders, told the New York Post why it was so difficult:
"I felt like the old guy in the pack, especially when we were doing basic training to prepare for the jungle scenes.
"All the other guys beat the hell out of me on the obstacle course. I was tripping and flailing, and then they made us crawl on our stomachs under real barbed wire while they shot live ammo over the top of us.
"Frankly, I'd rather have been doing other things."
