Military movies are more enjoyable after being vet-splained, family reports

THE LIVING ROOM — It's a typical evening with the Jankowski family as they sit together watching a movie. On screen, soldiers are jumping into action when everything suddenly freezes. That can only mean one thing. Daddy's about to drop a knowledge bomb.

"Okay, anybody spot it?" asks 1st Sgt. Eric Jankowski. His wife Victoria looks at their 12-year-old daughter before smiling and taking the first guess.

"The flag on the lieutenant's shoulder should be subdued?" she asks.
