Heartbreak Ridge

Clint Eastwood plays tough-as-nails marine sergeant Tom Highway, who's got his work cut out when he's assigned to whip a platoon of unruly new Marines into shape. He faces his own, often humorous battles with his ex-wife (Marsha Mason) and his by-the-book commanding officers, but still manages to train his troops and command their respect -- lessons that are put to use when the Grenada invasion suddenly brings the platoon into battle.
