My dad legitimately thinks that's a great action movie. And to be fair, it is.

"The mobile infantry made me the man I am today" shows off two missing legs and one missing arm
In the books it’s explained the man is missing his legs specifically to scare people away and show them the potential consequences of service, so people really understand what can and does happen and do not sign up just for fleeting glory or to look cool.
I really didn't feel like that needed to be more obvious than it was in the movie. Where would you even find trees to make even more massive clue-by-fours to hit people over the head with?
