Anywho, it is when the Asian American soldier gets caught up in a misdirected napalm blast and is severely burned on most of his body. The medic comes over and asks a photographer to help him move the soldier to the chopper, and tells him to grab his legs. When the photographer does, he pulls, and takes handfulls of chared skin off the guys legs, almost down to the bone, as he screams bloody murder. When they finally get him on the chopper, he tells the photographer to tell his wife and kids he loves them. That scene sends chills down my spine even now.

Yeah... damn good scene...
but, did you see at the beginning of the film, when there's a french platoon being ambushed?
There's a french soldier who, as he is about to blow a bugle gets shot in the throat... I thought that was brilliant
