Editorial Reviews:
This is the pilot episode for the popular TV series that made Dana Delany a star. Set at the 510th EVAC Hospital at China Beach, Vietnam, the movie presents the stories of the doctors, nurses, soldiers and USO entertainers who populated the base. Each character struggles to find their own way to deal with their personal problems and the war surrounding them.

Summary: jayc
Comment: This was indeed one of the BEST programs ever and I too would buy every season if it were to come out on DVD! What is the hold up here? It seems you can get the DVD for programs that are still available in reruns but this high quality show sits collecting dust somewhere? Just don't get it....

Summary: These women were important and deserve to have their voices heard.
Comment: I have never seen a show like this, and know that I never will. In times of war, women are often forgotten; the invisible support pushed out of the limelight by the action-packed experience of combat soldiers. China Beach tried to change that. It portrayed women in various different capacities during the Vietnam war. Nurses, prostitutes, Red Cross workers, enlisted women, officers, reporters, performers... China Beach gave them faces, histories, futures, pain, and joy. The show had an arc; it showed what happened to non-combatants both in country and back in the world after their tours. Women are often forgotten, but China BEach made that impossible. Go to the Women's monument at the Wall in DC and try not to superimpose the face of Dana Delaney onto any of those nurses.

I'm not going to preach, but this show needs to be on DVD. Right now. Honor the vets with their story told from every point of view. I can buy every episode of "Masters of the Universe" but not China Beach? This show won four Emmys and was nominated for many more. The show is marketable: Tour of Duty sells like hotcakes, as does Platoon and other Vietnam movies, Marg Helgenberger is hotter than hot with CSI, and the production team is well-known for making quality programming. Please please please release this on DVD. It is a travesty that it is unavailable.
