I got 10 out of 10 because I've watched every one of these military shows. Because I had their theme songs in my mind.
9/10... not bad considering more than one of those were guesses. Knew China Beach, JAG and Tour of Duty right away though... have all three series on DVD, and never missed an episode when they were first broadcast.
10/10 because I don't think I watched any of them. But do remember the promos and theme music (because my parents would watch them)!
