Or am I missing something and he's actually supposed to be from Ireland?

Sorry, I'm an actor an an accent snob now, and I'm mostly curious to see if anyone else noticed this. Someone that isn't an accent snob.
I never noticed probably since Ireland was in the British Empire, Irishmen served in the British Navy, and there were even Irishmen living in England. Or maybe I was too concerned with the movie sucking to care. I thought Thin Red Line was good but I've lost all respect for this writter since I'm sure he used some of the same lines in The New World.
