It's a series that the History channel has been running this week. Tonight is the first time I've watched it, it's really something. Lots of color film, and film from the war. Very impressive.

I'm kicking myself for not watching it sooner. I generally don't buy movies, but I do believe I'll be ordering this on DVD.

Ditto - it's amazing.

I felt like I should have been fondling my Garand all through it. :yum:

We could NEVER win that war today.

I believe they said there are less then 10,000 veterans of WWII alive today.

I have been watching and the look on some of the vets making comments is heartbreaking. A couple say they still fight the fights and see the sights when they sleep.

Something to never be forgotten is the face of armed conflict.

Been watching this. Great show.

Just had a few Vet's visit our museum from the 81st ID. There were 23 that visited with this group last year., 8 are left. They all fought at Pelilu together. The look in there eyes.

I have been soldiering 34 years. Never seen anything like these hero's. Different time, different war .

It's back on tonight, for anyone like me that hasn't seen all the episodes or wants to see them again. Not sure what time it started, but it goes until 7:00 PM.
