Thanks very much and most sincerely Sir. I never knew the man , just heard a very few things from my Grandma.(All of them good , he was just different after) The booze killed him. My mom , my 2 aunts and my uncle had a great dad. I was the only one Granny talked to about him after. They were of a tougher than a 2 dollar steak generation. : ]

2025-02-13 07:10:16 +0000 UTCThere is a documentary call Letters Home From Vietnam I saw man, many years ago. It had "Stars" reading actual letters from GI's that were in Vietnam. Powerful as hell. You might want too look for it. I think you might dig on it. : ]

2025-02-13 06:23:31 +0000 UTCHell yeah. Your comment makes me wish i'd focused a bit more. I vaguely remember watching Ep 1 or 2 awhile ago so maybe I wasn't as excited? But either way gonna lock in next episodes. Random but i'm sure this affects people different but I'm so used to David Schwimmer in friends that it was actually hard to take him serious. First time he yelled I legit laughed because my brain didn't have enough time haha. So it broke immersion a bit.. But I really enjoyed the wild ride of his character and the others with only one episode! I love digging through and understanding people. The motivations.. the insecurities.. The ego.. the dynamics of the power struggles? and roles they all play in this etc. excited for the next! ;)

2025-02-13 06:18:52 +0000 UTCOne of my all time favourite series/documentary, I say documentary because itβs based on the true events of the men/heroes at the beginning of each episode. No matter how many times I watch it, I get the chills every time. The scoring is hauntingly beautiful too which adds to the experience. A true masterpiece

2025-02-12 20:45:57 +0000 UTCI assume the account comes from several eyewitnesses. I suppose i understand them, truth hurts i guessπ

2025-02-12 19:54:19 +0000 UTCDeliberately feeding them pasta before forcing them on that run is wildπ

Calling ROSS the guy from walking dead made me laugh lol took time for me to adjust. Also FUN FACT: Me and my 2 sisters Jumped out of a SMALL green plane w white/black! Those reminded me.. No clue as to the time period but it was OLD, and sketchy. First time on a plane.. and we JUMPED OUT OF IT haha insane

2025-02-12 15:34:12 +0000 UTCSobel's family was not happy with the way Captain Sobel was portrayed but this this is how the man was described to Stephen Ambrose when he wrote the book.

2025-02-12 13:46:22 +0000 UTCThe guy you (I believe his name is Soebel?)recognize but aren't sure who the actor is is David Schwimmer. He was in Friends.

2025-02-12 13:44:35 +0000 UTCAnnd we're done. This was, to me , a Powerful as Hell 1st Episode out. Reaction , Sir , Bravo. Comments , I can read the respect and admiration for the show and subject matter. Bravo as well. And most surprisingly to me , how moving I found it. Can't really think of much to say at the moment , other than thanks again for getting me to watch it. Peace

2025-02-12 08:05:42 +0000 UTCTom Hanks was the #1 movie star in the world when he starred in the WW2 Film, Saving Private Ryan. Then he took all that money and produced this masterpiece and the follow up, The Pacific. Then he maybe did some other super questionable stuff... but we won't get into that.

2025-02-12 07:00:09 +0000 UTCBest miniseries of all time. To be clear. The show is based off of first hand accounts by the men being interviewed at the beginning.

2025-02-12 06:36:36 +0000 UTCI love this show.

2025-02-12 06:29:00 +0000 UTCI had forgotten this show was in the mix , so super stoked ta watch it first time with you. And judging by the comments so far , I do not expect to be disappointed. BTW , my Grandfather,(mom's side) was a POW. First my Grandmother got a telegram from the War Department saying he was MIA. Then , at some point later , got another one saying he was a POW. And the last one saying he was coming home. As the last of the family , I have all 3 telegrams , and his folded flag from his funeral. Crazy thing was , I'm the one who found the telegrams in an old cedar chest that belonged to my Grandmother that I saved from the junk truck to get refurbished. They had gotten pushed behind one of the bottom drawers. Crazy huh: ] Ok , Checklist Time - Fatty rolled and ready - Check - Beer freezer cold - Check - Smoke and Zippo - Check. And on a serious note , I will toast my Gramps , and I will toast all those that lived , and died during and after that War. Peace

2025-02-12 06:24:40 +0000 UTCHope you watch the "We Stand Alone Together" Documentary that goes with it afterwards with a bunch of the Vets you see at the beginning of each episode. Its an Hour 18 mins long. Even ifs it on your personal time.

2025-02-12 06:18:31 +0000 UTCEveryone with dialogue in this is famous now. They weren't then, but they are now. This is the #1 Kingmaker show.
Scott Asher
2025-02-12 05:29:57 +0000 UTCYes. It's Season 2 of WW2

2025-02-12 05:24:28 +0000 UTCI'll refer to this as a Documentary until the day I die.
