Me (super) too bro'! I've lent my late mum's copy to all sorta peeps. FOX,


CNN, and everything in between...

ALL of 'em have told me: "struggling to stay awake to get to
the next commercial break." From an extremely wide-based disparate set of viewers mind yah.

It's that damn epic.
That well-done cinematography and setting/costuming wise.

I loved "pug" via Ro.Mitchum; he's as good as it possibly gets. Only peep
to remind me just a little minute of my late pop. That Greatest Gen. "git 'er done"
and any and all costs, "we just gonna go do this or we ain't coming back", mentality...

Nothing like it.
I've never seen people like that, either.

Also does an epic job of hitting the raw terror that was the nazi Sheads and s.s.
And that show hits hard on the heartstrings, and family splits that really is War.
What a different time that was for the whole World.
Truly tilting on the brink until 1943-44'ish.

Easily my all-time Historical fave.
Nothing is, close.
Nothing.

p.s. in Herman's WofW book; one of the flyboys is from... Bluefield, Wva!
