Have been DVRing this Series Tom Hanks was a part of in 2007. Really well done.
PBS has been re-airing it. Patton, McArthur, Eisenhower to Japanese-American Soldiers with Parents in inturnment camps and Crow Indians who would one day return Home to become one of the last Modern Day War Chiefs and all the folks here at Home who worked and sacrificed to put a stop to Nazi Plans that even divided America up into sectors should they be successful in driving us out of Europe and invading us...
What awful times that led to such greatness. The Love Letters and Letters to Home that were written but never sent to keep from upsetting their Wives and Families. The stories of pilots who could only put out fires in their aircraft by diving straight towards the Earth in actions that would keep them from burning to death but would surely be the death of them because they never had the altitude to pull out of the dive.
Just amazing heart wrenching stories of tragedy, loyalty, patriotism, great Leaders, terrible leaders, Heroes, love lost, Love Enduring...
This and the many other movies like it wil hopefully be archived and serve to teach History to help avoid mistakes or inspire Americans should another Hitler or Emperor try to mess with my children or my children's children.
God Bless all those who were involved in WWII and the times before and after that awful conflict.
