Seems to be a cracker. Let's hope it won't be an over-dramatized Hollywood war movie in which Uncle Sam takes credit for everything, like so many others

It seems to cover a fair bit of famous happenings in WWII, like the BoB, the Doolittle Raid, and even the little-covered subject of the war in Burma.

If this is based on the book by Stephen Ambrose and is true to it...then it should be an exceptional movie-- I saw him on C-Span over the Christmas break and he is an amazing author and historian.

Guys, its a 10 part ( each part of one hour -thats 10 hours of war movie!) series based on the Stephen Ambrose novel. Its about the 101st so I hope it involves all their campaigns. I know Tom Hanks is directing an episode and it also has alot of links with SPR. You in the US should see it on HBO soon..
