Darn, this is no fun without any Germans around...  Grin


BTW, wasn't band of Brothers a series, not a movie... Perhaps you are confusing with Saving Private Ryan?

Yes Band of Brothers is a mini-series, Saving Private Ryan is a movie. They are both top in their class.

As for The War, I have been watching it nightly on my local station. It is outstanding, as is all of Ken Burns work. I you enjoy The War, I highly recommend you get "The Civil War". It is the best documentary I have ever seen, hands down.

History is a wonderful thing!
