"Band of Brothers"

[Admiral Huddy]

I missed them when they were first broadcasted and I've been meaning to buy the DVDs since. No need! Found all episodes of this series on V demand. Started watching them on Sunday and I've only 3 left.

Fantastic WWII series that follows US Airbourne 101st Easy company from the days of operation Overlord, Market Garden in Holland to the final days.

I have to say, and I'm not afraid to admit, but this is moving stuff and has had me on the brink of a few tear jerking moments.



Absolutely a must see

''History doesn't have much impact if you just issue a bunch of dates and military manoeuvres. It is most effective when it features drama between real people, and when the real human cost is evident.''

It amazes me that this actually happened and how lucky we all are. I'm not sure what drove these men forward. Tremendous bravery.
