Buncha posts about how Saving Private Ryan has no Brits in the immediate vicinity of Omaha, and yet in 16 pages of what would make good shows, not one “Red Army but based on Soviet memoirs, not Enemy at the Gates”

That last scene where Sledge is on the train asleep, and Sanfu looks at him as he leaves and decides not waking him up would be the better choice. I hope he looked up Sledge and sent him a letter saying thanks for being a bud.

With the Old Breed has a bit that I wish had been put in the show, where they launch mortar rounds at a bunch of Japanese officers they caught in the open having lunch, and the round that landed on the table failed to go off. Sledge is blamed for the failure saying he didn't remove the arming pins from the mortar rounds, but he went back to where they were fired from to find the discarded pins to prove that yes, he did his job correctly, it was just that round was a dud.

Josh Helman who must be Nick Hoults bff because they're in a lot of movies together.

irl they didn't meet again for 35 years. But Snafu was eventually a pallbearer at Sledge's funeral.

Maybe have a more productive discussion. Was it good or bad when the Masters of the Air dropped the a-bombs?

Sometimes I remember that WW1 Goering was actually good at his job. Meth is a bitch.
