The Japanese, the stories that he told me was mental, he was in the Air Force so when he was going to take off 11 kamakazies struck his naval and he had to jump off the side of the naval to survive, he said the fall was the most painful thing in his life, he ended up fighting on ground with no experience because he had no plane.

[@BJR1977]

One of the greatest TV series ever produced. I remember watching it when it was released. Whilst it's recollection of war, it's greatest feature was the fantastic depiction of "MEN" banding together to achieve a common goal of ridding the world of tyranny. It was also a wonderful representation of the great love and devotion these men had for each other in face of grave danger. It's an absolute shame in today's woke modern world, the way society criticise men banding together in the same way to achieve and/or complete difficult goals that the naysayers think are impossible. Today these bonds are looked down upon as the "patriarchy" stealing everyone's opportunity and ruining the fabric of society. Box them up whilst we don't need them they say, but as soon as a war like this emerges sometime in the future, they will expect men like this to be un-boxed and sent off to do the killing and possibly sacrifice everything dear to them!

[@TheElectronNinja]

@@drichreq3748 Then again, the boy could have been a die hard fascist that was devoted to serving to Hitler. It is a possibility. By far the saddest moment in the entire series aside from the Holocaust in episode 9 that I just remembered is Malarkey mocking a German soldier in Day of Days. Malarkey said "Where're you from son" in a condescending tone thinking that he couldn't understand him. Then the soldier responds in an American accent with "Eugene Oregon". Stunned, Malarkey glanced back and then shared that he too was from Oregon. They shared a nice friendly exchange of life experiences before Malarkey was forced to leave. They said their goodbyes and Malarkey walked on. A little ways down the road, he heard gunfire from a M1A1 Thompson behind him. He turned to see that all the German POW's, including the man he had just befriended, were gunned down in cold blood by Lt. Speirs. By far the hardest part for me to watch in the series aside from the Holocaust.

Supposedly, she heard someone say "if only this war lasts long enough, I'll be able to pay of my mortgage." Obviously, with her son overseas, this infuriated her.
