Is anybody watching the 10 part series on the History channel? It's all color footage which took over 2 years to find. Almost everything I've watched on the war is in black and white but seeing it in color is unbelievable, almost looks like a different war.

Wife won't let me watch the History channel, at least on her TV, so I watch it on mine in the back room (man cave)!  all the time!

I've seen the old war films that were in color and your right, looks way different.

  One of the locally prominent photographers is said to have used color film in the military and was on the cutting edge when it was declassified, later.

I've been watching it off and on. Interesting, to say the least.
I've been a WW2 buff since I was a little bitty bashful.

Yes, I've been watching it all week.  My tv stays on the History Channel, Discovery Channel or the Military Channel...or Fox News.  Can't find anything decent to watch on the 200 other channels.... uglystupid2

" "[The U.S. is] becoming more juvenile as a nation. The guys who won World War II and that whole generation have disappeared, and now we have a bunch of teenage twits "
