Thank you Richard for sharing these and more importantly for Your Service to our Country.

Richard, did you see Band of Brothers? If so what did you think of that one?
Sorry, Matt -- I haven't enjoyed a Hollywood war movie in many years. I think "The Longest Day" was the last one. Ken Burns' documentaries replaced them. I'm not being snobbish -- I know that some actors and directors really experienced war and were capable of bringing the horrors and poignancy and bitterness to the screen, but their best efforts will be diminished and sabotaged in editing of the "final" print, or in the selection of the theaters.
