Wild Bill Wilder Posted September 11, 2000 Share Posted September 11, 2000 As to Movies, there are so many that can relate to the time period of CMBO. Here are a few... The Longest Day D-Day, 6th of June Big Red One The Victors Hell is for Heroes Breathrough Patton Battleground (Bulge) When Trumpets Fade (Hurtgen) Attack A Bridge too Far Battle of the Bulge The Tanks are Coming Kelly's Heroes Some are semi-documentary type - others are pure fiction. Some good documentaries, well worth watching are: Battleground ( a series of 12) --Battle of Normandy --Battle of the Rhine D-Day (series of 3) Crusade in Europe (about 20 episodes based on the writings of DD Eisenhower) ------------------ Wild Bill Lead Tester Scenario Design Team Combat Mission-Beyond Overlord billw@matrixgames.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
