John Kettler Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 It's 9:00 p.m. PDT where I am, and the two hour program just started. Features interviews, footage, and reenactments. Looks good so far. Regards, John Kettler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kettler Posted June 11, 2004 Author Share Posted June 11, 2004 It was well worth watching. Far better than I dared hope. Terrific footage, much of it new to me, ditto the interviews, which included Otway describing how he and his men stormed the Merville battery enfilading Sword Beach, an account from one of two German MG gunners who survived in one sector of Omaha Beach, and some harrowing stories from survivors of the clash between the King's Shropshire Light Infantry and 21st Panzer. There was a real Mk III Special or a very good copy. Had some war stories I'd never heard before. Pray Discovery Channel runs it again.
