PEACE!
However that has nothing to do with WW2.
What i am really intrested in is a facisnating documentry that i watched a few weeks ago called unearthing the Australien front which was about the planned Japenese invasion of Australia. I have been trying to get via internet ect.. but i cannot seem to find it anywhere. Do you have it? And if you possibly do could you send it to me. It will help cure my irrestible intrest in the Australien front.
As you said though, it was really more of collection of personal accounts than overview of the war. To be frank, if someone were to make a similar series about the Soviets, Poles, Germans, etc., I think it might just be too depressing for many Americans to watch and a lot of people would skip out on it just as a result of it not focusing on Americans.
I personally did like it though because I saw a bit of the Civil War series made by the same director and had it carry over to this series.
