Also, have you watched "World War 2 in HD"? I bet ya have, but if you haven't, you need to buy it immediately, hahah. There is also a "Vietnam in HD" which is great as well. It covers the battle known as Hamburger Hill and interviews soldiers that were there...I really liked that because the unit that was involved was the same I was in.
I do have the military channel which is where i watch a lot of docs.
When the history channel spends the time to create a good doc, its worth the watch, but there recent obsession with pawn stores ha kind of killed there true history shows.
Last week i watched a doc on the luftwaffe and it was amazing. It was somewhat of a tribute to there superior air skills and it was interesting to learn about them. Theres a couple of luftwaffe docs on youtube that i also watched and there backgrounds are very interesting. Most of the time, you only see docs from the side of our defenses on television, which is understandable but there were some amazing fighter pilots on the axis side. They could overtake an airfield in no time, and quite frankly if it werent for the dog fights we had over the japanese and luftwaffe, im not sure the rest of the allies could have handled them.
Docs like these always spill over to the blitz and i love seeing docs on Churchill and how they dealt with that.
A lot of interesting stuff out there that most people find boring, is actually better than any movie they come out with today if they'd just watch the docs.
I think im going to start trying to find docs on actualy militay strategy for my next round. Id like to find some good docs on our strategies in Normandy.
