hi,
i have an interest in ww2 air combat. So... here's a couple worth finding
"A Piece of Cake" will prob never be on dvd, ask me if i care. 'Piece..'
is a wonderful Brit docudrama that follows a Brit spit squad ( based on a
powerful book of the same name, was a Hurricane squad in the book ) from
just before the war to the peak of BoB, ahh, that's the Battle of Britain
to most. The Battle of Britain is a remarkable piece of history.
"Tuskeegee Airmen" is a stirring account of the first US black pilots. Like 'Cake', i have seen it several times, HBO did a very nice job making this one.
"China Beach" yup, this was a TV series, it's out on tape now. Rent or buy the first episode, you won't wonder why i threw it in. After you have seen the rest, and witness the last episode, you will likely be stunned, i was.
