I bought these DVDs for my Dad for his birthday. He watched them all in about 3 days. He loved the series. I can't wait to watch them.
BEST MOVIE ABOUT WORLD WAR II July 8, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I teach American History in high school and this DVD gets the point across to students in a way that no documentary or the standard two-hour movie.
The strongest points of the movie is it is completely true and story-lines not inserted to make it appealing to the public and it does not create super hero types though Major Winters and Mathew Settle's character showed the true spirit and toughness of the American GI.
I do not mean to single out those two as more heroic because Richard Winters sums up the role of every man in Easy company with his parting letter to his grandchild. Anyone not moved by Winter's letter has no heart nor understands how war bonds men.
I knew a man who was a paratrooper, not in Easy Company, who was twenty-five years older than me and we spent hours talking about his experiences after D-Day and the march into Germany. He was another silent hero and told me that he had never talked to anyone about his experiences in World War II until he crossed my path.
His name was Dick Morgan and we met in Savannah, Ga. in the early 1970s. At that time, he was selling office products and I was one of his customers. He tolerated fifteen years of my pulling information out of him. He died in 1988 and since I began teaching school in 1991, I have made a point of every class knowing who Dick Morgan was and what he did during World War II.
He earned that just as all of the veterans of World War II did with their service to our country. Anyone reading this review will have to excuse my addition of Dick to it but he is someone that all Americans owe a huge debt and someone I will never forget.

DVD's came in excellent condition and on time. They were brand new as advertised. No problems at all.
Best WWII Mini-Series July 6, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
By far the best WWII mini-series. Production qualities are excellent. Acting at times is weak, but main actors do cause you to empathize with their characters, and draw you in to the story.
