Stretch Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 I think if you can stick it out a few episodes Well I am enjoying it.. so also person taste etc.. (although enjoy is perhaps not the right word..damn it's harsh..there is nothing enjoyable about what those young lads went through) Also I have a WWI and WWII expert next to me always giving me more insight Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk WW2 fascinates me immensely and the pacific war is one part of it I am not too clued up on...so maybe it is time. While we are on the subject - have you ever watched this video about the deaths of war..it is chilling to say the least. Well worth a watch Gen and Stiglitz86 2

Lurch the stalker Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 one of my mom's late cousins served in the afrika corp. lots of stories to tell, normally starting with how he got the huge bronze/brass shell casing standing on his mantle piece. While utterly fascinating, its clear: i wish war upon no one.Both my grandfathers served in North Africa, and my one grandmother was in a concentration camp in Russia so it's a topic that's always been close to me.The one grandfather passed away before I was born, but the other one's stories are the reason that I served.

Stretch Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 my grandfather was a captain of the Southern Maid and spent his time in the waters of the Mediterranean. he received two DSC's. one for rescuing survivors of a bombed supply ship for tobruk and protecting them from enemy attack. and the other for destroying a German sub.

Stretch Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 started S03 of Fargo as much as I love Carrie Coon...she just cant keep her Minnesota accent...and Ewan Mcgregor also keeps switching between an pseudo scottish and Minnesotan accent. enjoying the storyline though...but the accents re bugging me

Sean Connery's in anything non-Scottish. The Untouchables etc. Both got best supporting actor Oscars for those roles even though the accents are truly awful. I'm with you on the Ewan McGregor accent foibles.

The accent is as important as the storyline
