This will be absolutely incredible.

I would highly recommend reading "With the Old Breed," one of the two books this miniseries is based on. "Helmet For My Pillow" is just kind of meh.

I had an uncle who was drafted into the Coast Guard during WWII and was placed on a vessel in the Pacific, he was 6'5" and weighed about 220 when he arrived on board, and weighed 155 when they finally determined his sea sicknees was not going to abate.  At this point they put him on Guam and made a carpenter out of him.  He always told me this story about Guam, he said he saved a girl from being raped, when I asked him how he replied, "I quit chasing her"

Wish I had money to burn for that hour a week for HBO  :frown: 

Have to wait for DVD like I did for BoB, unless someone finds a good link online (no torrents--they suck slow ass).

The slow torrent comment must be a joke, you can max out your connection if you have enough seeds.

Every time I've tried, its slow--like several hours slow.

when i first read the thread title I thought it said The Pacifier  :lol: immediately thought of Vin Diesel.
Why is it Hollywood uses these huge muscley men for nanny type positions??.....I'll tell you why, its hilarious.
