Kelly's Heroes

[Outlaw Josey Wales]

The thing I would love to see is more series like Band of Brothers, but not limited to just a U.S. unit. I'd love to see a rotation or several coming out each year covering units from all countries. Let's see one folloing 51st Highland or 21st Pz or.........you get the drift. Every country involved had units that could have something to tell. Devil's Bde was an entertaining movie, but let's see something better. Rangers, 45th inf, something from the Finns, Italians, Rumanians, Hungarians, French, Poles etc etc. Somebody with the money needs to keep the memory of that generation alive forever not just a side note in a history class. Show something with an SS unit to actually prove to those doubters there really was a difference between frontline SS and the camp guards.

About the Tigers, last I heard there were three operational that were used in SPR. How true that is, I don't know, but does make sense. I also saw a program once about a company on the west coast actually makes all kinds of AFVs for movies use, but in reality are cars or trucks on the inside and look like AFVs from the outside. It was interesting show.

Also saw an article about some of these guys that renovate AFVs. They own a lot of land and actually had warehouses built to do the work and store the completed ones. One was somewhere in Oregon or Washington. I would love to go there some day.
