They show Patton being "put back on active duty" just in time for the Battle of the Bulge. In reality, Patton led the break out from the Hedgerow country in late July/early Aug 44 and the surrounding of the Germans at Falais. He then sped across France like a rocket. Ended up in the Metz, France area by November. AND then led the Southern march into the Bulge in late December.

I also saw the Japanese ships with Aegis Phased Array radar and domed radar on the masts and one scene of a paratroop drop out of C-130s!!!

Thanks for posting that. I almost thought I was watching a commercial for another show (I tend to keep the volume down at times)...what a HOOT! Now granted it appeared to be a computer generated image but - C'mon! Who is generating a computer image of a WWII Japanese ship with that kind of stuff? Hell...if they had that they would have torched our asses at Midway.
