“Bourbon Aocalypse? Will the 20 or so bottles I have be enough to survive?

It’s funny how standards have changed over the decades. “Victory at Sea” replays on A&E were staples of my youth, and were rife with misplaced and overused footage. Don’t even get me started on a lot of the WWII films (M48s as Panthers/Tigers and Chaffees as Shermans in Battle of the Bulge) and TV shows ( Baa Baa Blacksheep ... ‘nuff said)

I thought Winds of War/War and Remembrance were very well done series considering the time they came out. Wouk’s writings were very detailed, and the series did an excellent job of adapting the books.

You forgot Midway with recycled footage from Tora Tora Tora and stock footage of Hellcats and Helldivers and other late war aircraft and ships.
