It’s very good. Watched it several times. I was little disappointed with the second offering, “Pacific,” however.

Read the book if you are so inclined. The series follows the book almost exactly. I think I have watched the series at least 5 times. “The Pacific” is excellent as well. I read both of the books that that series was based on and that one took a few dramatic licenses compared to the books but it is still great.

With the Old Breed: At Pelilu and Okinawa by Eugene Sledge and Helmet For My Pillow by Robert Leckie are the two books that “The Pacific is based on and the book “Band of Brothers” was written by David Ambrose.
