As you suggested, footage of this nature probably ended up on the floor or they just didn't interview the right people.
My father-in-law fought in the ETO; my father was a Marine who fought in the Pacific; I'm a former Marine who fought in Vietnam.
I've known hundreds of combat vets in my life and I'm here to tell you, there are no atheists in foxholes. It is not by chance that not a single vet interviewed by Burns mentioned God.

You’re Wrong. My father was Navy WWII, Father-in-law a marine on Iwo Jima, I’m a VN vet 68-71. None of us believers in the magic sky fairy. Two good friends in VN full Indians, Not christian. I’m an atheist and have been.
SO while I’m sure you are correct in the majority, there certainly are atheists in foxholes. I was one and know many others.
