Guess you missed the thread where my grandfather left me his Playboy collection. (Every issue from 1977-2003, including Pac-10 and and all other special edition issues).

Woah... cool.

BTW, If they do end up showing the BoB interview section where they sit down with each person depicted in the movie and watch them give their first hand accounts of their experiences, watch it. It's a real tear jerker, i admit, i cried like a little schoolgirl when i watched those interviews.

id have to assume theyre on the DVDs?

[Squeeky]

That's a safe bet. I saw it on HBO.

The interviews are on the DVDS. My advice is read the book and then sit down and watch the shows again. For example, in the battle where the Germans beat the Americans (not sure if Bastogne). It is the one where the paratroopers pull out. In the book they talk about how they were on leave when they got pulled into action. All the resources form all across Europe were sent into this campaign. If they were successfull the would have ended the war in a few months. As it were, they lost mightily which cost them many, many, many months of war. In the book you get the magnitude of what was occuring, while in the shows you only get the feeling that it was a small engagement.

I admit I got goosebumps numerous times when reading the books.

The Book is Great, the series has left out a few things from the book but its got all the good parts.

The invasion of the Low Countries was the one we lost. We pwned the Nazis at Bastogne.

[Everay]

it happened in belgium, and ill admit too, that was one episode in the series, but it took a big part in the book (a chapter), and there were many intense battles there.

[Biohazzard56]

Watching now.

[Squeeky]

Just watched the movie and wanted to say that it is the best movie I've ever seen. The movie rocks. Thanks Bio and Squeeky for posting this here I would never think of turning to THC otherwise .
