Default Re: The History Channel: Tiger Tank: Special Episode

There was an absolutely outstanding hour of television on the History Channel 6 PM tonight January 6th 2008:
- it was an episode on the best Tiger Tank models.
See: Weapons at War: Hitler's War Machine - On TV - History Television

By far and away the best hour on tanks I have ever seen. Completely new throughout to me - outstanding, heart wrending interviews with tank commanders, film footage of US Intelligence: test firing at captured models to determine weak points et cetera. This is one that I am, for sure, going to be recording if scheduling allows a repeat showing.

I recall very few documentaries on History.ca (or elsewhere for that matter) of this quality.
