those guys were patriots in every sense of the word, they didn't even have proper winter clothing. That shelling sequence in the Bastogne episode was so insane, how about when Spiers ran through the German lines at the end! and he really did that as well. Of course there was no liberal media to show him shooting up those German POWs, the media really doesn't belong in war, all it does is turn the people who aren't there against it. Thats quoting an Ex-Iraqi Freedom Vet by the way, could you imagine if our modern media was there during Market Garden? Battle of the Bulge? or even the bloody shorelines of the D-Day beaches and having a running tally of the number of soldiers killed. Although I don't believe thats why we lost Vietnam, Vietnam was lost because we didn't fight it right. You put boots on the ground in the North, you bomb the Vietcong trails in Cambodia.
