Default Re: "The Pacific" follow up to Band of Brothers

I just finished "Helmet for My Pillow" by Robert Leckie, and read "With the Old Breed" by sledge a few months ago. Writing styles are different for both Marines. Leckie being a professional writer and all. Sledges book tends to be more graphic, while Leckie is a bit more poetic. I like to see how they tie the two stories together. The story of MOH winner John Basalone also gets thrown into the mix. Hopefully they do a good job adding his story into it.
