Is anyone following the weekly episodes on Friday night on the History Channel? Each week from the beginning of the war the USS Enterprise's battles are recreated in CGI along with file footage and with eyewitness dialogue.
I am. I record them with tivo and watched them the following morning (Saturday). I like the series especially the new episode and Midway were the better ones so far.
I watched the one on the battle of Santa Cruz last week and thought it was pretty good. The computer graphics aren't as good as those from "Dogfights," but its still an incredible show.
I watch this too - very informative and interesting show! Did anyone catch the episode a few weeks back where the carrier deckhand jumped in the rear gun mount of a parked Dauntless (I believe) and shot down the Betty bomber attempting to ram the carrier deck? WOW - props to that guy, that was an amazing story I'd never heard before!
