Ya know, I liked it, Ive got the box set, and Ive watched it quite a few times? But I dont think that they did any more -or any less- than all the other units that participated. It oftentimes irritates me that they are portrayed as the saviours of Bastogne when the 28th the 10th and the 9th held the krauts off way before the 101 got there, and that was after 2 or 3 months in the Hurtgen.
I agree with you there. I have noticed that a few less informed people tend to think everything shown in the series is fact and to use it as a reference. Its not.
