The War on PBS
If you’re not watching The War on PBS, you’re missing a very interesting and informative show. It’s a Ken Burns documentary about WW II, that began last week and will go on for about 8 weeks, I think. I suggest looking it up in your tv schedule. It comes on here at 7 pm and lasts until 9 and then comes on again later. You can also find info online: http://www.pbs.org/greatwar/
They’ve interviewed some of the people who were directly involved–some have never talked about the war until now! The loss of so many soldiers through careless planning, and maybe just ignorance, breaks your heart!
I was surprised tonight to hear the name of a professor who taught at the college I went to, Dr Eugene Sledge. I didn’t have a class with him but I remember hearing people talk favorably
about him.
Tonight’s show will be the Battle of the Bulge.
