20th Century Battlefields

[Markio]

If you like that sort of thing.

Well that generated a flurry of interest.

 

I trried to watch it but kept failing asleep. That's not a reflection on the programme as the bits i did see looked very interesting.

 

WWII, Battle of Midway next week.

I`m saving myself for the trip to France in 2015 for the 600th anniversary of THE greatest victory/slaughter to see the fields of Agincourt.

 

.And you, good yeoman,

Whose limbs were made in England, show us here

The mettle of your pasture; let us swear

That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;

For there is none of you so mean and base,

That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.

I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,

Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:

Follow your spirit, and upon this charge

Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

I watched a bit of it, but I find the Snow's style of presentation coma inducing.

I went to Normandy 2004 for the 60th Anniversary of the D-Day Landings. Big mistake. I knew it would be busy but didn't account for access to north Normandy being cut off. DOH! :blink:

 

Still, got to see Pegasus Bridge the day before on the 5th.

Don't like him, and the son's no better.
