Post by: Allhallowsday on May 29, 2022, 01:50:36 PM
The HISTORY CHANNEL for Memorial Day weekend broadcast a terrific 3 or 4 hour WWI / WWII program with vintage footage, recreations, commentary and speedy delivery without slop or gossip.  It highlighted the global politics World leaders CHURCHILL FDR military giants like PATTON MacArthur EISENHOWER.   I learned things I was not taught in grammar school.  Like Japan was an ally of England France USA in WWI contributed troops and was ignored in Peace negotiations.  Then the program segued to the precarious state of the West within 20 years by the Treaty of Versailles.  stalin hitler mussolini covered in detail but with broad strokes.  Nicely encapsulated history lesson and entertaining side from their usual fare.  Of slop.   :thumbup:
