Maybe I'll get some popcorn, who knows?

There's footage I haven't even seen before and I've been around for awhile!

Status: offline 		I just got finished watching tonight's episode. A few Shermans, couple M10's, a blown up Panzer IV in some of the footage. Some crazy battle footage. This episode ended up as a tearjerker.. I've watched a lot of WWII documentaries over the years, but this one is probably one of the most well done.
