    The Pacific

    Anybody watch the Pacific last night on HBO?
    Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg's 10 part follow up to Band of Brothers.
    They are doing 3 episodes on the Battle of Peleliu based on the book "With the Old Breed".
    Amazing book, hard to believe men could be that tough and courageous.
    My wife and I got to tour Peleliu in 05 and I can't wait to see them tell story of this unsung battle.

          That battle is one of many that is drummed into your head while in Basic Training On Parris Island. Not quite as bad as IWO but .....
