Tomorrow “The Pacific” will debut on HBO, as 10-part miniseries based on Robert Leckie’s book titled “Helmet for My Pillow” and Eugene B. Sledge’s book titled, “With the Old Breed.” I am familiar with Sledge’s book and knowing that the same people behind this new WWII series also were behind “Band of Brothers” hopefully means another American Classic.
Having made BILLIONS upon BILLIONS outsourcing, and unflinchingly catering
to the franchise-slum denial needs of history’s MOST awesomely genocidal regime
—-ACROSS the Pacific —Hollywood continues to offer ITSELF moral cover in the form of ad nauseum,
anachronistic PC WWII retreads —even on this, the once again ‘mysteriously overlooked’
60th Anniversary of the epic and genuinely relevant —indeed, STILL unfolding
——————————————-KOREAN WAR!
