HBO will be showing a mini series titled "The Pacific" starting next month. It is by the same group than produced "Band of Brothers". It traces several soldiers through their service time in the Pacific Theater. I don't have HBO, but look forward to seeing it on DVD
I have a friend in Australia (where the series was filmed) that has been telling me this series should be premiering sometime soon but didn't know exactly when, so this is great news. I don't have HBO either, so I will have to wait for it on DVD also, but that shouldn't be too far down the road. Watch the popularity (and price) of USMC items soar on ebay after this, just like 101rst Airborne items did after Band of Brothers.
