[StartQuote] Charlie; Glad you mentioned that, One thing I don't understand is they spend so much money of "historical reinactment" footage, what is this trend about goofy looking uniforms?? Admiral Kimmels uniform in "Pearl Harbor: the Truth" looked like it was made for a 3rd grade school play! Also, he was in Dress Whites, when his officers were in Dress Blues....at Pearl!! The would have lost 5-6 lbs of water weight, by the end of the day, in reality. In the show TheWorld Wars, Then BGEN Douglas MacArthur meets Lt.Col George Patton supposedly on the afternoon of September 12, 1918 at Essay, during the St Mihiel offensive,in France, The characters meet and the Patton guy says " I am Lt. Patton, 1st tank Division", who talks like that to a General? What happened to "Good Afternoon, Sir"? Not to mention that the actor is wearing the correct rank insignia of a Lt. Col, but he says "LT". The technical advisors suck! Will; To add to your footage statement, In while showing a training pacific fleet, they show a nice underway footage of an Arleigh Burke class DDG at sea, supposedly off Hawaii!!! Take care, TED [EndQuote]
