I really like that this show is 'documenting' a group of guys who are highly skilled, highly motivated, and very determined. Seeing how a 'finely tuned Ferrari' adapts to a demolition derby.
Seeing how distractions and situations are handled by these guys is a window we don't get in the more mainstream 'poor Jimmy from Mississippi, dropped into hell' portrayal of battle.
Very interesting to see Fick, who got effed over when he passed the ROE to his command with a bad result, suck it up and realize that morale takes precedence over his own ego and arguably go overboard to quash any naysaying of command.
