History Ch. documentary on Vietnam War tonight @ 6PM
The series started last night. They are repeating the first couple episodes tonight and then continuing on.

The 6pm show has eye witness and film accounts of Rolling Thunder (Mel Gibson movie).

Great footage and stories.

Is it really necessary to abbreviate the word "channel?" I realize that's kind of nitpicky, but for serious.

I think the point is the channel is an HD channel, so you are watching old footage that has been cleaned up a bit on an HD quality feed.

They don't claim anywhere I have seen that the actual footage is in HD but I imagine it is "high definition" compared to how it was viewed before.

Just like the WWII in HD series.

I have to say there is some pretty amazing stuff on there. Much more vivid video than anything I had watched previously.

yeah, some of the stats from Hill 875 were crazy.

Another about how they had planned to use the new air mobility command to drop in like 800 guys over the course of a few hourse, but then after they had dropped off like 200 dudes, the LZ was ambushed and they couldn't bring any more guys in for another day or so. and they were outnumbered something crazy like 8 to 1. I think it was part of Rolling Thunder if I'm remembering correctly.

and they flashed a stat that said something like the typical WWII vet saw probalby a total of 10 days of combat in a year; and the average Vietnam vet saw close to 240 days in a year.

I can't imagine.

I know. It's just a pet peeve of mine. 16:9 isn't automatically HD.

I could watch those Vietnam and WWII series all day.

the Vietnam series is very eye opening for me. If I remember correctly, I don't think it was ever even covered in any of my HS classes. Or, if it was, it was so minimal I don't remember it.
