Generation Kill on HBO

[utvolpj]

Anyone else watching it? Kinda like a Band of Brothers for the Iraq war. I think it's good so far and pretty funny at times. My friend (who did 2 tours in Iraq) laughs at many of the parts when watching and says it's kinda 50/50 from his exp.

Sundays at 9pm. There are 7 parts to the series. I know it's on HBO On-demand and they are showing the first 3 parts Tuesday night (I think)

Watched the first episode last night. Interesting show. If even half of that stuff is true, it's amazing how we (the US) decided to enter the country with half assed vehicles and weapons.

Haven't seen it yet.

From my talks with friends, experience in Iraq various from unit to unit and depends on what job you're doing.

What is the premise? Is it only infantry or do they follow the wide eyed Airmen that are thrown on convoy duty?

 

[chavisut]

its the Marine Recon IIRC

I got this for christmas and it's great.

Seven episodes, a manual for all of the military phrases and acronyms, making of featurette, commentaries and such.
