Overview
The Pacific is an epic ten-part miniseries. The Pacific tracks the intertwined real-life stories of three U.S. Marines – Robert Leckie, John Basilone, and Eugene Sledge – across the vast canvas of the Pacific Theater during World War II. The miniseries follows these men and their fellow Marines from their first battle with the Japanese on Guadalcanal, through the rain forests of Cape Gloucester and the strongholds of Peleliu, across the bloody sands of Iwo Jima and through the horror of Okinawa, and finally to their triumphant but uneasy return home after V-J Day.

Guys, don't think that the USSR single-handedly defeated Hitler and his allies, we also had allies, and they made a significant contribution to this event. And to throw such accusations that someone there lifted his ass half a centimeter from the chair is very stupid.
As for the plot, it was not originally envisaged in the series as such. The series is based on the memoirs of veterans of those events who were clearly not virtuoso writers, they simply dictated or described themselves what they witnessed. She's like that in real life, she doesn't pull off a romance in most cases.
Well, the main question. The modern American paradigm is such that the merits of the USSR (and Russia, respectively) in WW2 are greatly downplayed, while their own merits, on the contrary, are exaggerated. Well, let's take an example from them, let's take the numbers from the ceiling (3% participation, what sounds bad?) and engage in the same masturbation. Let's have a competition who's going to turn who around. Or who will pour more shit on whom. It will turn out to be a lot of fun, I have no doubt that with this approach, a hundred years later, the main characters of World War II will be Honduras and the Ivory Coast, because no one knew about their participation in the war and they forgot to shit.
I don't know why, but this episode has especially sunk into my soul. There are quite a few emotional scenes.
Eugene is one of the clearest examples of how war fundamentally changes all people, and the moment with the dying Japanese woman brought a sincere tear.
By the way, it was very nice to see Noel Fisher, albeit in such a small role.
in general, I want to say in advance: the series deserves 10 out of 10, despite the fact that I'm not used to watching something of this genre.
