The Pacific: Season 1

@s191880: People like you have fun. They won't figure out the issue, but they're going to pour shit on everyone except their own. During World War II, there were three theaters of war in different parts of the world, and countries (states) took almost equal part in all these territories. While the United States was at war with the Japanese, the USSR was holding back Germany. If the Japanese (for a second, this is one of the Axis countries) did not have such a "distracting" factor as the United States, then where would they press with all their might? Of course, to the Far East! Where, again, China helped us.
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.

John's wife Lena M. Basilon died on June 11, 1999 at the age of 86 and was buried at Riverside National Cemetery. The obituary noted that she never married after her husband's death.

The most magnificent series, left behind a lot of emotions and impressions

@s191880: soldiers are extras, actually, always, in any war. And they are always children of their country and their time. It would be strange if they behaved like defenders of Stalingrad or heroes of Star Wars, as for me the series is good because they are typical Americans of their time. Unpleasant ones - well, they are not gingerbread to please everyone.
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.

Yeah, even though I have one more episode left to watch, I want to say that the series flew by pretty quickly.
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.
