The Military Channel is probably where it would land up:

Two episodes of The World At War (first two IIRC)
Then 'D-Day: The Lost Evidence"
Then 'Hell's Battlefield' D-Day Omaha Beach
Then 'Britain at War - D-Day'
Then 'Slaughter at Omaha Beach'

So, not a bad selection, as they go. :yep:

I watched the 2nd and 3rd episodes of Band of Brothers. :yep:

Don't see the problem. Sure, D-Day was important and all, but are you really saying every single June 6th should be dedicated to it? Should we do this with the other large-scale events throughout history, too? Because then pretty much every single day of the 365(1/4) days of the year would have to be a "_________ Day" devoted to some event or another.

How, exactly, is it "one of the most important events in the history of man"? The landings were the inevitable results of the superior economic and military power of the Allies. It brought the war into its final stages, but it's not as if it's a turning point (like Stalingrad or Midway).

I can think of many, many, many more important events than a single battle in a single war against one of Earth's countless tyrants.

The history channel cannot be bothered with history there too busy 'entertaining'.

They really need to change the channels name.

List of show ideas the History Channel could show on June 6 NOT related to D Day...

Many large battles on that list... :hmmm:

Years ago I was a History Channel junky. Now there's hardly anything to it but crappy reality shows and Doomsday documentaries.
