I got to watch 2 hours last night. It is very good. The narration is great with the mix of the actual person who experienced the events. Last night the showing of Saipan and taking it from the Japanese was excellent. It is astonishing that close to 1000 civilians jumped to their death instead of giving up to the Americans. The Japanese really ingrained into these folks that Americans will do all manners of atrocities to them if caught.
