Somewhat related but finished Band of Brothers on Hulu recently(amazing as ever) and now on the Pacific, which is excellent, especially if ever read Sledge's memoir "With the Old Breed".

I know there is a forthcoming series about 8th Air Force, but really do wish Hanks and Spielberg could get passion for a WW II pacific sub series with the authenticity and quality of BOB and The Pacific. I mean, Greyhound was excellent, except for few things...namely uboat commander taunting on radio, subs surfacing in daylight to fight it out. Imagine a series along the lines of BOB and The Pacific, but focused on WW II sub warfare in the Pacific, with O Kane, Fluckey etc. books as source material.
