Oh, man, who would want to pay money to listen to a bunch of old farts reminisce about something that happened more than sixty years ago?

Move the following weekend and take your daughter with you. How many more chances will she get to meet real live heros from our greatest generation?

Their choice of that name has always irritated me. No way a bunch of Euro nancy boys should have the right to compare themselves to these giants among men.

Point taken but those guys picked that name because of the WW2 TV series, not because of Shakespeare's play.
