To some that's called 'censorship'

Just watched the first portion and...wow...thanks Dowly, this is a damn good documentary

Top marks, the footage of the Midway battle and the hit on the Hornet is so damn crisp it's scary.

I love all the stuff Tom Hanks does for World War 2 veterans and documentaries like this. Sounds like a great guy and would love to meet him someday

Watched it. Ok stuff, especially the interviews. Not much of a Tom Hanks myself though.

Thanks for showing up OTH...our ray of sunshine

Nice find Dowly. I was not able to hear it as I'm at work. The models look very cool. I will check this out at home.

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know Tom Hanks is the resident demi-god here at SubSim. Now I know.

I have always believed that censors should be shot.
