I have a great respect for ALL the soldier that participated in WW2, friends and foe. Wether thier tactics were right or wrong.

Lets actually contribute to this post and stop the stupid US bashing, because if truth be told, we don't give a **** about what you think of us, and there isn't much you can do to change that. So have a nice warm cup of stf*

Yes what a lovely way to even things out man. "That not fair, you guys are mean, I DONT GIVE A FU*K WHAT YOU THINK! I'm also a soldier so whatever you say thats critical of my nation is personallyoffensive no matter how valid it is. Thank you for being so understanding."

Why is it that you're a soldier matters? And if you dont care what "we" think about you why do you care if we are critical of the US? And talking about how the Germans are portrayed on modern TV and Movies in the US is part of the thread's subject. If that means being critical of your nation it isn't unsubstantiated "bashing". It's called critical analysis. The US isn't perfect. Nor is Britain or Germany. Hell Canada (my home btw) is definately suspect about alot of stuff. I'm a proud Canadian but I also know we made Napalm and Agent Orange for the US during Vietnam and are thus by connection responsible for alot of death and suffering. And don't try and say that we're disrespecting the soldiers of the war by being critical of what they did or did not do. That's just called history, you know talking about what happened and who dunnit. Plus if you are interested in respecting the memories of all the soldiers regardless of nationality then the way the Germans are portrayed in your country and others ought to be right up your alley. SO what I'm saying is don't accuse us of anything. It just sounds petty. And if anything reinforces the stereotype of arrogant and ignorant Americans.

So here's my personal addition to this thread. I believe it was Winston Churchill who said during WW2 that "I intend to write history".
