Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

I loved Band Of Brothers!!!  I have been reading about The Pacific thing since BoB first came out.  I wish they would hurry the heck up!
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.

Any idea what unit the yare focusing on? If any I would suggest these.

187th Inf "Rakkasans"

502nd Inf

503rd Inf

As for the Marines I am not sure but there was plenty of units that saw action. the 187th though has a very long history in the Pacific not only in WWII but in Korea too.

They need to do a series about the frogmen aboard the USS Mississippi.
