Band of Brothers vs The Pacific
This is not a debate of which series was better.
well no shite. One was one of the best things on TV.... ever..... and one was a forgettable series outside of a few story lines.

I recently rewatched both and I’m trying to decide who had a harder war front. Easy company jumped in to Normandy and was surrounded from the beginning. They also faced freezing temperatures in Bastogne. Germans at times had better equipment. The Marines in the Pacific face hot temps and no water at times. They fought in unforgiving terrain. They also faced an enemy that was not willing to surrender. Had it not been for the A-bomb the nips may not have surrendered and many more lives would have been lost. So who had it worse?
thats a very very very tough question.

Yeah, the only part of the Pacific I enjoyed was Leckie's.

I don’t really think so

Only one forex made us think about using the A bomb. The 1st Marines faced absolute hell
When the marines are scared to invade somewhere, that’s a place I don’t want to be
