Marines of course. They were fighting the Japanese, all code of bushido, never give up, coming out of tunnels like Viet Cong.

The Nazis couldn't compare.

Band of Brothers was a far better show

But honestly the two shows highlighted the differences in the two theaters

BOB showed the side of war between two somewhat civil forces. It showed the courage of young men and the bonds formed between those willing to die for each other, and the memories and stories between them that will last a lifetime



The pacific showed the ultimate hell war could be. Dirty, sick, marines fighting an enemy almost not human. It showed how there is no fond memory or lesson to take from hell like that. One could only hope to forget it

No question the pacific was the worse side of the war. BOB even highlighted how Easy company wanted no part of going to Japan
