Worth a watch just to see and hear the views of the people who actually took part rather than pontificated after the event. Respect to them all.

Some of the film clips were inappropriate and poorly chosen but general public would not have noticed and why should they after all. A little more coverage of the memorial unveiling would have been a nice touch.

A little too much attention by both ITV and the BBC over the last few days with regard to Dresden - that operation has to be seen in the overall context of the bombing campaign by the RAF and USAAF and not in isolation. Some commentators need to pay a visit to the old Coventry Catherdral before spouting forth imho.
