100th BG

Don't know if this has been posted up in the past but a fascinating 45 mins of home movie. No sound.

Splendid. I hear the 100th are going to feature in the new Spielberg TV series (air war version of Band of Brothers).

Is Spielberg going to give us facts, or the US version ?

Apparently it will be based on a book called Masters of the Air by Donald L Miller: I've know idea how 'factual' it is, but at least it's Americans dealing with an American subject, unlike the Enigma machine capture in that film a few years back.
