World War II: The Pacific Islands

[Edward Tinker]

I grew up watching the series World at War by the BBC (I believe) they were fascinating to me seeing the ship battles, then land battles.

We inundated our son with so much history that he likes it, but not as much as me

Me too; I still have the set of VHS tapes, The World at War-narrated by Walter Cronkite.

Same here, when I was young they used to broadcast many documentaries about WWI and WWII, then I was lucky enough to receive first hand info both from one of my grandfathers who fought against the Austrians during the WWI, and from my dad that was sent to Southern France during the WWII and after the armistice of September 8, 1943 joined the Partisans.
