WWII DOCUMENTARIES ON DVD

[Walt's Daughter]

Daddy:

 

Lee and I just finished watching GENERAL Zhukov. Excellent. Had only caught a part of it on the History Channel previously, so was glad to watch it in its entirety. Thanks, enjoyed it immensely.

 

Several things that really came across in the documentary:

• 1: He was a damn brilliant general
• 2. The soviets had the power, the armament and the soldiers to kick some butt
• 3. Stalin was a pompous jealous fool, who could have ruined the attack because he couldn't put those feelings aside
• 4. The fire power in April across the Oder those first few days was astonishing. Over a million rounds in total!
• 5. Even though Stalin tried to take the limelight away from him, in the long run after the SOB was dead, Stalin is remembered as a villain and murderer and guess who lives on in glory? General Zhukov

Well off to eat dinner. Made stuffed manicotti shells and the smell eminating from the kitchen is driving me nuts. Gotta go...
