Comments on: The War: Some Reflections http://www.dennyburk.com/the-war-some-reflections/ A commentary on theology, politics, and culture Sat, 11 Feb 2012 07:44:09 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Don http://www.dennyburk.com/the-war-some-reflections/#comment-17559 Don Wed, 03 Oct 2007 19:37:51 +0000 http://www.dennyburk.com/?p=894#comment-17559 Denny, This was not just a TV series. It was an experience... I sent out a E-mail to everyone I knew and the feedback each day was awesome..I had read the books written by Sledge {USMC} and knew most of the facts. But the way it was laid out you could feel the emotion of the whole USA pulling for the boys and dying a little bit with them.. I salute Ken Burns and his whole staff. My dad a USMC fighter pilot, and 2 uncles USMC who fought at Guadacannal, and Dave who lost both legs at Iwo Jima; the series made me think of them, and respect them even more.

I own his docs on baseball and the Civil War. They are both as good as it gets. I keep hoping that he will add a chapter to his baseball doc covering the last couple decades. Ken Burns is tops.
