No offence, but I don't think many here are going to be excited of our guys getting shot up and killed.

Im guessing there are plenty of people around the planet, even americans that would like to buy historical guncam footage.....even if its allied/americans beeing shot down.

Can you really disagree with that Martlet/Saburo? Nothing wrong with it either. Plenty of it around on Discovery etc without anyone thinking its wrong in any way.

Why would I disagree with that?  It has nothing to do with what I was inferring, though.

Oh, I agree with you actually as it is interesting. But being a majority here are Americans, not many here will be excited about it. Both your statement and mine above it can be true at the same time. No one likes to see their own killed.

This quote just turned me off:

Head to head approach with B-24. Fast rate of closure with hits at or just above cockpit. B-24 is part of formation dropping bombs. B-24 is struck while bombs are seen being released.

Just imagined the pilot and copilot being practically torn up with 20mm's.
I'll pass on that DVD.

Does anyone else see the irony between Saburos comments and the name he uses?

Sakai shot down plenty of Americans.

He did that out of duty. Perhaps you might want to look into his attitude about killing after the war.

I know Sakai's attitude on the subject.

As you put it, he was doing his duty.  What do you suppose the Germans attacking the bombers were doing?

Their duty as well. Does not mean that one has to "like" the idea of their own being killed. We didn't ask for that war, it was forced on us. We didn't ask for the Germans to invade and try to take over all of Europe, then the rest of the world. We didn't ask for the Japanese to attack us at Pearl Harbor. The Axis Govt's brought this unto themselves by the very nature of their attacks that pretty much is credited with starting WWII.
Having said that, I don't "like" that the innocent civillians @
Dresden, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, etc., etc. getting killed.

BTW I am not infirring that anyone here "likes" the killing. Just clarifying my position since it appears it is not clear to you.
