Haven't had a chance to watch it (hopefully tonight) - but number 5 was pretty awesome so I was hoping 6 was good

I havent had a chance to see any of them yet ( no HBO ) Is it worth the wait for them to come on TV, or should i go buy the DVDs?  Opinions?

Peleliu blows Omaha away. The only thing that made SPR more shocking was the fact that no one had ever shown anything like it in a movie before.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

After the break in the action, Rosie grabbed my arm and said relax. I was sitting on the edge of my seat and my heart was racing a mile a minute.

Devastating. Very Graphic. Hard to watch.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

This has been a sort of "personal experience" for me.   All of my grandpa's stories of Guam and Okinawa are finally shown and it simply amazes me what he endured for 3 years as a Marine.   IMO, this is better than BoB and I'll be getting it on DVD to pass down the same stories to my son when he's older.

My wife's Grandfather was 1st Marines. We watched last night and during the airfield crossing all she could say was "Oh my God, Oh my God". I could see in her face as she finally got it, the realization that she has a real life hero within her family.

Wow, that episode was certainly more intense than any of the BOB series...I'm not sure what was harder to watch, the poor guy counting nonexistent japs or the one who went crazy during the night
