I tried watching this series but found it incredibly annoying, after a while it just appeared to be "The Greatest American Wins of WW2", if you were to base all of your historical knowledge off that series you would walk away with the impression that Sherman's were knocking out German armour at a rate of about 10 Panthers for every Sherman.

true, but that's something I see in most docus (90%)

heroes/aces are only to be found on the allied side in docus
when they change the subject to the 'wrong' side (or the losers) they talk about warcrimes and murders

have you seen lots of German tankaces being discussed in docus? sometimes but few...
same with the censorship, Russian veterans can easily say 'we wanted to slaughter(ed) all Germans' but a Germans veteran comments...well...is always way more moderate

There was another program based on air battles and it was the same format, mainly yanks shooting down Germans and Japanese by the bucket load and occasionally you would get a passing reference to an allied plane shot up when in reality entire allied squadrons were lost two or three times between D-Day and the end of the war.

I think it is very unfortunate that we have allowed flashy graphics to replace objectivity in history as there are people out there that believe what they are being shown is factual and when they forget how close a run thing WW2 really was then we run the risk of history repeating itself.

I was lucky enough to have had family who served through WW2 on both sides and their view was generally that the average soldier on all sides was the same, they were all just caught up in a situation doing what ever they had to do to survive so there was very little residual animosity.

One of the aspects I think that many of these documentaries over look is that in many ways the achievements of allied tankers throughout the war were carried out with the full knowledge that the vehicles they were given were no match for the vehicles they were going up against, I am not sure how enthusiastic I would be to go up against a Panther, Tiger or even PZ-IV in a Sherman and the same goes for Luftwaffe pilots late in the war when you know that the enemy has better aircraft and overwhelming numbers.
