Generation Kill
Anyone else watch this series. IMHO it's the best I've seen yet.

Last one is great but I cant figure out how to get the video up. Not working.

Awards Showcase

Not that you can't discuss it again...but if you use the search engine here, you will find at least two threads discussing it when it first came out...
A lot of good perspectives...

Good series. My buddy was in Charlie company during the events shown in this series, and that is actually Rudy Reyes playing himself in the show. He's just as flamboyant in real life. Met him in DC.

I think it's one of the best depictions of that particular war and very funny at times.

We are watching the dvds at work during breaks. Keeps us "belt fed" for the evenings.

Never read the book but the series is great. Its the most accurate Hollywood representation of the Marine Corps that I've seen.

Thanks from GARRARD

I still watch it occasionally.
