Timely telling

I am a second generation American with two uncles, and my father serving in WWII. One of my uncles never spoke about his experiences; the other one freely spoke of it. I found this tale so timely given our current climate of defining who is an American and who is not. Democracy and political freedom is what WWII warriors fought to preserve. It’s incredibly ironic that all of this coming into question now. These tellings need to remind us all of the importance of everyone’s sacrifice during WWII and every conflict since! Thank you for doing this drama.
Love this show!
