Neat. I'll need to check it out. If I remember correctly, The Great War channel was run by a production company out of Berlin.

Cool OP

My dad was in the NY ANG and was slated to deploy to Korea but it was decided to keep his unit back in case they were needed for riot control.

His buddies told him that he would be the first to be killed because he was a machine gunner.

He told me that story a few years back. I never knew that he was a machine gunner and thought that was cool as that was my son’s MOS in the Corps.

He finished his military service in the USAF. He passed on 4/20/2019
