This series is just a glimps of what our greatest generation went through to help save the world from tyranny. I really appreciate the empathy and respect you are showing them, young lady. Great reaction to an epic series.
Of all the people that have reacted to THE PACIFIC you have done the best. You truly empathize with each Mariñe and their circumstances but you are very knowledgeable about the war in general. You constantly strive to add to your knowledge, which I find impressive. Your reaction to the Skipper's death is so genuine. You are a beautiful and remarkable young lady.😊❤
Fantastic reaction. This show is very visceral and you took it incredibly seriously.
Also for context the reason Gunny broke, is that LT. Hillbilly Jones was his responsibility for keeping alive, as his squad was paired with Jones company and Jones was just promoted to officer. So he felt he failed, by letting Jones die. Very tragic
As much as i watched Band of Brothers (and I've watched it many times, including in discussion groups), i could not handle watching the full series The Pacific more than a couple of times. It shakes me to my core. This episode, particularly.
If you notice, there’s a shot in this episode with Navy and Marine Corsair airplanes bombing the hills. They still have their wheels down when flying. That’s because the runway was so close to the place they were bombing they literally didn’t have time to retract and deploy their gear so they just left it down. They would do hundreds of bombing missions a day, one after the other for weeks on end and it still didn’t flush the Japanese out
Wow, I didn’t know that, I’ll look it up!!!
First time napalm was used in war, now it's illegal.
Aria, after you have finished "The Pacific," there is a two-part theatrical movie series from actor/director Clint Eastwood. The first is "Flags Of Our Fathers" and the second part is "Letters From Iwo Jima." They portray the pivotal battle of Iwo Jima from the U.S./Allied and Japanese perspectives, and the movie series was respectful of both points of view. Kind of like the powerful German film "Das Boot" about the reluctant German submarine fighters of WW2. Though, definitely take some breaks because it is all heavy material.
Thank you, Miss C
Imperial Japan's military training was aimed at 2 things. Soldiers were trained to be cruel and to die. Psychological studies of their training pointed this out.
No need to waste money on Psychological studies, one only needed to review their training manual.
I'm really enjoying watching these reactions from you. You seem very mentally sharp compared to alot of reactors out there and pick up on shit easily.
You can't dwell on any of it. A lesson to take with you out of this.
Dang you blew over the bunker scene like it wasn’t important

Hello Aria
Hello:)
During the WWII, the dehumanization and hate of Japanese was so strong that it became a common practice among many from the US military to collect their skulls and other body parts as trophies.
Two pictures from WWII come to mind, one is of a American solider offering a lit cigarette to a Japanese skull, the other, a girl writing a letter to her solider boyfriend fighting in the Pacific, all the while seated at a desk looking down on a Japanese skull that he had shipped to her.
You sure paint a one sided picture. You fail to mention the absolute savagery of the IJA towards POWs and civilians. I guess they don't count in your book. Disgusting.
I remember a film of a Marine officer briefing his troops before a landing. He says something like : "If you have to run any risk to get a prisoner... don't get him". I don't know how often it happened, but certainly some Japanese did pretend to surrender so that they could kill more Americans. From the soldier's POV, the safest and easiest thing was to just shoot them before they got the chance.
@@RichardFay Early in the war our troops had no idea how vicious a fighter the Japanese were. That was puzzling considering Movietone news covered their Nanking massacre starting in 1939?
Marines learned real fast, within days of invading Guadalcanal the Goettge patrol massacre happened. That alone, smashed the myth of a Japanese solider willing to surrender.
One thing Sledge is quoted as saying is that it wasn't so much the intensity as it was the duration that was difficult to endure. I think like with _Private Ryan_ the series takes liberties with hyper-realism, how guys look when they get hit or the visual intensity of some of the fire fights and sieges... because it's more difficult to condense and keep engaging something like the _duration_ of the conditions. Or seeing people around you dying, even if it's just them falling over from a distant * pop * without movie theatrics or low angles or squishy impact sounds and squibs and swelling music. The psychology of being in a situation where you're not sure if the worst will happen to you, if you'll go back alive or dead in one piece, if you or those around you will even be found or remembered, we see it in the character's reactions... but it's hard to have that point hit home without the visually "slick" gritty impact scenes and presentation to sell it. That sort of despair can set in just from deprivation, waiting, neglect, your own mind battling you. "No reward for resistance. No assistance, no applause."
Besides some raw WWII footage showing guys in this very campaign going through shell shock right after a battle, a few scenes from _Hamburger Hill_ probably come close to presenting that feeling.
What was really not covered or talked about in polite society soon after WWII, were the suicides and alcoholism that happened to many of the Greatest Generation.
@@deependz3231 Oh cut the crap. They even made an Academy Award winning film about the trauma and post war problems they faced, The Best Years of Our Lives.
@@catherinelw9365 There were no suicide's, no alcoholism in Best Years of Our Lives, the only thing touched upon in that movie was one guy was handicapped, and another found it difficult to adjust back into post war society.
It's a well known fact that after the war, American society as a whole, wanted to forget all about the conflict, put it in the rear view mirror and get on with their lives. There weren't any programs to help veterans, that fact alone is proof society refused to acknowledge the veteran struggle, because a person that admitted he was struggling would be viewed as weak, that's just the way it was back then.
You can say cut the crap all you want, just shows your ignorance of history.
@@deependz3231 There WAS alcoholism. Al, who served as an NCO in the Army. And it's false again, that there were no programs to help veterans. Ever hear of the GI Bill? That was even mentioned in The Best Years. I think you need to pick up a real history book because it's clear you never read one. Also, there were programs to help returning servicemen - art therapy for one. My employer's father was an artist who served in the Navy during WWII, and he was offered an assignment to run an art therapy clinic in California for returning sailors going through PTSD.
Hmm, getting shorter...wonder why!!??
9:07 That guy is THÉ spine of a company (waterboys or not, 'muricans) aka Worse than losing stars!
I don't even know what that all meant. Incoherent.
