I</a> did like the V and H episode on Hong Kong. The one on Bomber Command I really didn‘t know what to make of it is not really my area of interest. The shows were professionally put together. The Normandy episode I thought was poorly done for a number of reasons. I don‘t know if that debate has gone on here or not so I won‘t bring it up again unless someone wants to discuss it further. I just shudder to think that instead of reading C.P. Stacey, Bill McAndrew, Terry Copp, Jack Granatstein, Desmond Morton or the like, that people might take the V and H as their only source of info on Canadian participation in Normandy.
What did you think of the show - and the controversy?
