Sky Movies HD are currently airing the HBO TV mini-series, The Pacific every Monday night. If you’ve seen Band of Brothers but not seen anything from The Pacific yet, they’re you’re very much missing out. The Pacific looks at the US Marines journey across The Pacific as they fight the Second World War against the Japanese. The series is based around two of the characters memoirs With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa by Eugene Sledge and Helmet for My Pillow by Robert Leckie.
Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks have produced this amazing series and every week I’m gripped as I watch the reality of war before my eyes.
Those lovely people at Sky Movies HD have sent us this new clip from tonight’s episode 7 entitled ”Never Lay Down When You Can Sleep’. I’ve been lucky enough to see this episode already and for me, it was the most emotional and disturbing episode in the series so far. Hopefully most of us will never get to understand what these men had to endure to make the world a free and better place but this series really does do it’s best to make the whole experience as real as possible.
I’ve embedded the clip below and you can watch the episode in full, tonight on Sky Movies HD at 9pm.
