Very true since they used footage from 41 all the way up to the bulge! Then for the next one on the italian front they had Rommal commanding the northern haft of Italy??:confused:

Well.... Rommel was in command in northern Italy at the time of the Sicily invasion. ;) He just wasn't allowed to step into the country after the Italian surrender.

The History Channel in general (and Arthur Kent in particular), seems to have an agenda that is not dedicated to accuracy. Like all too many textbooks used in our schools, the History Channel does not always give us the facts - or slants the reports. Remember the phrase from Orwell's 1984: "Who controls the past, controls the future."
