| I'm normally all for protecting Copyright material on the web but at the moment I can't afford to buy anymore DVDs books etc so I just spent a good hour watching it. Funny to hear a German Para Veteran with a Northern British accent describing the Kiwi tank attack up the Cavendish Road. The program all means so much more having now I've been on there myself. |
