For the Americans? No no no no no no, it was just about 3 years. Wankers. And the 101st Airbourne? It was 13 months of fighting.

Its good to watch though I will admit, but again only one mention of the British and thats to inform the 101st that Market Garden is under the command of Montgomery which is greated with groans 
Why do we put up with this sh1te from them? Can you imagine if the British made a film and be-moaned every single one of there highly regarded Generals, they would never shut up about it.
Kill em, kill em all.

Oh yes, we were under the threat of invasion in the spring of 42 weren'nt we? When the Germans were knee deep in sh1t in Russia and we had kicked the Germans out of Africa, had they never came into it us and the Russians would have still won.
They are useless.

Although did anyone see "The Longest Day" on 5 last weekend?
John Wayne managed to mention us Brits, his words were something along the lines of "Your sick of waiting? (refering to D-Day) these limeys have been waiting and suffering for 5 years so you wait a little longer"
