The Paratrooper's Hymn and Dunkirk

#1 Post by Spock » Fri Apr 06, 2018 11:02 pm

Just listening to a bunch of songs on YouTube and the Paratrooper's Hymn came up.

Remembering this WW2 song sang by paratroopers.

What a frickin' insult the movie Dunkirk was to the WW2 guys.

You've mentioned that here before. Have you read any articles where the actual veterans said that? I searched a bit and found only articles where the veterans said the film was realistic and brought back memories of the friends they lost.
