You are totally correct. I watched the whole series on HBO .It was riveting. It follows the men from the landing in France on D-Day through the Battle of the Bulge where almost 185,000 people died, through Germany and the horrors of the Camps to capturing Hitler's mountain hideaway. At the beginning and end of each episode there are brief interviews with the actual men of the 101. Riveting viewing. link to the Bulge http://www.mm.com/user/jpk/battle.htm
