283/365

You may not know this about me, but I am a huge fan of movies about World War II. Everything in relation to the time period calls my name and so I was scrolling around online last night and I found out about this mini series called Generation War. It's three episodes following the lives of five best friends --two German soldiers, a singer, a nurse and a Jew. It's kinda amazing, to be honest. I read a few of the reviews and some people were very upset about it glossing over the concentration camps -- there are only about two mentions of them -- and the reminders that some of the German soldiers didn't exactly relate to Hitler at all. 

So, I checked out the show because of the time period but I walked away with an even larger urge to travel to Berlin... also reminded myself that sometimes people fight wars, not because they want to, but because they have to.
