I think that would interest some A&AM players here...

The complete first season of the RAT PATROL is out.
It was my favorite show as a kid! (yes. I admit it: I'm an old fart.)
It's about a commando of 4 fighting the germans by themself (with the help of two MG equipped jeeps) in the north african desert.

It's not historically accurate, but they were some well written episodes.
Heck! Just seeing the patrol's jeep fly over sand dunes is awesome!
And the Rat PAtrol's jeeps are not the puny transport-only 1/1 unit we got in A&AM. Their MG is not just for show!

Was their jeep mounted MG a .30 cal or a .50 cal?

That show owned. Not as much as the A-Team, or MASH... But still great.

That was an awesome show! I am going to have to buy a copy next time I got on one of my DVD buying trips...

Combat has been out for a while, 16 episodes per four disc set with some nice extras.
Now they need to release "Garrison's Guerilllas" which I think only ran about one season when I was a kid.
