I have a previously scheduled engagement so I will wait until it comes out in video. Ken Burns is something of a left-wing ideologue. Still, the programs are worth seeing as long as one makes allowances for his biases.
We should also not take it for granted that anyone under forty years of age knows much about WWII. Even graduates of our “elite” schools are often historically illiterate. Do you doubt what I say?

By the way, this is a major reason why the Holocaust denial idiots are sometimes taken so seriously.
