A question to the group.
Is the History channel distorting the facts?
I have noticed in recent weeks a number of totally incorrect comments .eg
Americans landing in Rabaul during WW2,(its Rab owl by the way not Rab

all)


Never heard that, is certainly an error


The shooting down of Yamamoto's aircraft was an assassination..



That's pretty much what it was.


B17's being used during the day in Europe as they were precision bombers
not carpet bombers as the RAF were ?



US raids on Berlin, RAF raids on Berlin - what's the difference?



They are a few of very many I can recall.



Personally I have bigger problem with the way the market
their shows than the content. "The mystery of...", "the truth
is finally revealed", etc.
