Eight bore its just been released by Netflix streaming. No doubt will be available on Disk at some point. Whole thing is worthwhile particularly the interaction with Winston Churchill. Its part of Churchills history we dont read much about. True its entertainment not pure fact still worth a look. Many sporting scenes not just the one I mentioned.

Looks like my post turned to a discussion on WW II Generals. Only 69 years old I did not know any of them. But have read a lot of the Biographies and Autobiographies. If you look at it from all sides they have their positives and negatives. The Montgomery- Patton controversy was fact, inflated by the British and American press. True they had very different styles and the armies they lead were very different. However both were competent and in Montgomerys case more so than the Generals he replaced. We all know Patton not many Americans read Montgomery.

Core issue with Montgomery is most of the war he lead a poorly equipped war weary army which lead to his being very cautious.
