    i have from the start...doesn't seem to be a 100% propaganda show...oh look we are americans we are the best!!

    as it deals with anti war ideals as well.. but it's crappier than the "soldier soldier" show of old

    I have been watching it from the start and tbh I don't think it is a propaganda show at all , if anything , maybe the opposite . The one gung ho sign up is the first guy to be injured and if shows his and his wifes story to be difficult at best .

    having said that , it ain't Band of Brothers , but then , what is ?

    Haven't seen Band Of Brothers yet, but I am a fan of Tour Of Duty, and Over There has that same war-sucks-but-we-watch-each-others-backs vibe.

    I like it. Definitely don't see it as US Propaganda like JAG.
