Default A bridge too far - 08-23-2002, 12:39 PM

...is on History Channel Canada tomorrow at 9et I believe. I don't know about History Channel USA, you might want to check.

A bridge too far is a great movie. I ahev it on DVD, so I probably won't watch it, but for anyone who hasn't seen it, watch it. If your the least bit interested in WWII you'll enjoy this movie.

Thanks for the heads up. I caught the end of it last week, but I don't remember what channel it was on. I'll check the listings. Thanks again.

I forgot to mention that while I was watching it I was playing on the aa.com server on the map that looks just like the bridge they were attacking. Kinda cool.
