I'm trying to watch part 2 on HBO.com. I have an account, but I can't seem to find where I can view the entire episode. All I can see is the recap and the synopsis. Is anybody else running into this problem?
HBO has posted the full video of Episode One on their website for your viewing pleasure! We don't’ expect them to post all of the episodes online. This just serves as a taste of what is to come in case you’re interested in watching the rest of the Episodes in the coming weeks. If you like what you see, why not subscribe to HBO and watch the remainder of the Episodes?
Lame. Don't fight the New Media, HBO.
In their defense, all they've got is subscriptions and DVD/download sales. It's not like they're the broadcast networks with ad revenue, product placement, etc. And the production costs for this and previous awesome things they've done are astronomical. From the Earth to the Moon is 10+ years old and still looks awesome. In HD, mo' betta.
1. O3A3's ... in AUG ... SEP ... OCT 1942 ... ??? I don't think so ... OOOOOPS !!! Call the prop department ... !!!!
Has done very well for himself.
I'm not sure I'm understanding...Every account I've read about the Marines on the 'Canal mentions them being equipped with Springfields, even months after the invasion. Or is the O3A3 specifically, the wrong variant for the time period?
Roger that; the Springfields 'The Old Breed' used @ Guadalcanal were Springfield 03 & 03A1s (nearly identical, but with a full pistol grip stock on the A1s which had been used between the Wars, especially by the USMC) and possibly some Remington 03's thrown in for good measure -- but many of the Remington 03's were shipped off to Britain as the Brits were still rebuilding, having left much of their stuff at Dunkirk. They needed rifles, ASAP ... even .30-06 ones ... they were differentiated for caliber (from .303 British) by painting a rather large 1" or 2" RED ring around the forend, just in front of the front sling swivel. I've got one -- still in the cosmoline. Anyone want to clean it for me ... ???I'm not sure I'm understanding...Every account I've read about the Marines on the 'Canal mentions them being equipped with Springfields, even months after the invasion.

***edit*** .... OOOps ... I see we have a difference of opinion as to when 03A3's were issued. Not on AW's !!! Has hell frozen over ... ???
