The miniseries, based on Donald L. Miller’s "Masters Of The Air: America’s Bomber Boys Who Fought The Air War Against Nazi Germany", was originally slated to be produced by HBO as a follow up to Band of Brothers and the Pacific but was subsequently dropped. It will follow the heavy bombers of the 8th Air Force in their campaign against Nazi Germany.
Can't wait.
