Thanks to the historical aspect, you can basically see the technological progress in action.
I hadn't considered this, but it makes obvious sense. This is reason enough for me to try to get out of my comfort zone. Do you have a favorite tv war drama?

Band of Brothers and The Pacific haha. They are both short since they are miniseries from HBO with just 10 episodes à 1-2 hours each.
I don't know which one I like more. The Pacific is imo more "in your face" with multiple beach landings and the Japanese which rather blow themselves (and US medics trying to help them) up than to surrender. But BoB has more variety since it follows more different characters. For example, in BoB, one episode is about a medic during the Siege of Bastogne. The Pacific only has three main characters iirc.
I might also be biased towards BoB since it's a special feeling that the locations are kind of close to where I live.
If I had to pick, I would say start with BoB.
I also think I didn't watch any other tv war drama. I don't think there are many. Movies are usually too short for good character development.
