One of the best TV-shows of all time. This war series is one of the most realistic, accurate, detailed and comprehensive I've ever encountered.

For the rest of the world it's a really great story, very well done, very well directed, and it's segmented enough and switches focus enough to allow everyone a taste of the different characters while still focusing on the leads. And of course the reveals the people that the actors are portraying, at the end of the miniseries, is worth all the time you devoted to it.
