New Nuremberg movie--previous one was also very good--that one based on book by Joseph Persico--

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg_(2025_film)
If this one (book) is too expensive right now, you can start by reading a used copy of the Persico book--the movie stared Alec Baldwin.
As far as I can tell from the trailer of the new movie--Dr. Kelley as played and cast with Rami Malek, looks more like author el-Hai than like the real Dr.Kelley who was the average cheerful young white American--
Nevertheless, Malek does an excellent job, his eyes the most amazing.
A fat and portly,old Russell Crowe plays Herman Goering.
For the conclusions Kelly reached, watch the book talk by author El-Hai. --

I was just wondering how it must have felt for Aung Zeya (later King Alaunghpaya) as a boy growning up in the Kabaw Valley to experience a Manipuri raid and I found this.

It's all there, except the sounds, the mud, the dirt, the screams, the rapes--the fear, the tears, common to war. https://www.youtube.c...
