In a future episode they will have Momma Grizzly lead them on a search for lost canteens on Attu Island.

 

oh man, you have to warn me when this episode is about to air. My grandfather fought on Attu. Sadly you don't see many items from Attu on the market. It's great to hear they are going to do a segment about this forgotten battle.

Nothing on the network website or my local schedule for any episodes airing. Looks like I will NEVER get to see the last two episodes, which really steams me as I really wanted to see the video of Steve Preston’s tank destroyer main gun at work (having seen it in person on several occasions)…

If you get a chance look at R. Lee Ermey's Lock and Load episode about tanks, I beleive it is. They fire several guns to show the development of tank armament, from the field piece versions of the 37mm and 57mm to the 76mm out of a Hellcat. They actually shoot them at a car that has had steel plate welded to it to make it a reasonable target, too. The 76mm went through over an inch plate, through the engine block, and out the back of the car. You could see light looking through it end to end.

I saw that episode and have seen various artillery over the years. I was just looking forward to see this specific TD fire its main gun as I’m familiar with the vehicle itself, having seen it in person several times back when the breech block was still all torched up…

Gotcha, I missed it too, actually.

I was told "talks" were ongoing.

 

I don't understand why there would be a delay in picking it up - it is hands down better than most, no ... ALL of the pawn/picker type shows out there (no bias there, of course). We don't get it here 'down under' but I managed to catch a torrent of the first two episodes and I'm hooked - can someone please please PLEASE upload the last two shows ?

The National Geographic with IMA will have a show about reenacting also. It is set to air soon. Our Bridge at Remagen , 1945 in Tidioute ,Pa will play a nice part in their series. Our film crews flew in from England on a 2 day notice and blew their minds. We do what Hollywood can't do in only one shot,lol.

The Allegheny Mountains and river have the look and feel of Germany-

The 4th Annual Bridge at Remagen, 1945 in Tidioute,Pa Aug. 3-5 ,2012

I think Bob & Owen said the first order was only for 4 eps and more would depend on how well it was received by viewers.

I think y'all did a WONDERFUL job! It was not what I expected but so much better! I sure hope you get renewed for more episodes.

It was never advertized in our area. The second segment was shown 2 hours early so most everyone missed it. It has never been replayed so I don't know how they can make a decision to make more episodes. Robert

I found Episodes 1 & 2 just by searching for Combat Cash on YouTube. Unfortunately Episodes 3 & 4 are the ones I didn't see due to the scheduling change. Whey do you think these will be posted on YouTube?
