While we're on the subject, please note that you may rely on the audience already knowing that [[War Is Hell]]. Hopefully, you will have something additional to say.
Of note in this topic is ''[[Gomer Pyle,
The roles of the air forces and navies were rarely covered, owing to the fact that TV budgets don't cover Spitfire hire. However, during the 40's hundreds of Hollywood [[Movies]] were made about the then-ongoing Second World War. The ready availability of props and mock-ups, as well as real [[Stock Footage]], made shows about pilots and sailors possible then. In several series, like ''[[Black Sheep Squadron]]'' and ''[[McHales Navy|McHale's Navy]]'', most of the action focused on antics carried out on base, to cut down on the necessary combat footage.
Note: the [[Only Fools and Horses|correct pronunciation]] is "[[British Accents|JOO-rin-na WAW-ah]]".
Contrast [[War Was Beginning]].
