I have an honest love for historical movies, and I think I’ve said this before but I’m constantly looking forward to being immersed in one movie or series or the other when I can find good ones. There’s one I’m currently seeing, but I’ve barely had the time, so I’m only two episodes in. Anyway, I will be talking about another one I had the pleasure of seeing last week. The Six Triple Eight (2024) This war American d…More

Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've been here, I was able to take a couple of hours to watch a movie I had downloaded on my tablet to watch when I had no electricity. It is Six Triple Eight, a touching movie, plagued by many clichés. And when I say a lot of clichés, there came a time when I squinted at the absurd things I was seeing. I realized early on that, despite being a film about a regiment of black w…More

Today I would like to talk to you about the movie Six Triple Eight which I think is one of the movies that anyone interested in history and wars should watch As I mentioned before I really love movies that shed light on neglected true stories and this is exactly what this movie does. The story revolves around the Central Postal Directory Battalion which was the first American battalion composed entirely of black wom…More

The Six Triple Eight, a 2024 American movie based on the article "Fighting a Two-Front War" by Kevin M. Hymel. Is about an all black women battalion in world war II who were given a challenge to give hope to the soldiers and their family during world war II and they delivered.

If not for certain films, I might never have learned about some interesting, informative, and inspiring parts of history. The Six Triple Eight, in a way, happened to be a little different. The Six Triple Eight depicts a true life story of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, an all-Black battalion of the United States Women's Army Corps, and the monumental role they played for the US Army during World War…More
Source Stimulating film based on real events that has a lot of praise for the Army (or at least part of it) of the United States of America, but it is worthwhile for its unquestionable merits. It is very entertaining, touching at times, emotionally charged and interesting throughout. There is no lack of sappy scenes, but they are acceptable for being inserted in a hard, moving, real story that took place in E…More

Imagine not hearing from your military dad or son fighting in world war II because there’s nobody to deliver their mails. And two-three years later they find 17 million pieces of mails stored and need to be delivered in 180 days. How possible? I’m not even sure a magician can do that not to talk of only 855 women. When I did the maths, it meant each woman had to deliver 19,888 mails in those 180 days. Still not poss…More
