Good visually except for the wrong equipment and some details. But there are also some smaller issues with the actual history in this series. Done for TV for those who do not study history as a focus, major or profession. But for basic entertainment purposes it's ok

I love this show so much I purchased it on 3 different platforms. Excellent representation of motivation of our main characters. I hope they make more history shows like this!
