I truly enjoyed part one and two for all the ups and downs. I was instantly captivated by this show. The character development especially, but at part three was disappointing. For action fans, they will love it, but that isn't why I am watching this very compelling show. I am here for the history and to better understand in some small way what our boys (Americans) went through and it's frustrating to read reviews that focus solely on action scenes as if that's the most important factor. This particular episode was not one of my favorites and not because of the lives lost, but because of the focus on action alone. I realize this might not be how others feel, but it's my opinion.
One reviewer actually said, "finally, this episode was good" which I respectfully disagree with because I feel there is a need to balance drama and emotion with action. Once action takes over, if you don't have the character development, then you won't have the desired impact. I am the reverse of that user indicating episode 3 the best when I feel it was the weakest so far:
