I'm watching We Own This City. It's a miniseries about an investigation into corrupt police in Baltimore. It's an heir to The Wire: Some of the same people behind and on screen, some similar themes.
I'm almost done with Remembered Prisoners of a Forgotten War. Until reading this book, I was not aware that Korean War POWs had a bad reputation. According to so-called experts, they weren't as tough as POWs in other wars, due to being pampered and possibly domineering mothers. You can imagine how thrilled the survivors of harsh POW experiences were to hear that.
