It's only three episodes in, but Masters of the Air is phenomenal.
My grandfather flew 29 missions in a flying fortress. He won a distinguished flying cross and several other medals. He would never talk about the war, though, except when he was drunk, and during those times, he just cried all the time. If things were 1/10 as petrifying as the show makes them seem, I don't know how anybody could survive and live a normal human existence.
