A new show about the US navy has captured the attention of Netflix viewers, who have been praising the “amazing” coming-of-age series and begging for a second season. Boots, which premiered on the platform earlier this month, is based on the true story inspired by former US Marine Greg Cope White's memoir The Pink Marine. ‌
