Sadly, since this was made 23 years ago, there are no more Easy company vets still with us. The last one passed away a couple years ago. Rest in peace, heroes.
There are 2 videos you may want to watch: the documentary called “We Stand Alone, Together” which goes into the lives of the men and history of the Airborne. Also a “video diary” recorded by Ron Livingston (Nixon) about the boot camp training period the cast went through. All excellent!
They are going to react to We Stand Alone Together next week. The "video diary" by Ron Livingston is definitely worth watching. There are also a lot of videos out there with the Veterans and the Actors reminiscing together and separately.
@@jameskirschling7887 Great! Thanks! I was very touched by the various videos about the BOB cast having their reunions, similar to the soldiers, and talking about how the acting experience was a significant part of their lives, not just as actors, but as human beings. There also was a very moving one showing a memorial for Dick Winters, and his burial site in the US, as well as having a marker set up in Europe.
@Dej24601 I echo what you said. I'm not sure if I watched the Maj. Winters video. I'll look for it, thanks.
One of my favorite parts of the documentary is the footage from the E Co reunion. Seeing the men interact is incredible.
I agree. You should watch both!! Do a reaction for us.
I had the honor of meeting Maj. Winters at a Battle of the Bulge reenactment at Fort Indiantown Gap, not far from his farm in Ephrata, PA. I was in a cafe and Maj. Winters asked if he could join me. Of course, I knew who he was and welcomed him as we shared some good beer. I was portraying a German General Staff officer, was in full uniform, and he mentioned that he had noticed me in the tactical battle we'd held that afternoon. He said he saw me and as he followed me with his binoculars, everywhere I went, from unit to unit,"things happened". I replied that I was just a messenger for my commander and was in contact with him by radio. He said that I was doing everything "a good staff officer should be doing". I really appreciated that this actual hero thought I had done a good job.
That's an amazing story
Can you elaborate on what you mean by "things happened"?
@@american_cosmicprobably that things just got done. Officer leading his troops for a victory.
Buck Compton also played baseball with Jackie Robinson at UCLA before the war.
wow, man lived a full life.
@@richieb3356 So did the actor who played Compton as well...he was also a UCLA baseball player.
Congratulations on the completion of B.O.B.
Please continue your exploration of WW2 with the viewing of "The Pacific". I enjoyed the content.
One of my grandfathers fought through Europe with the 29th infantry division (wounded).
My other grandfather and his brother were in the 6th Marine Division and were at Okinawa. All of them lived.
Ed Shames had a cool story. He found two bottles of Cognac labeled specifically for Hitler. He took them both. He gave one to Col. Sink. The other he kept and drank at his son's bar mitzvah.
I wish they’d given us a little more Shames and Foley. Great guys!
Interesting fact. Malarkey spent more days on the line than any other member of Easy Company.
Props to you two gentlemen for learning about what our WWII vets did for all of us. Pass your knowledge to anyone that will listen so that their bravery is never forgotten!
Props to these two legends for actually not either being 100% unaware of all of this, nor some inhuman bastards who relish the death of people like ive seen before with others. AND for taking notes, yada yada. Good lads
Shifty Powers’ injuries were severe enough that he was one of the last members of Easy to get home, even though the lottery that was going to send him home was 3 months before Japan surrendered.
It’s also awful that the pistols and back pay he talks about were all stolen from him while he was recovering in the hospitals. Dude deserved better.
Great work on the series, guys. Very well done!
Winters kept that sidearm. It had never been fired. What was worse for Shifty, while he was in the hospital, he had almost 2 years pay with him. Someone stole it. George Luz was an administrator for a school district in Rhode Island, he helped so many people with their maintenance challenges I guess some thought he was a maintenance man. Good stuff, fellas!
Different occasion. Winters kept the sidearm of a major (he accepted the surrender of dozens of German officers). This occasion it was a colonel who Winters allowed to keep his sidearm.
I have watched this more times than I can count as well as the documentary. I cant watch the last bit with Winters and not cry. Talking about not being a hero, but serving with a company of heroes. ❤
They are all heroes! That scene also hit us bc you could tell how much his men meant to him😢
This episode hits me the hardest. My grandfather was an aircraft mechanic in the Army Air Corps in Europe. After the war was over, he was in a C-87 carrying troops to go home. On landing the plane bounced off the runway damaging the props and wheeled into the trees and exploded. He died of his burns 3 days later.
It's heartbreaking to think of all those that died even though the fighting had stopped. His absence in my father's life and ours is something that I have thought about a lot over the years.
I'm glad you guys got so much from this series. I really enjoyed how perceptive and attentive ya'll were to such a great and important show.
Thanks!
Thank you both for doing an outstanding job presenting this series, your genuine respect for country and the men that fought for our freedoms is evident and well represented. Please continue the good work. God bless.
We appreciate you💙 this message means a lot to us! We always try our best to hold a certain level of respect for the sacrifices of the people who sacrificed for us. Happy we were able to convey that throughout the series. Much love & god bless🙏🏾
Something that comes up in the last episode that is not fully explained is the Adjusted Service Rating Score...which is what the "points" they keep referring to is about. The Army needed a system to prioritize the people that were deployed overseas, and decide in what order folks would get to go home, since not everyone could go home at the same time. The system heavily prioritized people with children under the age of 18 to get them home as soon as possible, and focused on medals awarded and time in service overseas as other criteria.👍
You still got episode 11
The documentary is awesome!
It's definitely a must watch.
Lots of Band of Brothers stuff at the Gettysburg museum of History, I was just there a couple of weeks back and met Matthew Leitch who played Talbert. There's a statue to Winters in Ephrata. Lots of rabbit holes to go down, History Hacks did zooms with the cast during the pandemic. 5hours worth, and a symposium at the WW2 museum in New Orleans two summers ago on UA-cam 7 hours long of panels with cast, crew and family members of the guys.
I've seen this series more times than I can count. Watching your reactions and seeing how much you enjoyed it was well worth my time and I thank you for it.
We appreciate you & truly grateful that you enjoyed the reactions we put up! Much love & THANK YOU💙
I really hope you guys watch "We Stand Alone Together", the follow up documentary.
It's a must!
THIS!!!
You guys live near where Maj. Winters lived later in life in Pa...I live a couple of miles in Edison NJ, where Winters worked at Nixon Nitration Works...you have to watch now.."We Stand Along Together "...it's the Documentary where the interviews were taken from at beginning of each episode...My Dad Fought the Japanese in WWII..my brother was a Medic in Vietnam..he received the Bronze Star and Purple heart for Bravery...if it wasn't for these guys and ALL Veterans...we would all either be saluting the German or Japanese flag!... they did nothing less than save the World, and in return America only asked for enough land to bury our dead...God Bless Them and America
The series did a great job giving stories to all the main soldiers. It's easy to forget guys like John Martin and Babe. Most reactors didn't blink when Babe and Martin showed up at the end, but you guys still gave them some recognition.
It was only right that we gave everyone the respect & recognition that they deserved. During the editing, there was no way i (swizz) was gonna cut anybody out from that.
Freedom ain't free.
They have another video called, We stand alone together. It is a video of the veterans stories. Must see.
"He was speaking to everyone"....yes he was.
8:45 Say what you will about giving access to a wine cellar to a guy with a drinking problem - Winters' doing so for Nixon was probably one of the best bro moments of the 20th century.
The last surviving member of the WW2 complement of Easy Company was Bradford C. Freeman (born 1924), who was a mortarman (I believe) and who attained the rank of Private, First Class. He died on July 3, 2022, at the age of 97. And with that, the entire WW2 complement of Easy Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, has passed into history.
Gentlemen, and all the other soldiers you represented - thank you. Thank you for your service. Thank you for sharing your stories with us.
And thank you guys for your reactions, they were great.
Currahee!
I dont comment much, but I truly enjoyed your reactions to this series. I appreciate and enjoyed how genuine the 2 of you are
We appreciate you & this means a lot to us💙 much love🙏🏾
Thanks for watching fellas. This series is how I found y'all and I'm glad I did. Peace and love from a neighbor in Ohio.
We appreciate you & grateful to have had you here w/ us on this journey! Much love💙
Several of the men who are in Band of Brothers -- including Bill Guarnere and Babe Heffron -- were from Pennsylvania. Both Guarnere and Heffron were from Philadelphia (and lifetime fans of the Phillies).
A lot of Easy men were from PA. Rod Strohl, Winters, Harry Welsh, Strayer, Foley, Toye, Blythe, Lesniewski... I understand that Pennsylvania had the second largest population in the US. NY was first.
Albert Blythe was also from PA, but the actor couldn’t do the Penn accent, so they made him southern!
Enjoyed watching BoB along with you. You mentioned Hershey, PA and going to see Maj. Winters. Unfortunately he passed away in 2011. There are no more members of Easy Company alive anymore 😢
We appreciate you & happy you enjoyed our reactions💙 We figured once we realized this was made early 2000s. RIP to all of easy🙏🏾
My grandfather had 72 points but he entered the war so late that he would eventually be released simply because the war was over. He won two Bronze Stars (not sure what for) and he didn't talk about it much.
Winters would say later in his life that he could still see the face of that young soldier at the crossroads as clear as if it happened yesterday. So, yeah, that image stayed with him the rest of his life. He didn't regret shooting him because that was part of the war but he hated that it had to happen.
By the way, really enjoyed your reviews. Your appreciation of what you were watching was certainly appreciated by all of us.
Enjoyed the reaction, gents. You should watch "We Stand Alone Together", which is more of the experiences and interviews with these men.
Among the best reactions to BoB I've seen, guys, and that's saying a lot because I've watched almost every one that's here on UA-cam. I hope you move on to The Pacific. It's about the war with the Japanese and it was BRUTAL. A completely different kind of war. You guys would be great!
These men were asked to do the impossible by fighting and dying in the deadliest conflict in human history. They returned back to the United States after many years of fighting in Europe, Asia, and Africa, asked for nothing in return, and simply went back to work. Words will never do it justice to think of the heroism of these men, some as young as 15, who lied about their age just so they could serve. Its fitting that they are known by the name of 'the greatest generation'.
There's an episode 11. The full documentary "We Stand Alone Together"
In reality, Major Winters did accept the Colonel's sidearm. He related in a documentary later that he observed that the pistol had never been fired. As he said, "There was no blood on it."
Did y'all catch that only Shifty's name was in the helmet?
You are the first guys to react so intensely to Webster being lost at sea. I felt the same way. Webster narrated Episode 8 (Hagenau) so well, like a true writer. Band of Brothers author Stephen Ambrose drew a lot of information from Webster's memoir "Parachute Infantry: An American Paratrooper's Memoir of D-Day and the Fall of the Third Reich". Helluva writer.
Websters death hurt! Being lost at sea was one of the last things that we thought would happen!
Since you guys are close by: Winters died in 2011 at age 92 and was buried in Ephrata, PA. We just had remembrance day here in the Netherlands and I think it's important that we keep remembering the men that gave their lifes for our freedom
The scene with the older German soldier on the road talking about his war experiences while directing traffic with an America soldier was German Military Police. That was what that big silver badger around his neck says (it goes back to the 18th century). He was still military police and they helped the Allied occupation forces maintain order with the other German soldiers who had surrendered and were heading home. The German Military Police were kept in operational service long after the war officially ended.
You guys have really helped make my life better, youre damn good men with great personalities. Thanks for all you do and your hard work! I hope to see "we stand alone together" a "doc" of the men from Easy Company. My first time asking for a reaction, please watch "The Pacific" Its about 3 marines and there time in the Pacific War. Its done by the same guys from BOB, Hanks and Spilberg. Hope you guys are having a awesome start to your weekend! Much love and respect to you both🙏
We are so grateful to have been able to help you w/ our reactions! Building a healthy & genuine community, connecting w/ people & helping people is why we started this in the first place. We hope everything is blessed for you & yours💙 We didn’t know about We Stand Alone Together until last week so we will be reacting to it sometime this week & have it up next weekend for you guys. We will start The Pacific once we finish The Bear on Patreon so it won’t be on YT for a couple of months. Much love to you💙
I watched this series several times since it came out, but it'd been a few years. I came across your channel when you were on episode 2, and ended up watching it again with you guys. My new favorite reaction channel for sure. No screaming or fake bits; just two smart, chill, real dudes.
I'd like to see you cover Generation Kill sometime. Not as classic as BoB or The Pacific, but more relevant to "our" generations take on the great war of their lives.
We appreciate you & truly grateful to have had you here w/ us on our journey through Band of brothers💙 It means a lot to us to even be considered in your top reaction channels & we have gotten a lot of request for Generational Kill so we will definitely get to it this year🙏🏾
I've been inside the eagles Nest and inside that elevator! I HIGHLY suggest going there if you ever take a trip to Europe, it is one if the most gorgeous views I've ever seen. Obviously it's very touristy these days, but you can walk around on the hillside and everything atleast when I was there.
It's been hella fun rewatching this series with you, fellas!
I hope you wind up reacting to "The Pacific". It has a very different tone and feel, but it is absolutely worth it imo! Cheers!!
As the son of a ww2 vet, I am so glad you guys watched BoB's...... my dad's generation was Bad A$$ !! Yet were Very humble... in their words " we just had a job to do so we could get back home.."
We appreciate your dad’s service! And it was definitely a ride, we enjoyed every bit of BoB. That generation did a job a lot of us today couldn’t even imagine of doing.
If yall watch the pacific yall are going to love it. It’s a lot more psychological imo than band of brothers, and focuses on individual experiences and feelings
Sadly there are no living members of the original unit alive today. Last member passed away in 2022.
When the US Army quit using jeeps and replaced them with the Humvee, people recalled that jeeps could be deadly in accidents. Jeeps flipped over easily and had no seat belts.
An uncle let a young inexperienced soldier drive the jeep in Korea, flipped the jeep and uncle ended up in a full body cast!
Enjoyed watching with you fellas , Outstanding, thanks for sharing with us😊👍✌️🇺🇸
We appreciate you & happy you enjoyed our reactions to BOB! Much love & thank you for coming along w/ us on this experience💙
Just want to say that I'm proud of you young brothers and the knowledge you have gained watching this great series ! You give me great hope in the further development of our people through knowledge ! I appreciate that you guys get it, that you are seeing a bigger picture now. There's a great awakening happening, by in large, with the black community and this generation, that has given us older people hope that all is not lost ! Keep growing my brothers !!!✊🏾👏🏽👌🏾🫶🏾❤💯
Wow! This means a lot to us! We also agree, being able to learn, understand, put yourself in others shoes & be open minded to changing your perspective or mindset is HUGE! We appreciate you & this message truly! Much love to you & yours💙
"We Stand Alone Together" The Men of Easy Co. Where the pre- episode interviews are from & a worthy watch to finish the series.
We will be watching that next week & gonna try to have it up by the weekend at some point🙏🏾
Doesnt matter how many times I watch this show. The ending just chokes me up every time.
o7
I REALLY, REALLY enjoyed watching y'all react to this series. Thank you for your attention to detail and your authentic reaction.
We appreciate you, your support & happy you enjoyed our reactions💙 It was only right that we gave/give the series we are watching all of our attention & fully invest into them.
watch The Pacific next. you’ll see how crazy it is that Nixon and Welsh were casually talking about going to Japan and back. in reality, and invasion of mainland Japan would’ve essentially amounted to a death sentence
This was great. You guys are so thoughtful in your commentary.
💙
I second the comment that you absolutely must watch what "We Stand Alone Together". It is a 1 hour long documentary ,which includes many of the interviews we saw at the beginning of each episode , where the men describe these battles in great detail. It really puts everything into context when you hear directly from the men who were actually there fighting.
It was brilliant to have the German General give the Band of Brothers speech.
Was a great dynamic added to the show!
Spears ended up being the longest serving C.O of Easy Company.
Easy Company is the most ironic name in military history. From D-DAY all the way to Hitler's Eagle's Nest, there was nothing Easy about it. I never want things I love to end, but you want the pain to end for these Men, and the peace to begin. The German Field Marshall's speech is actually what ties the entire concept of of the series together unexpectedly. I implore you to see "We Stand Alone Together" and Ron Livingston's (Nixon) Bootcamp Diary. It makes you appreciate the series even more unbelievably. You also need to watch "The Fallen of WW2" for perspective on the scale of this tragedy. "Were you a hero in the War Grandpa? Grandpa says no, but I served in a company of heroes" Near tears every time. Currahee! ♠
Exactly what we said! We stand alone together gave a whole other perspective & importance of the show!
I really loved watching this with you both - I was also impressed with how many small details and nuanced situations that you picked up on immediately - it takes most people multiple watches to catch things you guys caught right away, including me. It's good to see people, so young and far removed from this time, show a real interest and investment in the stories of WWII vets and the sacrifices they made to defend freedom. One tip: If/when you watch The Pacific, make sure to get the version that includes the Tom Hanks' and the vets commentary before each episode - so much invaluable background and info that you don't want to miss. Bless!
We appreciate you & truly happy you enjoyed our reactions to this series. We try our best & always give our full attention to the stuff we are watching as the series/you guys deserve that from us. We love learning about history & war stuff so this was definitely up our alley. We are planning on starting The Pacific in about 2 weeks & it’ll be about 4-5 months until it hits YT due to the shows we have set to release after BOB. Much love & we will definitely watch that version!
Malarkey was supposed to be included in the baseball scenes at the end, but Scott Grimes who plays him, missed his flight to Austria for the filming, and he's said it's one of the biggest regrets in his life.
-------
I don't know if someone already wrote this here or maybe on your patreon, but here goes, about the 85 points, that's how they were earned.
1 month of military service 1 point each
1 month of military service overseas (in addition to total time in service) 1 point each
Combat award (Medal of Honor, Distinguished Service Cross, Distinguished Service Medal, Legion of Merit, Silver Star Medal, Distinguished Flying Cross, Soldier's Medal, Bronze Star Medal, Air Medal, Purple Heart) 5 points each
Having a dependent child under the age of eighteen (up to a max of 3 dependents) 12 points each
They also earned 5 points per campaign they took part in.
Egypt-Libya 11 June 1942 - 13 February 1943
Air Offensive, Europe 4 July 1942 - 5 June 1944
Algeria-French Morocco 8 - 11 November 1942
Tunisia 17 November 1942 - 13 May 1943
Sicily 9 July - 17 August 1943
Naples-Foggia 9 September 1943 - 21 January 1944
Anzio 22 January - 24 May 1944
Rome-Arno 22 January - 9 September 1944
Normandy 6 June - 24 July 1944
Northern France 25 July - 14 September 1944
Southern France 15 August - 14 September 1944
North Apennines 10 September 1944 - 4 April 1945
Rhineland 15 September 1944 - 21 March 1945
Ardennes-Alsace 16 December 1944 - 25 January 1945
Central Europe 22 March - 11 May 1945
Po Valley 5 April - 8 May 1945
As an example, a man who served for three years in the Army, including one and a half years overseas, had a child under 18, and fought in the Northern France, Ardennes-Alsace, Rhineland and Central Europe Campaigns, earning a Bronze Star Medal and two Purple Hearts would have:
36 (months in service) + 18 (months overseas) + 12 (dependent under 18) + 5 (Northern France) + 5 (Rhineland) + 5 (Ardennes-Alsace) + 5 (Central Europe) + 5 (Bronze Star Medal) + 5 (Purple Heart) + 5 (Purple Heart) =
101 points, enough to go home!
Thank you so much for the breakdown it makes much more sense now since reading through this. I know for some people it took years to get all those points and probably still didn’t hit that many points. It would be better to not even know how many points you had I would think. Constantly counting and trying to get more points to get home would feel like it would put more stress on top of what you had on hand, which was just survive the day.
Do watch the doc the Band Of Brothers team made, called 'We Stand Alone Together". You get to see the more of these interviews with the Easy veterans. You get to see B&W clips and pics. It's literally like an 11th episode. :)
Something to keep in mind for 'The Pacific' is that side of the war was completely different and more brutal than how the war was fought in Europe.
The Pacific is very heavily focused on the horrors of war and how war will effect, and eventually, break a man's soul. It is a very sobering and depressing series, but also very important to experience as it reminds us that even in the best case scenario of men surviving war without bodily harm, their souls are damaged forever.
Thanks, Guys! Loved your reactions! Loved sharing the journey with y’all! Currahee! 🇺🇸
We appreciate you & grateful that you were here w/ us for this experience! Much love💙
Been a hell of a ride! What a journey!
Definitely was an amazing experience! Happy to have had you here w/ us🙏🏾💙
Another piece of trivia, after Speirs retired from the Army as a Lt. Col., he went on to work for the CIA.
Well done guys. I Mean that, means a lot to know there are younger people with perspective. I’ve enjoyed every episode with ya. Hope you will watch, we stand alone together. Easy went through so much there was no way they couldn’t reunite almost every year since 1946 for annual reunions. It’s a great watch and I’d like to see you react to it. When it’s genuine/ real people recognize it. Whether it’s veterans telling it or guys like you reacting to it. BS don’t fly with regular honest Americans. You guys were no bullshit and I love that. “Currahee”!!
We appreciate you & this truly means a lot to us. We’ve enjoyed the company, conversations & insight that we’ve received during this series. We are planning on watching it next week & i (Swizz) am gonna get it edited for that same weekend. We truly enjoyed this & found it very sad but educational & intriguing as well. Much love & the pacific is coming soon💙🙏🏾
@@DaKidsReact thank you for the reply. Looking forward to it. So sick that major Winters lived so close to you. Good luck to you, wish you fellas much success.
2:35 After I got back from Iraq and ETS'd out I got a job at a VAMC and worked there 27 years. My army active Army time counted for four years to my minimum retirement age.
Great ride, well, well done! Thanks guys.
We appreciate you💙 Happy you enjoyed it w/ us
Pretty wild & satisfying seeing a new generation seeing & honoring these & all our veterans. God bless you, guys.
It’s a little sad to know that all of Easy Company is gone now, but how lucky we are to have things like this to help us remember their stories.
Like they said, they will live forever!
And so ends the greatest TV series of all time.
An amazing reaction to a very special series, grat job guys. You made a reference to seeing a trailer that mentioned some guys who could not join the war killing themselves. I think you may have seen the trailer for Hacksaw ridge and mistaken it for BoB. Hacksaw ridge is an amazing film and I highly recommend giving it a watch.
that last scene always makes me tear up, appreciate yous for reacting to bad of brothers ❤️
Sad but also good to see how everyone panned out!
Loved your reaction boys. TY!
We appreciate you & THANK YOU for being here w/ us💙
@@DaKidsReact Luv you guys even tho I'm Slippery Rock faithful.
Awwwwww man🤣🤣 I (Swizz) am IUP & Sheim is Lockhaven😡🤣
@@DaKidsReact I can respect IUP. Sheim, c'mon man. Lockhaven? JK 😝
I've watched a ton of reactions to this series and enjoyed the heck out of you both sharing your reaction, well done!
We appreciate you & having you here w/ us💙 The pacific is going to come soon🔥
Thank you for watching this series through. History isn't taught in school anymore. This series portrayed a group of men in this conflict. There are so many other stories - both black and white for WW2. But the bottom line is the fight was for the right to live free. Not just America but for others.
We appreciate you & it was only right that we did this series. We both love history & learning so this was great to experience together w/ each other & also w/ you all! You got to learn about the past to not repeat it🙏🏾
( I am a military veteran) GREAT Job, Bros !!
WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE! Much love & appreciate you & your support💙
This has been a good series, and I'm glad I kept up with it. I like y'all's style. Keep doing what you're doing.
Had no clue what we would be getting into going into this blind! So happy we got to experience this & capture it w/ you all! Much love💙
Awesome rewatching this series with u guys. Such a wild and powerful story. Definitely send the The Pacific series reaction next, crazy how different it was from the war in Europe. Love the channel💪
Awesome ride watching this with you gents, appreciate it!
Great to get y'alls reaction on this series. Truly an incredible series, to be sure. What that generation went through is just unfathomable, and these actors really sold the emotion and vibe of the situation. Looking forward to seeing you both in future reactions!
Thanks for your interest and reaction to to this story.
No problem at all! We enjoyed learning about the people & their sacrifices that allowed us to live how we are today! Much love💙
I enjoyed watching your reactions to this series! I've watched BoB for over 20 years at this point and it never gets old. Since you guys seem to live in the area, you should visit Dick Winters' grave in Ephrata, PA. It's right off Route 222.
We appreciate you & happy you enjoyed our reactions💙 We are planning on visiting the museum at some point, making a vlog out of it so people who can’t visit can experience it w/ us🙏🏾
Thanks guys.
We appreciate you & thank you for the support💙
Got to watch the actual documentary called “We Stand Alone” the secret 11th episode.
Loved your take on this series. Massive respect to you gentlemen.
We appreciate you & much love💙
Great reaction men. So happy to see the enjoyment you got out of this. Odd isn't it? After watching this a person almost feels like they knew these men. Much respect to all those heroes. You did a fine job and it was pleasing to see your reverence and respect for them. sadly they are all gone now. There is a museum I believe in ghettysburg where you can see Major Winters clothing, and other artifacts. Peace brothers.
We appreciate you & having you here w/ us on this journey💙 they did an amazing job telling the stories & including them into the series. We will definitely at some point head out to see the museum, as it feels like a must at this point. Much love!
There is a new series by this same director called “Masters Of TheAir”. It’s the same concept but about the Army Air Corps. You will LOVE it.
We will definitely check it out sometime in the future on the channel!
Thanks guys, really have enjoyed this.
We appreciate you & happy you enjoyed our reactions! Much love💙
Great job guys! Loved your reaction.
you should definitely watch We Stand Alone Together (the documentary with the full interviews of the easy company guys)
We are going to next week & have it up sometime next weekend
@@DaKidsReact awesome!
That ending always always always makes me cry. And I told you!! Dick winters memorial is in Ephrata PA which is close to you two. Def go see it ❤❤❤❤
Was a great way to send us off! Loved that they included the real easy company men in the series. It’s only right that we go see it soon! May make a vlog or something of it when we do so you guys can experience it as well
@@DaKidsReact omg please do!!!! He passed away in 2011. It’s very moving. Y’all got me. I’m gonna subscribe to your patreon lol. I hope you two do The Pacfic. Highly recommend after BOB
The Pacific will be our next show we start in 2 weeks for Patreon. Will be about 4-5 months before it comes to YT
27:40 When I came back from Iraq we were allowed to put combat patches on our shoulders. I was just an E-4. My buddy and I were walking to the PX, we both had our 3ID combat patch on the right shoulder of our BDU's. Both of US had our EFMB sewn over our pocket (we didn't get the CMB until later). I forgot to salute a female medical officer. She was a nurse and a Captain. She was accompanied by a Staff Seargent who dressed me down and read me the riot act. I took it because I was wrong. I should have saluted. Neither of them had been out of USEAR. You have to salute officers. I just wasn't paying attention. The odd aspect is the female officer was embarrassed. The Staff Seargent had to do what he did.
That’s what our impression. We thought you had to salute officers of higher ranks that’s why we were thrown off that Sobel trying to walk past and not salute Winters and Nixon was a little wild.
@@DaKidsReact The only thing I said when he was dressing me down was "Yes Seargent," and "No Seargent." Because I was wrong.
In the end ,Sobel was still a Captain ,Winters a Major. Sobel in real life tried to blow his brains out but just blew his eyeballs out and suffered !!!!!!!!!!
Great Series and Reaction !!! Thank You
Great job. Good men. Appreciate the reaction.
Much love & we appreciate you & your support💙
Great reaction and fantastic and thoughtful commentary! Well done! I hope that you both will react to THE PACIFIC and MASTERS OF THE AIR. They are companion shows made by the same individuals (including Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks) who produced BAND OF BROTHERS. The Pacific follows Marines fighting in the Pacific during WW2. Masters of the Air follows pilots serving in Europe during the war. They are both fantastic series in their own right.
Once again, excellent job of reacting this series! You guys made me laugh when you almost fell off your chairs when you heard "Hershey, Pennsylvania", LOL. Just so you know, Richard "Dick" Winters died on January 2, 2011 - aged 92 - in Palmyra, Pennsylvania - according to Wikipedia.
We appreciate you & happy you enjoyed our reactions! We drive to Hershey everyday as that’s where we work out at (here right now) & we played palmyra in football back in HS! Crazy how close everything is to us
@@DaKidsReact You're right, it's crazy how our lives overlap with others sometimes. It's also a good example of how you could walk right past someone on the street and have no idea what they had done in their lives.
That’s why we always try to respect others as we don’t know 🙏🏾
@@DaKidsReact I like your outlook on life, thanks again for being there on UA-cam.
Thank you gentlemen. It was a great experience. Keep on pushing
We appreciate & thank you💙

@@DaKidsReact Loved your Harry Potter series so far. Looking forward to the finale.
Reacting to it Sunday & will have it up that following weekend💙
Once again, good job. Thumbs up. Looking forward to future reactions.
We appreciate you & can’t wait to bring all the content we have planned for this year! More war movies & series coming as well🙏🏾
I really enjoyed your reactions thru this entire series. I also appreciate that you didn't make us wait long for the next episode! I can't wait for Schindler's List!
We appreciate you & happy you enjoyed our reactions! We felt a week was long but due to how much i (swizz) have to edit & we are watching we thought it was a good fit so im happy to hear that. Schindlers list will be coming in about 3-4 weeks🔥
A bit calmer final episode but after all that its nice to see these guys with clean uniforms and no trees exploding.
Banger reactions from you two 🔥
