@@nyykSIUUU He's jokingly suggesting he's whoever they're after because the US troops cut off every route he tried to cycle down whilst they moved into position.
@Justin Time I think it's unfair to so they're the greatest generation. Only because they were given the oppertunity to do something so amazingly great and they dove headfirst into that war, committing such selfless acts for their brothers with them. Today, it's rare for the military to be face to face with the enemy. They never look into the enemies eyes. They don't have the same respect for the enemy as they did back then. The military isn't the oppertunity to do amazing things like it was before. People sit in an office and bomb entire cities flying a drone. I still respect our soldiers today. But World War 2 was the greatest conflict between good and evil this world has ever seen. And I'm sure that any generation today would have stepped up to the plate because when it comes down to it, we are all human. And as humans we have a indistinguishable fire that burns to do something great and be a part of something bigger than the individual.
@Justin Time Also I actually really liked Sobel. And that scene where they start singing that song marching up currahe after being stuffed with spaghetti, and Sobel looks so proud of them. That was a great scene. And obviously Winters. I honestly couldn't believe everything he did in the show he did in real life. What a born leader.
@Justin Time And I'm a semi-socialist btw. Just because some people have different ideas about how to get to a world where everyone is happy with their lives doesn't mean we are any different. We all have the same goals. Just different ideas on how to get there
He also tells Pvt. Halls to look out for “buildings, roads, bridges…trees,” and Halls looks at him right when Winters said “trees” and they both have a laugh. That part gets me. That also happened in Ep 2/ Day of Days.

0:40 never noticed this until now but the map handler smiled after hearing the Major Horton impression, which means he new it was Luz, and then covered for him. Incredible details
while I was serving in the army the food was monotonously repetitive, but when we got baked bacon and eggs instead of beans everyone knew it's going to be a fucked up and long day.
One of my favorites is when Buck tells two people not to do anything stupid. And the other guys say “don’t do anything stupid A bunch of guys just volunteered to jump out of a perfectly good airplane. Doesn’t get any more stupid then that”. Sums up military life pretty well
No it sums up Airborne. Knowing one being in jump school is a thing volunteer and can quit any time and yet stay no matter how sore and lame keep going does make one think on how stupid yet love it.
So Buck had just gotten back from a field hospital after getting shot in the ass. That wound changed him. He became more serious. What he was telling some of his good friends was not to take unnecessary risks. Not that the retreat from German tanks was risky but knowing you could get killed any time probably changes things.
Airborne School - Week One: the men are separated from the boys. Week Two: the men are separated from the fools. Week Three: the fools jump out of airplanes!
I'm glad the writers chose to put in a few light hearted moments in a time when there wasn't much to laugh about. I can easily picture my grandfather as a young man having a good laugh with his fellow soldiers. He had quite the sense of humor, and i honestly think it probably helped him to get through the war.
Humor in combat is a funny thing....no pun intended. When I was in the deepest combat, we regularly had a laugh and light moment, given the circumstances. Weird looking back, but it was sure a stabilizer to our situation at the moment.
I think they had to have a sense of humor if for nothing else than cracking up, and some did unfortunately, we will never know the sacrifice that generation paid, they truly were, are and always will be the greatest generation
@@Blitzkrieg0811 eh, sad in the context of all german soldiers being considered nazis even to this day, but eeeeeeeeeh fuckit. I'm solid with the idea that jokes have no limits especially when told by those who've seen shit you and i can never imagine
Harry Paul yeah but most soldiers and civilians that were not SS were disgusted and horrified when they learned the extent of the prisoners camps brutality.
I’ve just finished watching BoB again and am still blown away by how incredible it is. I cry every time at the ending- the scene where they’re all playing baseball and you learn what becomes of them all, then I’m really blubbing when you see the real life soldiers and one of them says how when asked by his grandson whether he was a hero in the war he replied he wasn’t, but that he served in a company of heroes. . Man it gets me every damn time.😭😭😭😭
Just as poingnant is the ending of The Pacific when they tell of what happened to all the guys. Amazing. The one scene at the third from the last (I think) video CD is when they are on the train in San Francisco heading home. Snafu asks a civilian lady while boarding something to effect of will she be his caboose. She slaps him. He grins at Sledge while rubbing his cheek and says "ohh, Feisty!" That is classic!
It was a different world then. Most people took responsibility for their actions. People had integrity and pride in the value they provided to their fellow man. That is lacking these days and has been so for a while. Their was also empathy and sympathy for their fellow man. A conscience was hurt when it became necessary to take another life. I am not talking about the life of an enemy but life in general. Civilian collateral lives worn silently on those at the front. Then you worked for what you had and didn't expect someone to give you something for no effort on your part. There was a sense of duty and obligation to the country. To do your part, no matter if in service or on the home front in a supporting role no matter what it may be. There was a sense of honor among men. Your word and actions was what you were "graded" at. True to your word you were at the upper end of the scale. All mouth and no action or actions that sat poorly with your peers and/or society you were at the bottom of the scale.
dude george luz and malarkey definitely raised the morale of the entire company. im sure everyone did in their own way but these two seemed to always lift everyones spirits
"She's taking everything, she's taking the house, she's taking the kid, she's taking the dog- ITS NOT EVEN HER DOG! ITS MY DOG! SHES TAKING MY DOG!" That was my favorite part out of the whole series.
Hall: So what's that guy's problem? Malarkey: Gonorrhea. Hall: Really? Malarkey: His name, dummy. Guarnere. Gonorrhea get it? Hall: So besides having a shitty name, what's his problem?
My favorite bit comes later in the ep during the assault on the gun position. Just after Guarnere gives Hall some shit, Hall fires back with "Shut your fucking trap, Gonorrhea." Guarnere is so impressed all he can say is "That kid's alright!"
In real life, this happened. Lt. Nixon had pissed on a jar the night before (I do not remember why, though I imagine there was no toilet for him to use and he didn't want to go outside). When Winters came to wake him up, he assumed it was alcohol, and poured it on him to wake him up. There is a picture, I think, taken of Nixon shortly after this happened.

some other noteworthy moments from the book that didn't make it in: -before they ship out to europe, christenson gets so drunk he's "making out with the toilet", and randleman carries him to bed - in austria, the officers were ordered to turn in the silk maps of france they'd gotten for normandy. they refused. sobel, the regimental supply officer tried to get them to pay the $75 fine, to which winters replied with "nuts!" sobel backed down. - in holland, winters and nixon climbed up a bell tower to get a good look around. a german sniper spotted them, his shot hit the bell, scaring the shit out of winters and nixon and sending them flying back down the steps - lipton's pneumonia being cured by apfelstrudel and schnapps given to him by an old german couple in the house he and speirs were staying in - pvt. hoobler making pvt. farris rice fall flat on his face by whistling an imitation of an incoming shell when they were in holland - in the bastogne foxholes, a sleeping pvt. vittore throwing his leg over babe heffron and rubbing his chest bc he was dreaming about his wife, & heffron saying "sorry bud i can't help you, my clothes aren't coming off" - in berchtesgaden, sgt. mercier decided to dress up in a german officers uniform, someone had the idea to "turn him in" to captain speirs, only someone told speirs ahead of time, so when they turned in the fake officer and ask what to do with him, speirs says, without looking up, "take him out and shoot him". of course sgt. mercier comes out and said "sir wait no sir it's me sir"
@@lakshyaabhiyudan8933 Band of Brothers by Stephen Ambrose, the book the series was based on. It's a good read, I reccomend it if you liked the series and want to learn about it a bit more in-depth!
As a Marine vet, I literally belly laughed until I was light headed a few times while watching this series. Only those who served, can really laugh in their souls, as they've been there. My Lord, the view from the Eagle's Nest was amazing. Hope they enjoyed that and remembered it for all their life.
As a Marine vet myself, these scenes bring back fond memories of light-hearted moments in dark times while deployed to the sandbox. The Pacific had some good ones too, when the boys on the 'Canal found out it was the youngster's birthday and handed him a grenade and started singing an altered version of "Happy Birthday" or how Lucky got the nickname peaches. But Generation Kill nailed it . . . big time!!
@@andyjacobs7010 don't you bring that Charms evil on me!! I can't count how many times I've caught a young PFC or LCpl cracking open a thing of Charms and then the heavens opened up on us for the rest of our time in the field.
It’s easy to forget that this was filmed when Friends was the most popular sitcom in the country.. David Schwimer was the most well known actor in the whole series! He did an awesome job playing Sobel.
I've looked at that bit over and over, and it's still hard to see how the special effects people made that happen, I could not find any bulge on the helmet indicating an explosive charge for the PING!
Yeah, now that you mention it. Except there's no snow, we got warm grub in our bellies, and the trees aren't fuckin' exploding from Kraut artillery, but yeah, Frank. Its just like Bastogne.
List of Luz's impersonations: 0:08 Sobel - "how do you expect to slay the Huns with dust on your jumpwings!" 0:36 Major Horton - "Cut that fence" 1:49 Col Sink - "Tonight is the night of nights" 2:42 General Taylor - "Flies spread diseases" 4:23 Movie - "Got that penny? 6:11 Lt Dike - "You organize things here, while I'm gonna call for... 'elp." 8:15 Pvt Janovic - "The Germans... are BAD!"
"what about socks Junior? You,ve got extra socks?" "I have pair." "you need four minimum" "Feets, Hands, Neck, Balls, extra pair to cover them all" "yeah we all remember that one, but did we remember the socks?" ROFL....
"Hey George?" "Huh?" "Doesn't this kinda remind you of Bastogne?" "Yeah. Now that you mention it. Except of course there's no snow, we've got warm grub in our bellies, and the trees aren't fucking exploding from Kraut artillery! But yeah Frank other than that it's a lot like Bastogne." "Right?" "Bull smack him for me please?" *thump* "Thank you.." This series very accurately showed the comradeship between these guys. From Toccoa to Austria.
gbonkers666 “Seriously?” “No, not seriously, dummy. His name, Gunneiere, gonorrhea, get it?” ... “So besides having a shitty name, what’s his problem?”
Donald Malarkey: Hey, Skip! Where ya been? I've been lookin' all over for you! Warren Muck: Well, Don, I was at home in Tonawanda, but then Hitler started this whole thing, so now I'm here.
He was also a replacement who was eager to see action which was annoying to those guys who had literally been fighting since D-Day and buried many comrades along the way.
Malarkey and the boys laughing and joking at 4:50 is one of the most important moments of the whole series imo. It illustrates (along with several other moments in that episode) how morale was high among the troops in the absolute worst conditions, and how they kept each other's spirits up.
"How are those nuts, Sarge?" Doing fine, Bill, nice of you to ask... You can almost hear the "disappointed dad rolling his eyes" tone in Lipton's voice.
it was Michael Cudlitz's role as Denver that made me so angry when Abraham (his character in the walking dead) was killed, alongside series best character Glenn, there was no part of me that wanted to continue that show
I was 8 years old when I read about that in my grandmoms history books. 1996. With the Black and White pictures, and all the detail in battle reports. I was fascinated about the history and I still am. We are Finns and the 3 book Series were called "Maailma Palaa" = World in Flames. Gen. McAuliffe said the famous words and kept the spirits up in Bastogne. Of course the battalion Leaders Sent the message forward to the troops.
"Remember boys, Flies spread disease... So keeps yours closed!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Ex-servicemen tend only to remember the good times. I recall an elderly ex-RAF New Zealander who gave talks about his wartime service in Wellington bombers. One entry in his log book read something like, "Port engine shot out over Hamburg. Expended every last round of ammunition during running battle with two night fighters. Hydraulics shot away, wound down the undercarriage by hand, ran out of fuel on final approach, machine declared a write-off". I asked him to tell us more about that flight. He replied, "Everybody asks that but I don't remember a damned thing about it".
I love how quick witted they all are, I know it's probably cause they're using a script but how quickly they pick up on things like 'Nothing you wouldn't eat Malarkey', 'I wouldn't eat Malarkey' is great.
@@jeffnettleton3858 It’s like that with any group of guys. I’ve seen it in the military, law enforcement, playing football, basketball and baseball, even in church group. A lot of comebacks are hard (that’s what she said).
I rewatched the series recently. I loved just as much as went I first watched it. Every character in this series I have feelings for, whether that be love or hate, they all feel real. What’s even better is seeing them transform from the start to end, my favourite example is Don Malarkey. At the start of the series and the start of his war he was chirpy, always smiling and making jokes. Towards the end he was a shell of the man he once was, and it all makes sense. He had seen his friends die, or be horrifically injured, he had experienced war, in all its hell and it showed.
I have been watching some old ww2 films Such as: A walk in the sun which is made in 1945 Gung Ho was made in 1943 Go for broke was made in 1951 Corregidor was made in 1943 Ski troop attack was made in 1960 Casablanca Express was made in 1989 The steel claw was made in 1961 Desert Camandos was made in 1967 which is not a very good film because I haven't watched the whole thing. Minesweeper was made in 1943 Bombs over Burma was made in 1943 Commandos was made in 1968 Pacific Inferno was made in 1979 The battle of the eagles was made in 1979 and i don't find that film awesome because it's about eastern front partisans Submarine alert was made in 1943 The dawn express in 1942 Five for Hell in 1967 Black Brigade was made in 1970 Heroes in Hell was made in 1973 which again I don't find very good Submarine Base in 1943 And Aerial Gunner in 1943 And I'll look up some more. And Yes some of them were made during the war.
+Ted Huckeba OH check out To Hell And Back it's an old WW2 movie staring One of the greatest soldiers of the Western Front Audey Murphy. He would later go on to convince congress that PTSD is a real disorder that all men who go into battle can suffer from if the stress is high enough. He was only 19 when the war ended and he hadn't even finished grade school because he was trying to take care of his family in the 30's. He was a true American Hero.
I knew an old squid who's in Heaven now that was a gunner, 40mm on a destroyer. He told me that depiction of Band Of Brothers was right on and it brought tears to his eyes. He's 22 years gone now God bless him and all those men and women who are still over there
"My brother's in Africa. He says it's hot." "Really? It's hot in Africa?" "Shut Up." Kills me, along with the scene where captain Sobel thinks he's talking to the Major. Absolute gold
There's this stupid ass kid in my grade who walks like he thinks he's so fucking cool. So whenever I see him, I think to myself: "Look at me, I'm Ryan King, look at me". And I say it like Luz (sorry I'm having a mind blank and forgot the actor's name lol) said it.
if you get a chance, look up the 10th anniversary interviews, on youtube, the one about sobel is very interesting. David schwimmer really explains why he was that way with the other men.
These men fought 30 years after what we consider the end of the old west. Think about it. Wyatt Earp was still alive while most of these dudes were still teenagers. History is amazing like that sometimes.
Earp died in 1927 or so. Most of the guys in Easy Company were still in grammar school at that time. Earp's widow actually lived until the late 40s, so she would have been alive when these guys were teens.
@@jillvalentine5962 the only major inaccuracy was the death of Albert Blithe. He was indeed shot in the neck but contrary to the show saying he died in hospital in like 47, he actually lived well into the 60s, he even served with Sobel in the Korean War. died due to a perforated ulcer in 67 i think
@@quinnmarchese6313 Yeah, it's true that he survived and went on to serve in Korea (I never heard about him serving with Sobel again though), but when they were filming the series, it was believed that he had died because nobody from Easy Company ever heard from him again, so they all believed that he died from his injuries. It was only after the series aired that Blithe's family contacted the producers and told them that he had survived. Also, Blithe wasn't actually shot in the neck either. He was shot in the collarbone, but again, this wasn't realized at the time and his comrades only thought he had been shot in neck. It's probably why they thought that he had died. However, sadly, he was still pretty young when he died. He was only 44.
Nicely, but one part left I think. Part 07, Speirs came to Christenson, Perconte and a fresh man Webb., when they were in their foxhole and talking about the whole "POW" thing, then he asked "Anyone care for a smoke?". Those three guy's expressions are so hilarious.
:S-1:They said he Gave some Germans Cigarettes then Hosed them down... S-2:I heard it was like...20 S-3:I hear it was about 30... :Speirs:What're you mean doing on the line,Christiansen? :S-2:We're watching the forest,sir... :speirs:Well keep up the good work... :speirs slowly walking off:Any of you care for a smoke? :All three:O_O :S-1:*Starts rapidly brushing his teeth* S-2:*Quickly shakes his head NO* S-3:Uhhhm...NO SIR.
Because it was filmed in G.B. the union rules required 50% Brit actors and crew. Because Spielburg and Hanks were so meticulous in their casting, their best has come on over the past 20 years. Genius is genius.
Richard Winters: Harry, fire’s not a good idea. Harry Welsh: Just a couple of minutes. We’re in a dell. Richard Winters: A dell? Like where fairies and gnomes live? Cpt. Nixon: I swear I thought I could smell a fire… I DID smell a fire. Are you out of your mind? Richard Winters: Well, we’re in a dell. Cpt. Nixon: Huh?
I always liked the part where Strayer is talking to Sobel about the fence cutting incident. "Who is the IDIOT who cut that man's fence?" "I was ordered to, sir!" "By whom?" "Major Horton, sir." "Major Horton?" "Yes sir." "Major Horton told you to do that." "Yes sir." "Major Horton ordered you to cut the fence?" "Yes, he did." "Major Horton is on leave... in London."
Back in the late 50s, I had a Sunday school teacher who was in Italy during the war. He saw the series right before he passed away. He said Band of Brothers depicted EXACTLY the way things were.
Missed "Captain Sobel doesn't hate easy company. He just hates you."

My favorite one
Me too favorite line from winters
I’ve just finished watching BoB again and am still blown away by how incredible it is. I cry every time at the ending- the scene where they’re all playing baseball and you learn what becomes of them all, then I’m really blubbing when you see the real life soldiers and one of them says how when asked by his grandson whether he was a hero in the war he replied he wasn’t, but that he served in a company of heroes. . Man it gets me every damn time.😭😭😭😭
Just as poingnant is the ending of The Pacific when they tell of what happened to all the guys. Amazing. The one scene at the third from the last (I think) video CD is when they are on the train in San Francisco heading home. Snafu asks a civilian lady while boarding something to effect of will she be his caboose. She slaps him. He grins at Sledge while rubbing his cheek and says "ohh, Feisty!" That is classic!
This series brings tears to my eyes and several several points. The ending is the best thank you.
I absolutely lose it at that line and ugly cry.
These men.... They're just so much better than I'll ever be. Or anyone I'll ever know for that matter.
" one of them says how when asked by his grandson "
That was actually the real Major Winters speaking at the end there, saying that line.
Richard Winters was around 26 years old when he jumped in as Lt. Then 27-28 when he earned Major. I'm 30 and I wonder how people even exist.
Extraordinary times force people to be extraordinary.
Hell, I’m 20 and Alexander the Great unified Greece when he was 20, conquered half of the world by 30.
I did some research into Winters and apparently he died before shooting stopped. RIP Winters.😔
28 years old and a major in the Airborne, and nowadays millennials cant even hold a job at mcdonalds
It was a different world then. Most people took responsibility for their actions. People had integrity and pride in the value they provided to their fellow man. That is lacking these days and has been so for a while. Their was also empathy and sympathy for their fellow man. A conscience was hurt when it became necessary to take another life. I am not talking about the life of an enemy but life in general. Civilian collateral lives worn silently on those at the front. Then you worked for what you had and didn't expect someone to give you something for no effort on your part. There was a sense of duty and obligation to the country. To do your part, no matter if in service or on the home front in a supporting role no matter what it may be. There was a sense of honor among men. Your word and actions was what you were "graded" at. True to your word you were at the upper end of the scale. All mouth and no action or actions that sat poorly with your peers and/or society you were at the bottom of the scale.
"Bull, will you smack him for me?" (thump) "Thank you."
Carl Williams yeah percents if you get rid of the cold. The snow and the trees aren’t f*cking exploding yeah if you forget that. Kinda like Bastogne.
dude george luz and malarkey definitely raised the morale of the entire company. im sure everyone did in their own way but these two seemed to always lift everyones spirits

In real life, this happened. Lt. Nixon had pissed on a jar the night before (I do not remember why, though I imagine there was no toilet for him to use and he didn't want to go outside). When Winters came to wake him up, he assumed it was alcohol, and poured it on him to wake him up. There is a picture, I think, taken of Nixon shortly after this happened.

some other noteworthy moments from the book that didn't make it in:
-before they ship out to europe, christenson gets so drunk he's "making out with the toilet", and randleman carries him to bed
- in austria, the officers were ordered to turn in the silk maps of france they'd gotten for normandy. they refused. sobel, the regimental supply officer tried to get them to pay the $75 fine, to which winters replied with "nuts!" sobel backed down.
- in holland, winters and nixon climbed up a bell tower to get a good look around. a german sniper spotted them, his shot hit the bell, scaring the shit out of winters and nixon and sending them flying back down the steps
- lipton's pneumonia being cured by apfelstrudel and schnapps given to him by an old german couple in the house he and speirs were staying in
- pvt. hoobler making pvt. farris rice fall flat on his face by whistling an imitation of an incoming shell when they were in holland
- in the bastogne foxholes, a sleeping pvt. vittore throwing his leg over babe heffron and rubbing his chest bc he was dreaming about his wife, & heffron saying "sorry bud i can't help you, my clothes aren't coming off"
- in berchtesgaden, sgt. mercier decided to dress up in a german officers uniform, someone had the idea to "turn him in" to captain speirs, only someone told speirs ahead of time, so when they turned in the fake officer and ask what to do with him, speirs says, without looking up, "take him out and shoot him". of course sgt. mercier comes out and said "sir wait no sir it's me sir"
This is gold, thank you for sharing 😁
Wish they were included in the series, would have a funny scene
the last three are hilarious, can’t believe they didn’t seize the opportunity to add them.
Which book are these references from?
@@lakshyaabhiyudan8933 Band of Brothers by Stephen Ambrose, the book the series was based on. It's a good read, I reccomend it if you liked the series and want to learn about it a bit more in-depth!
As a Marine vet, I literally belly laughed until I was light headed a few times while watching this series. Only those who served, can really laugh in their souls, as they've been there. My Lord, the view from the Eagle's Nest was amazing. Hope they enjoyed that and remembered it for all their life.
As a Marine vet myself, these scenes bring back fond memories of light-hearted moments in dark times while deployed to the sandbox. The Pacific had some good ones too, when the boys on the 'Canal found out it was the youngster's birthday and handed him a grenade and started singing an altered version of "Happy Birthday" or how Lucky got the nickname peaches. But Generation Kill nailed it . . . big time!!

It’s easy to forget that this was filmed when Friends was the most popular sitcom in the country.. David Schwimer was the most well known actor in the whole series! He did an awesome job playing Sobel.

Malarkey and the boys laughing and joking at 4:50 is one of the most important moments of the whole series imo.
It illustrates (along with several other moments in that episode) how morale was high among the troops in the absolute worst conditions, and how they kept each other's spirits up.
They knew they were in hell and they were gonna get out of it together, even if they have to carry each other

I was 8 years old when I read about that in my grandmoms history books. 1996. With the Black and White pictures, and all the detail in battle reports. I was fascinated about the history and I still am. We are Finns and the 3 book Series were called "Maailma Palaa" = World in Flames.
Gen. McAuliffe said the famous words and kept the spirits up in Bastogne. Of course the battalion Leaders Sent the message forward to the troops.
The transformation of these happy-go-lucky young men into grizzled, dark, traumatized survivors is heartbreaking.
That's what war does to you.

Ex-servicemen tend only to remember the good times. I recall an elderly ex-RAF New Zealander who gave talks about his wartime service in Wellington bombers. One entry in his log book read something like, "Port engine shot out over Hamburg. Expended every last round of ammunition during running battle with two night fighters. Hydraulics shot away, wound down the undercarriage by hand, ran out of fuel on final approach, machine declared a write-off". I asked him to tell us more about that flight. He replied, "Everybody asks that but I don't remember a damned thing about it".

What’s even better is seeing them transform from the start to end, my favourite example is Don Malarkey. At the start of the series and the start of his war he was chirpy, always smiling and making jokes. Towards the end he was a shell of the man he once was, and it all makes sense. He had seen his friends die, or be horrifically injured, he had experienced war, in all its hell and it showed.

Earp died in 1927 or so. Most of the guys in Easy Company were still in grammar school at that time. Earp's widow actually lived until the late 40s, so she would have been alive when these guys were teens.

@@quinnmarchese6313 Yeah, it's true that he survived and went on to serve in Korea (I never heard about him serving with Sobel again though), but when they were filming the series, it was believed that he had died because nobody from Easy Company ever heard from him again, so they all believed that he died from his injuries. It was only after the series aired that Blithe's family contacted the producers and told them that he had survived.
Also, Blithe wasn't actually shot in the neck either. He was shot in the collarbone, but again, this wasn't realized at the time and his comrades only thought he had been shot in neck. It's probably why they thought that he had died.
However, sadly, he was still pretty young when he died. He was only 44.
@@quinnmarchese6313 Was not the only major inaccuracy, but yeah, Blithe wasn't a coward and didn't die of his shoulder/neck wound.
BEST HBO SEIRES IN THE HISTORY OF EVER!!!! THANK YOU TOM HANK'S
Followed closely by The Pacific
Almost as good as Deadwood, but 2nd is a respectable position to be in!
This series is so emotional to watch.you feel like your a part of Easy company experiencing every battle they have fought
Best pray for Tom Hanks (if your into that) since he and his wife were recently diagnosed with the CV :(
Id say as far as action: the Pacific even if it was smaller show.
As far as fun and comedy: Band of brothers
I was honoured to take part, during the filming of this amazing series Easy Company is close to my heart 506 Screaming Eagles
Sobel is the type of guy to be all rough and tough on his underlings but crumbles like a coward when his superiors show up.
Nicely, but one part left I think. Part 07, Speirs came to Christenson, Perconte and a fresh man Webb., when they were in their foxhole and talking about the whole "POW" thing, then he asked "Anyone care for a smoke?". Those three guy's expressions are so hilarious.
:S-1:They said he Gave some Germans Cigarettes then Hosed them down...
S-2:I heard it was like...20
S-3:I hear it was about 30...
:Speirs:What're you mean doing on the line,Christiansen?
:S-2:We're watching the forest,sir...
:speirs:Well keep up the good work...
:speirs slowly walking off:Any of you care for a smoke?
:All three:O_O
:S-1:*Starts rapidly brushing his teeth*
S-2:*Quickly shakes his head NO*
S-3:Uhhhm...NO SIR.
LOVE that part! Never gets old!
RedDead Trooper Ever how many it was, it was true. So did Gonorrhea when he found out his brother died.
Holy crap, was everybody in Hollywood in this?
Basically a who's who of British actors, Tom Hardy, Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Simon Pegg, Damien Lewis, Jamie Bamber.
+Wedge Antilles Before any of them were who´s who
Because it was filmed in G.B. the union rules required 50% Brit actors and crew. Because Spielburg and Hanks were so meticulous in their casting, their best has come on over the past 20 years. Genius is genius.
A Company, at full strength is about a couple hundred guys ... so ... they needed a lot of them.

@@roguelead72 i think Shane taylor is British too but idk
Richard Winters: Harry, fire’s not a good idea.
Harry Welsh: Just a couple of minutes. We’re in a dell.
Richard Winters: A dell? Like where fairies and gnomes live?
Cpt. Nixon: I swear I thought I could smell a fire… I DID smell a fire. Are you out of your mind?
Richard Winters: Well, we’re in a dell.
Cpt. Nixon: Huh?
That part where Toye names everything he has to carry was done in one take 👌🏻
One of the best series ever. Rewatched it maybe 20 times. Never gets old.
I always liked the part where Strayer is talking to Sobel about the fence cutting incident.
"Who is the IDIOT who cut that man's fence?"
"I was ordered to, sir!"
"By whom?"
"Major Horton, sir."
"Major Horton?"
"Yes sir."
"Major Horton told you to do that."
"Yes sir."
"Major Horton ordered you to cut the fence?"
"Yes, he did."
"Major Horton is on leave... in London."
Strayer is smiling slightly at certain points. He knows Sobel has been had .
@@hannahdyson7129 He even gives him a chance to change his answer by asking the question several times
Huge respect for the veterans!!!

Back in the late 50s, I had a Sunday school teacher who was in Italy during the war. He saw the series right before he passed away. He said Band of Brothers depicted EXACTLY the way things were.
