A series I wasn’t even aware existed, until a good while after it initially aired, is Black Sails. It is about piracy in the “New World” circa 1710. Thirty-eight episodes of some of the most well-written storylines with fantastic character development. Not sure if it would necessarily be your usual viewing fare, but is an interesting prequel, if you will, to Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. A reading of the novel makes the show extremely interesting, but not required at all. The show mixes RLS’s characters and actual historical figures. I definitely recommend.
I very much thank you for the reverence & respect you gave these men...their story. As a fellow Veteran, these guys are my heroes. My grandfather & two great uncles fought in WWII, so that "Greatest Generation" is near & dear to me. Each & every generation needs to know what happened. (For another series suggestion, might I recommend "The Man in the High Castle". It is fantastic & no spoiler, but it relates to the same time period)
10/10 tv series are Deadwood, Chernobyl, True Detective (season 1 only) and The wire. 9/10 tv series are The Sopranos, The West Wing, Breaking Bad, Futurama, Twin Peaks (season 1 only), Rome and South Park.
A series I loved was "From the Earth to the Moon" Also produced by Tom Hanks. Not as heart wrenching as Band of Brothers but still a well done mini series.
My mother was Dutch and lived in Heerlen, Holand, just seven miles from the first German town captured by the Americans in WW2. They were so happy when the Americans arrived and freed them. When the Battle of the Bulge was getting ready to start and the Americans started heading south to Belgium, it was all snow and my family and others took everything they had white and gave it to the troops so they could blend in. My aunt was married in a parachute that she made a wedding dress out of. My father landed in the first wave at Omaha Beach. I would love for you to react to "We Were Soldiers".
@@goodshipkaraboudjan I like Aussie Vietnam War movies==they often use very authentic 'kit'; 'Odd Angry Shot' had an actual RPD light machinegun in it, and 'Danger' had what looked like an SG43 LMG, complete with it's wheeled carriage.
"Greater love hath no man than this, to lay his life down for his friends" John 15:13 The look on Babe Heffron's face when he said his buddy took the round meant for him- Survivor's guilt is brutal. The Greatest Generation indeed.
My neighbors father was a survivor of the Utah Beach landing. He and his brother-in-law where survivors. I remember being at Barbeque with him when that subject was.brought up. He turned to his brother-in - law.and said Joe, I don't know how we survived that landing.
Seeing old men cry will make me cry 100% of the time. These guys are the saviors of the free world. No amount of respect we can give will ever be enough
This is a classic show. Brave men giving their lives for our freedom. My uncle Fred stormed the beaches of Normandy and they scored a major Victory. Sgt. Fred Raymond Livingstone led his troops to victory. He survived the war but passed away in 1979 from colon cancer. He was my hero. He told me to hang on to my dreams. I will never forget him.
I work in a care home for residents with dementia and I've always found it so helpful to find out about their youth. Many remember the war as children. Their recent memories are gone but if you talk to them about air raids or rationing they remember it all. Powerful memories never die and neither do the emotions associated with them. In this series and 'The Pacific' we see those memories bringing emotions back so strongly. Many could not talk about it to anyone who wasn't there but as they reached their later years they started to tell their stories to make sure that the world knew.
Thank you for your thoughtful covering this wonderful companion documentary. Continue to embrace and nurture your curiosity. It shows by how reflective and imaginative you are..especially as seen in your reactions.
Yes, War is Hell. It was rumored that “Old Blood n Guts” General George S Patton himself, while visiting a Concentration Camp, walked behind a building to throw up; Twice.
Wow!! I’ve never seen this!!!!! Thank you so very much for bringing this to my attention! These stories are rough but need to be told for us and especially for them! Took me some years of talking about my personal events during numerous deployments to be able to “live” well again.
The documentary is available on TH-cam! I'm glad to hear that you were able to open up and it helped you "live" well again!! I agree, the stories need to be told so we have a better chance at not repeating history
The actor who played Lewis Nixon made a “video diary” about the 2 week training period before filming began. It is on TH-cam and features the cast getting into their characters, bonding together as well as going through physical training. It is really a great watch.
Thank you! Seeing the younger generation appreciate this series is heart warming and seeing how it moved you also moves me. I am a 21 year Army Vet. I am pushing 60 and remember the people I served with better than my own family. I met theses guys while I was still serving, on the promotional tour. I was moved by your reactions to this. While I was stationed in Germany prior to my first combat tour, I got a chance to visit Dachau and it moved me to my core. Thank you again for your reaction and your words!
Another great video! Awed when I think of the sacrifices that have been made. At 25:47 made me think of the concept of sonder, the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own-populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness. My brain always explodes when I think about that
The man with the young daughter who talks about them visiting the Normandy graveyard is Tipper, they guy who gets hit by the shell while he's in the store and is comforted by Liebgott.
A lot of the old footage and especially the old photos are actually of the men of Easy Co. There are lots of videos of both the men and the actors on TH-cam and are well worth looking up which also includes reunions with the actors and special anniversary meetings which also include some of the writers, directors and producers. Black Sky radio did a lot of interviews with the cast. There are also lots of books about Easy Co., including biographies/auto-biographies by some of the men, including - Winters, 'Buck' Compton, Webster, Guth, Speirs, Malarkey, 'Shifty' Powers and a joint one by Guarnere & 'Babe' Heffron. And if you haven't already, read the 'Band of Brothers' book by Stephen Ambrose. Ps, great reactions from you. All the best.
Both my grandparents were in the war. My dads dad fought in the British army in a tank in North Africa, up though Italy. He always talked about the fun things they did on their off time, until one day when he was visiting he just out of no where started talking. He talked about how it really was, how they were shelled and attacked from the air, crossing the straights of Messina in landing craft as mortars blew up ships around them. I remember he said they were getting attacked by German tanks and they called in Allied air support and the. His voice cracks “the damn yanks hit us.” US planes accidentally hit his column and killed a bunch of friends. I was around 13 so I think he figured I was old enough to hear it. My dad hadn’t even heard the stories. He talked for about 8 hours straight and that was it, never spoke about it again. My moms dad was in the US navy. Late in the war he caught pneumonia and had to be hospitalized missing his ship leaving port. That ship was the USS Indianapolis, torpedoed by a Japanese sub and most of the crew were eaten by sharks before rescue.
My Great Grandfather was also in North Africa with the 2nd AIF, he was a Sergeant doing tank recovery, repairing them and sending them back out. Nasty job for all involved in Armoured units. Never met the man but apparently they'd use sand to clear out what remained of the crews then patched them up and sent them back out. He ended up being assigned as a driver on captured Italian tanks at Tobruk once they were cut off. They painted big Kangaroos on the side to prevent friendly fire and the gunners were artillerymen while the commanders were just the closest NCO. His youngest son, my Grandfather served in Borneo as a teenager in 44 and 45. Never ever spoke about it to anyone. Very lucky escape for your Grandfather on the Indianapolis for sure, absolute horror story.
In the late 2000s I saw an old man with a huge medal rack including the Distinguished Flying Cross on his coat doing book signings outside of a shop. He was an ex RAAF Navigator that served with Bomber Command and at the time I was a teenager fresh out of high school starting off my pilots license so we had a wonderful chat. I bought he book, got it signed and he wished me the best with flying. After reading the book I was blown away he flew over 100+ raids due to the fact the RAF didn't have tour limits and his squadron had 55% killed over the course of the war. You'd never pick it from how humble those men are who fought in WW2. He went into probably a bit too much detail on his conquests with the local ladies in the UK but anyway he was such a nice humble bloke and I'm glad I got to speak with him.
Yes. This series is highly re-watchable. All the main 'characters' are there from the beginning and you'll notice a lot of things things you missed before.
Thanks for doing this. Excellent doc. My granddad was a bomber pilot (mixed british and canadian crew in Lancaster bomber) and ended up POW and was death marched from Poland. He survived and was never the same according to my mum and my aunt. He died when I was 5 and always seemed so sweet. Now I have his honors (pins and so forth) in a box in my room. Wish I'd known him better. He was 19 when he signed up.
The significance of wearing the eagle patch on the right sleeve is that it signifies you served in combat in that unit. Non combat members of the unit wear the patch on their left sleeve. The American Cemetery in The Netherlands has a waiting list for Dutch families to receive the grave of an allied soldier to care for. They learn everything about "their" soldier they can, and communicate with his family. If the family comes to visit the grave, they are likely to be housed with the Dutch family. To them, it is a huge debt of honor to care for a soldier's grave. Many of the Band of Brothers actors have continued the tradition of annual reunions. As with Easy's reunions, they are by invitation only. Most of the actors formed strong friendships with the soldier they portrayed, and their families.
You have my mindset, and heart too V. Always, for as long as I can remember, I've always looked at old people the same as you.... 'what is their story'. Now I'm one of them and I've come to realize that my story is insane. I think back through the years and all that's happened (to me and in the world), and it's jarring. The perspective in old age is so radically different than even being a young adult, it's impossible to measure. It's remarkable to walk with the perspective and history of a senior citizen (I'm on the doorstep, but it doesn't matter). It is priceless.
Well said. I actually *am* a senior citizen now, and when you first come to the realization that you’re “old” in the eyes of most people, it can be jarring. Bit of a badge of honor, also. I certainly am amazed sometimes that I made it this long with some of my “stories”… 😉
25:15 a little over a third of them died on D-Day when the company HQ plane went down with 17 paratroopers on board (and 5 crew), plus a couple more who died in the fights that same day.
The way Shifty's kids talked about him...damn, My grandfather was in the Navy (can still look down at my keys and see his dog tag) and was in North Africa in '42 and in the Pacific in '44, and, like the vets of Easy, he didn't talk about it for a long time. He started to, maybe 4-5 years before he passed in '01, talk about it all. Would have loved to have heard more before he was gone, but I've heard enough and am proud and grateful for him and everyone else who did what they did.
I live in far NW South Carolina near the GA and NC lines. Currahee Mountain just outside of Toccoa, GA is about 40 miles south west of where I live. I’ve been many times. It’s a special place.
So glad you got to watch this. Its an amazing story. The men of Easy Company and all those who served our country our heroes, even if they would never say it. You are correct, when you watch the series a second time you will catch many small details. I have watched this series mutliple times over the years and I still find new things in each rewatching. Keep up the great work.
Those men really need to be remembered every day we make decisions. When we complain about something.. think about being bombed holding the line in the battle of the bulge. It was really heart wrenching seeing babe as an old man going back to the forest of the battle of the bulge remembering everything and yet not shedding a tear.. I really need to remember never to feel sorry for myself when I go through my own shit in times of peace.
I've been watching Band of Brothers for over 20 years now, I still get emotional. Best movie ever. So funny Guarnere was still a badass troublemaker until old age 😂😂
Not only did they sustain one of the highest casualty rates of the war in Europe, they also inflicted one of the highest casualty rates of the war in Europe.
"Old people have a lot of history." You know, being an old person, I think about that, too. If you take a moment to look back, you go, "Huh. I've had a life." And then you wonder what's yet to come (I'm kind of rooting for our future AI overlords). My mom is still kicking, and she tells me what it was like on the homefront in WWII. She's had a life, too. I've heard about it many, many (many) times 🙂. (Loads of old folk are eager to share.) And what's the difference between old and young? Perspective. The world always belongs to the young because as they are the ones who will have to live in the aftermath of what they've created, they have a bigger stake in what it's to be. Sometimes the older ones can offer some hard-won experience, good and bad, to get there (e.g. try not to let things get to a point where you have to jump out of a perfectly good airplane to land behind enemy lines).
One of my uncles fought in the Battle of the Bulge. He was in St Vith with a mortar crew and was captured. He spend the rest of the war in a German POW camp.
Wow. So many reactors are begged by their followers to watch this after going through BAND OF BROTHERS, and most don't. Now I'm subscribing and going back through your reactions to this series.
I got a kick out of you saying you have to watch this again. I had the same reaction watching it for the first time. I had to go to a friend's house every week because I didn't have HBO. I bought the DVD set as soon as it came out and I've lost count of the times I've watched the series over the years. I'm so glad you reacted to this documentary. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your reaction to it. Well done, young lady. PS: I'm old, and I have plenty of stories.
Its the same with many professions, like say a fireman...you may feel they are a hero for running into that building to save someone but for them it's just doing their job - to them it's their colleague that went in and never cane out, that sacrificed their life trying to save people that is the true hero.
This was the “Greatest Generation” of the history of the world with their experiences of witnessing and being involved with the most horrific dehumanizing events. So, naturally, they couldn’t share their stories with anyone who wasn’t there. Being a baby boomer, whenever some of these men would tell me “War Is Hell”, I knew one of their experiences , funny or horrific, was about to be shared. We all knew not to ask questions concerning their experiences but rather let these brave men speak when they were willing.
At the Evergreen Air & Space Museum, here in Oregon, I got to see Malarkey several times, as well as Compton, Guarnere, and some others. I got to sit next to Forrest Guth at a dinner and he was such a nice guy and it was great to hear about the things he experieced! He was one of the originals but the show just couldn't portray everyone, so they had to leave out many, like him.
Wow. Sounds like you had some fabulous experiences. I own the BoB box set that includes this documentary. Upon my first viewing I also wondered why more of the vets weren’t portrayed. I have seen many reactors comment they couldn’t initially keep up with all the names. Was a tough choice, I’m sure, to limit the men named, but also understandable.
@@Ernwaldo Yeah! Especially in war movies/series, you've often got guys all in the same type of uniform and wearing helmets, and that makes it so much harder to keep up with who is who, even when it's been limited to a fraction of the guys! Also, I believe a lot of the guys weren't really interested at first- and you can't blame them- you never know how Hollywood will portray people- even as well as they did here, there were things like wanting to make Winters seem "tougher" by using profanity, etc. but thankfully they were convinced to portray him as he really was, which to me is far better than the stereotypical portrayals we get.
@@RogCBrand I absolutely hear you & agree. There was usually an immense reticence among veterans to speak about their experiences, much less be “recognized” for what they did. Especially immortalized on film. My dad joined the USN in the summer of ‘41 & spent his entire enlistment at sea in the Pacific. All three of his brothers also served, along with an uncle & *aunt* from my mother’s side of my family. None were exactly forthcoming with their experiences, especially any bad ones. It was usually just the amusing things. That’s what makes Band of Brothers, the book & series (and this documentary), pretty damn special, imho.
I am a Vietnam combat veteran. I am still friends with my old squad members. I remember joining my company in the bush. I remember my first combat assault in a helicopter and how dry my mouth was and how wet my palms where. I vividly recall my first firefight. I do not go to my company reunions. I dont want to relive it.
Dick winters was quoted as saying that only when he looked out and saw the sheer amount of planes and ships sailing for Normandy did he appreciate and fully understand and realize how evil and monstrous Hitler was. He was a special form of evil.
Just remember. There are ALOT of vets that have seen more combat, spent longer away in a war zone than Easy Company. June44-Apr45. About 10 months. I have been and know lots of people that have 2 to even 5 times longer. Yet, most people do not understand this. They dismiss us as angry etc. Try and fit back in to society. At least in WW2 10% of people would have a similar experience. Now it is less than 1%. I do not have the time or the crayons to explain more. F me.
Hi, Miss Verowak. Glad you were able to watch this entertaining, informative and moving documentary. A second watch (or multiple!) of the series will allow you to catch things you missed, or didn’t necessarily understand, upon your initial viewing. Definitely recommend. Loved hearing all your thoughts toward the end of this video. You’re brilliant! Thanks for sharing. ❤️
To address your statement about wanting to hear the stories of old people. I think that it is almost instinctual to want to know about the past. We are taught to look to the future, which we should. But, looking forward should not be at the expense of forgetting our past. Ignorance of the past means that we will make the same mistakes over and over again. It is only in my life that the respect of our elders and their knowledge has been devalued to the point of irrelevance. To reach higher we need a foundation in the past to stand on. "If I have seen farther than others, it was because I was standing on the shoulders of giants." Sir Isaac Newton
None. Band of Brothers is in a category of its own. Still after 23 years, it holds it own against anything to day. The special effects on this still hold up today without the use of too much CGI. This story is about the Greatest Generation of our time who unselfishly went to fight for our freedom we enjoy today. I personally don't think we could expect that of people today. Different Times, Different People.
Thank you to everyone for no spoilers during the series or ruining the greatest reveal in history. Speaking of documentary style...you really need to see Nix's (Ron Livingston's) Personal video diary of their experience training for this. It makes you appreciate this and them even more somehow. It's pretty amazing when actors playing heroes have reunions of their own...As epic as D-Day was, it was a drop in the bucket in the War relatively speaking. Not taking anything away from these Men in any way. Watch "The Fallen of World War 2" for perspective of this tragedy.
We would not have these interviews if not for Winters. Most of the veterans from Easy company never wanted to talk about the war because of the trauma. But they respected Winters so much that he was able to convince them to tell their stories.
As another pointed out, other generations have done as much but sadly unrecognized. Vietnam veterans were even treated badly by the greatest generation, not even allowed at VFW posts (Veterans of Foreign Wars) for years. Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans burdened by an almost 20 year war, with lots serving multiple years in active war zones and less than .45% of the population serving so no real outside people realize what happened. So, we still have plenty like the greatest generation however no one is looking in the same place.
Can you imagine how hard it would be to return to the spot where you lost your leg...and saw so many of the friends you had made were killed. Thank you for a wonderful review. If you are aware, Hanks/Spielberg also made The Pacific (good...but I didn't think it was "as good" as BoB). But what you might not be aware of is the 3rd and final chapter of their WW2 "trilogy" starts on Friday on Apple TV with the series Masters of the Air...which covers those who fought in the 8th Army Air Corp in the European Theater. As someone who loves aviation history I'm so looking forward to it. I really hope you'll get a chance to review it in the future. Thank you so much again. I'm so glad I found your channel.
Uh, everytime I hear about that glass on top of the fence I get shivers, cause we have an old wall in our garden that has the same feautre. I learned the hard way not to touch the top of that wall when I was a kid.
There is a TH-cam video of the men of Easy Co photos from that time period along with photos of the actors that portrayed them called "The Real Band Of Brothers (Men of Easy Company and Band of Brothers),The resemblance is uncanny.Also a different one "A tribute to Band of Brothers Veterans"
So it's kinda Fales on the highest Casualty rates as other units were higher and spent more time in combat esp the 505th /504th/509th/551st ect....( A co, 551st came out of the battle of the bulge with just 1 officer and 7 men) 2:57 mark i was in E/506th Reenacted and we spent a lot of time with all the Troopers you see here . We gave Maj Winters that giudion that is framed on the wall behind him back in the late 90's as a gift. 7;23 mark so me and Bill hit it off and every WW2 living history event he would find me "Hey Kid, let's have a beer" and it was during the 50th anniversary of the Bulge were we had a late night drunk talk Grunt to Grunt about killing and he told me the story on how he really earned his nickname "Wild Bill" in Normandy and yes he did alot of killing. GOD watching this makes me miss these scallywags sitting around the barrack's telling stories heckling each other drinking Babe singing his songs Bill bitching about his singing the Maj drinking his soda smiling watching us all get wrecked on Prop Blast 13:27 mark Babe would always share that store and we would do a toast and to others all night long . So to this day the Families & Friends continue to hold the reunions last year it was in Rhode Island. They really did hate being called heroes, they would always correct people by saying the real heroes never came home . 25:32 mark LOL oh he would sing that song every year at the battle of the bulge reenactment
Those reunions let them get their feelings off of their chests. They were lucky in that respect. My dad never talked about his experiences, and I think it kept eating at him his whole life.
I'll watch anything that comes up about "Band of Brothers", I'll never get enough. And now "Masters of the Air" is coming out (finally) about the Eighth Air Force . Also from Spielberg and Hanks. The third in a trilogy with "The Pacific".
Verowak, in the attack on Foye, they were ordered to remove their "Screaming Eagles" patch which set different divisions apart. The reason being is that the Germans knew who Easy Company was and knew they were experienced and hardened. The Army wanted the Germans to NOT know who they were fighting that day. It's so crazy how known they were for their resilience and bravery.
Seeing the stolen art reminds me of a movie. I would like to recommend that you watch Monuments Men. It’s about a division dedicated to locating and recovering stolen art.
Jim Campbell, the man who "took a shot" for Babe in Holland, had recently received the dreaded "Dear John" from his wife. "I don't know what's going to happen to our baby," he said to Babe.
It would be worthwhile to watch the 1946 film “The Best Years of Our Lives.” It covers the return home for 3 veterans, and won 8 Oscars. Some of the cast and crew were veterans and gave it a lot of authenticity.
By all means, re-watch the series. You'll be amazed how much more you catch. But before you do, watch Ron Livingston's Boot Camp Diary and a couple behind the scenes/ making of BOB videos out there. It will greatly expand your appreciation of just how good this series is.
When I was growing up in the 60s it seemed like every one of my father's friends were World War II veterans, Korean War veterans or even both. They never said anything to their wives but did talk when they were alone. I was young boy and I guess I was allowed to hear what they said. Mostly the things they saw and the funny things that happened. They never shared the bad things. Later when I had my war experience I understood why.
I've heard about the bond that occurs in combat, but I've never experienced it in my life. I've had friends who I've been through tough times with. For some, we're so close they could call on my anytime day or night and I'm there, no questions asked. But that still pales in comparison. A part of me wishes I could know the bond they share, and part of me is thankful that I don't.
You might want to watch “The Fighting Sullivans” from 1944. It is the story of 5 brothers who's motto was “We Fight Together” They all joined the Navy and served on the USS Juno early in the war. It is a true story. Spoiler Alert! It is the basis of the policy in “Saving Private Ryan”
Every year i go back with my mom to a military graveyard near the village i grew up, and every year she makes me say thank you to the grave of the American soldier who died of his wounds in the family farm i grew up in. True heroes. for anyone interested, this is the place :) th-cam.com/video/KZxHmA5vCEA/w-d-xo.html
My last of us friend! Well this is an eleven out of ten for me ma’am because it’s still my favorite ! But if you want another 10/10 series that’s one season for me besides the last of us then I’d say most definitely check out The Queen’s Gambit but if you’re into multiple seasons then Daredevil the series with Charlie Cox is the closest to a perfect series I believe I’ve seen. And if you’re looking for films try out The Intouchables not to be confused with The Untouchables with Sean Connery and Kevin Costner or maybe try 12 angry men!
It was very nice to watch the series again through your eyes as well as observe your sincere and honest reactions. You’ve come this far, so I wholeheartedly recommend “Band of Brothers: Ron Livingston’s Complete Bootcamp Video Diary “ th-cam.com/video/Ju11gCisOL4/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared It’s a funny, enlightening and personal look behind the scenes at the actors as they made “Band of Brothers”. Enjoy.
There are quite a few people in the US who might benefit to watch this series, so they realize how they're disrespecting the sacrifice these men made to fight against the very ideals they vote for today.
I have no words, this was simply heartwarming and heartbreaking to see. What other TV series do you rate as 10/10?

You should watch the Pacific next
A series I loved was "From the Earth to the Moon" Also produced by Tom Hanks. Not as heart wrenching as Band of Brothers but still a well done mini series.
My mother was Dutch and lived in Heerlen, Holand, just seven miles from the first German town captured by the Americans in WW2. They were so happy when the Americans arrived and freed them. When the Battle of the Bulge was getting ready to start and the Americans started heading south to Belgium, it was all snow and my family and others took everything they had white and gave it to the troops so they could blend in. My aunt was married in a parachute that she made a wedding dress out of. My father landed in the first wave at Omaha Beach. I would love for you to react to "We Were Soldiers".
If you liked We Were Soldiers you might like Danger Close. Came out recently about the Battle of Long Tan.
@@goodshipkaraboudjan I like Aussie Vietnam War movies==they often use very authentic 'kit'; 'Odd Angry Shot' had an actual RPD light machinegun in it, and 'Danger' had what looked like an SG43 LMG, complete with it's wheeled carriage.
That's actually incredible. Love that story about your aunt.
"Greater love hath no man than this, to lay his life down for his friends" John 15:13
The look on Babe Heffron's face when he said his buddy took the round meant for him- Survivor's guilt is brutal.
The Greatest Generation indeed.
My neighbors father was a survivor of the Utah Beach landing. He and his brother-in-law where survivors. I remember being at Barbeque with him when that subject was.brought up. He turned to his brother-in - law.and said Joe, I don't know how we survived that landing.
Seeing old men cry will make me cry 100% of the time. These guys are the saviors of the free world. No amount of respect we can give will ever be enough
This is a classic show. Brave men giving their lives for our freedom. My uncle Fred stormed the beaches of Normandy and they scored a major Victory. Sgt. Fred Raymond Livingstone led his troops to victory. He survived the war but passed away in 1979 from colon cancer. He was my hero. He told me to hang on to my dreams. I will never forget him.
I work in a care home for residents with dementia and I've always found it so helpful to find out about their youth. Many remember the war as children. Their recent memories are gone but if you talk to them about air raids or rationing they remember it all. Powerful memories never die and neither do the emotions associated with them. In this series and 'The Pacific' we see those memories bringing emotions back so strongly. Many could not talk about it to anyone who wasn't there but as they reached their later years they started to tell their stories to make sure that the world knew.
It really is fascinating, you must have heard such a wide range of stories! I'm glad that you are able to be there for them and help them
Thank you for your thoughtful covering this wonderful companion documentary.
Continue to embrace and nurture your curiosity. It shows by how reflective and imaginative you are..especially as seen in your reactions.
I wish I had enough time to learn everything!! :D
Yes, War is Hell. It was rumored that “Old Blood n Guts” General George S Patton himself, while visiting a Concentration Camp, walked behind a building to throw up; Twice.
I haven’t seen a TH-cam reactor that exfoliates as much good vibes as you! Awesome channel!
Not sure I would have used “exfoliates”! LOL “Exude” may have been a better term… 🤷🏼♂️
@@Ernwaldo perhaps not the best choice of words, I’m still fine with exfoliated good vibes though. The flakes still lift my soul!
@@72tadrian65 , right on. Hope you keep doing you. No skin off my teeth.
(See what I did there? 😉)
Sad that they are all gone now. Very thankful this exists.
It's pretty incredible to think ww2 started just over 85 years ago!
@@VerowakReacts It really is.
Hello, it's good to see the many reactors have found B.o.B. and are spreading the story years after the initial release. Long may their story be told.
Wow!! I’ve never seen this!!!!! Thank you so very much for bringing this to my attention!
These stories are rough but need to be told for us and especially for them! Took me some years of talking about my personal events during numerous deployments to be able to “live” well again.
The documentary is available on TH-cam! I'm glad to hear that you were able to open up and it helped you "live" well again!! I agree, the stories need to be told so we have a better chance at not repeating history
The actor who played Lewis Nixon made a “video diary” about the 2 week training period before filming began. It is on TH-cam and features the cast getting into their characters, bonding together as well as going through physical training. It is really a great watch.
To see an old man cry kills me, to think what they witnessed, beautiful documentary
Beautiful reaction, thank you for doing this video! many of us appreciate it :)
Thank you for seeing this all the way through. I will always have nothing but respect for the men and women who fought to rid the world of fascism.
Thank you! Seeing the younger generation appreciate this series is heart warming and seeing how it moved you also moves me. I am a 21 year Army Vet. I am pushing 60 and remember the people I served with better than my own family. I met theses guys while I was still serving, on the promotional tour. I was moved by your reactions to this. While I was stationed in Germany prior to my first combat tour, I got a chance to visit Dachau and it moved me to my core. Thank you again for your reaction and your words!
Another great video! Awed when I think of the sacrifices that have been made. At 25:47 made me think of the concept of sonder, the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own-populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness. My brain always explodes when I think about that
The man with the young daughter who talks about them visiting the Normandy graveyard is Tipper, they guy who gets hit by the shell while he's in the store and is comforted by Liebgott.
Wasn't he also the guy navigating for Sobel during the fence incident?
We rightly hold them up as heroes, sometimes forgetting that they were human, vulnerable to injury, death and profound grief for their buddies.
A lot of the old footage and especially the old photos are actually of the men of Easy Co. There are lots of videos of both the men and the actors on TH-cam and are well worth looking up which also includes reunions with the actors and special anniversary meetings which also include some of the writers, directors and producers. Black Sky radio did a lot of interviews with the cast. There are also lots of books about Easy Co., including biographies/auto-biographies by some of the men, including - Winters, 'Buck' Compton, Webster, Guth, Speirs, Malarkey, 'Shifty' Powers and a joint one by Guarnere & 'Babe' Heffron. And if you haven't already, read the 'Band of Brothers' book by Stephen Ambrose. Ps, great reactions from you. All the best.
Lipton reciting the speech from Henry V always gets me.
Both my grandparents were in the war. My dads dad fought in the British army in a tank in North Africa, up though Italy. He always talked about the fun things they did on their off time, until one day when he was visiting he just out of no where started talking. He talked about how it really was, how they were shelled and attacked from the air, crossing the straights of Messina in landing craft as mortars blew up ships around them. I remember he said they were getting attacked by German tanks and they called in Allied air support and the. His voice cracks “the damn yanks hit us.” US planes accidentally hit his column and killed a bunch of friends. I was around 13 so I think he figured I was old enough to hear it. My dad hadn’t even heard the stories. He talked for about 8 hours straight and that was it, never spoke about it again. My moms dad was in the US navy. Late in the war he caught pneumonia and had to be hospitalized missing his ship leaving port. That ship was the USS Indianapolis, torpedoed by a Japanese sub and most of the crew were eaten by sharks before rescue.
My Great Grandfather was also in North Africa with the 2nd AIF, he was a Sergeant doing tank recovery, repairing them and sending them back out. Nasty job for all involved in Armoured units. Never met the man but apparently they'd use sand to clear out what remained of the crews then patched them up and sent them back out. He ended up being assigned as a driver on captured Italian tanks at Tobruk once they were cut off. They painted big Kangaroos on the side to prevent friendly fire and the gunners were artillerymen while the commanders were just the closest NCO. His youngest son, my Grandfather served in Borneo as a teenager in 44 and 45. Never ever spoke about it to anyone. Very lucky escape for your Grandfather on the Indianapolis for sure, absolute horror story.
A wonderful reaction indeed. This woman is such a keeper......
In the late 2000s I saw an old man with a huge medal rack including the Distinguished Flying Cross on his coat doing book signings outside of a shop. He was an ex RAAF Navigator that served with Bomber Command and at the time I was a teenager fresh out of high school starting off my pilots license so we had a wonderful chat. I bought he book, got it signed and he wished me the best with flying. After reading the book I was blown away he flew over 100+ raids due to the fact the RAF didn't have tour limits and his squadron had 55% killed over the course of the war. You'd never pick it from how humble those men are who fought in WW2. He went into probably a bit too much detail on his conquests with the local ladies in the UK but anyway he was such a nice humble bloke and I'm glad I got to speak with him.
Yes. This series is highly re-watchable. All the main 'characters' are there from the beginning and you'll notice a lot of things things you missed before.
Sadly the last of Easy Company has passed on now. I wonder if the families still hold reunions. I would think that would be a wonderful thing.
I do know that the cast members have annual reunions. They formed a strong bond during the actor boot camp and the filming.
Thanks for doing this. Excellent doc. My granddad was a bomber pilot (mixed british and canadian crew in Lancaster bomber) and ended up POW and was death marched from Poland. He survived and was never the same according to my mum and my aunt. He died when I was 5 and always seemed so sweet. Now I have his honors (pins and so forth) in a box in my room. Wish I'd known him better. He was 19 when he signed up.
The significance of wearing the eagle patch on the right sleeve is that it signifies you served in combat in that unit. Non combat members of the unit wear the patch on their left sleeve. The American Cemetery in The Netherlands has a waiting list for Dutch families to receive the grave of an allied soldier to care for. They learn everything about "their" soldier they can, and communicate with his family. If the family comes to visit the grave, they are likely to be housed with the Dutch family. To them, it is a huge debt of honor to care for a soldier's grave. Many of the Band of Brothers actors have continued the tradition of annual reunions. As with Easy's reunions, they are by invitation only. Most of the actors formed strong friendships with the soldier they portrayed, and their families.
"Old people have a lot of history"....When an older person dies, it's like a library burned down.
You have my mindset, and heart too V. Always, for as long as I can remember, I've always looked at old people the same as you.... 'what is their story'. Now I'm one of them and I've come to realize that my story is insane. I think back through the years and all that's happened (to me and in the world), and it's jarring. The perspective in old age is so radically different than even being a young adult, it's impossible to measure. It's remarkable to walk with the perspective and history of a senior citizen (I'm on the doorstep, but it doesn't matter). It is priceless.
Well said. I actually *am* a senior citizen now, and when you first come to the realization that you’re “old” in the eyes of most people, it can be jarring. Bit of a badge of honor, also. I certainly am amazed sometimes that I made it this long with some of my “stories”… 😉
25:15 a little over a third of them died on D-Day when the company HQ plane went down with 17 paratroopers on board (and 5 crew), plus a couple more who died in the fights that same day.
The way Shifty's kids talked about him...damn, My grandfather was in the Navy (can still look down at my keys and see his dog tag) and was in North Africa in '42 and in the Pacific in '44, and, like the vets of Easy, he didn't talk about it for a long time. He started to, maybe 4-5 years before he passed in '01, talk about it all. Would have loved to have heard more before he was gone, but I've heard enough and am proud and grateful for him and everyone else who did what they did.
I live in far NW South Carolina near the GA and NC lines. Currahee Mountain just outside of Toccoa, GA is about 40 miles south west of where I live. I’ve been many times. It’s a special place.
So glad you got to watch this. Its an amazing story. The men of Easy Company and all those who served our country our heroes, even if they would never say it. You are correct, when you watch the series a second time you will catch many small details. I have watched this series mutliple times over the years and I still find new things in each rewatching. Keep up the great work.
Those men really need to be remembered every day we make decisions. When we complain about something.. think about being bombed holding the line in the battle of the bulge. It was really heart wrenching seeing babe as an old man going back to the forest of the battle of the bulge remembering everything and yet not shedding a tear.. I really need to remember never to feel sorry for myself when I go through my own shit in times of peace.
I've been watching Band of Brothers for over 20 years now, I still get emotional. Best movie ever.
So funny Guarnere was still a badass troublemaker until old age 😂😂
Not only did they sustain one of the highest casualty rates of the war in Europe, they also inflicted one of the highest casualty rates of the war in Europe.
"Old people have a lot of history." You know, being an old person, I think about that, too. If you take a moment to look back, you go, "Huh. I've had a life." And then you wonder what's yet to come (I'm kind of rooting for our future AI overlords). My mom is still kicking, and she tells me what it was like on the homefront in WWII. She's had a life, too. I've heard about it many, many (many) times 🙂. (Loads of old folk are eager to share.) And what's the difference between old and young? Perspective. The world always belongs to the young because as they are the ones who will have to live in the aftermath of what they've created, they have a bigger stake in what it's to be. Sometimes the older ones can offer some hard-won experience, good and bad, to get there (e.g. try not to let things get to a point where you have to jump out of a perfectly good airplane to land behind enemy lines).
I imagine what stories seniors have to tell too. Funny you said that
One of my uncles fought in the Battle of the Bulge. He was in St Vith with a mortar crew and was captured. He spend the rest of the war in a German POW camp.
Wow. So many reactors are begged by their followers to watch this after going through BAND OF BROTHERS, and most don't. Now I'm subscribing and going back through your reactions to this series.
I got a kick out of you saying you have to watch this again. I had the same reaction watching it for the first time. I had to go to a friend's house every week because I didn't have HBO. I bought the DVD set as soon as it came out and I've lost count of the times I've watched the series over the years.
I'm so glad you reacted to this documentary. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your reaction to it. Well done, young lady.
PS: I'm old, and I have plenty of stories.
Babe singing at the end brings me such a feeling of melancholy
Its the same with many professions, like say a fireman...you may feel they are a hero for running into that building to save someone but for them it's just doing their job - to them it's their colleague that went in and never cane out, that sacrificed their life trying to save people that is the true hero.
Have to watch The Pacific now
This was the “Greatest Generation” of the history of the world with their experiences of witnessing and being involved with the most horrific dehumanizing events. So, naturally, they couldn’t share their stories with anyone who wasn’t there. Being a baby boomer, whenever some of these men would tell me “War Is Hell”, I knew one of their experiences , funny or horrific, was about to be shared. We all knew not to ask questions concerning their experiences but rather let these brave men speak when they were willing.
At the Evergreen Air & Space Museum, here in Oregon, I got to see Malarkey several times, as well as Compton, Guarnere, and some others. I got to sit next to Forrest Guth at a dinner and he was such a nice guy and it was great to hear about the things he experieced! He was one of the originals but the show just couldn't portray everyone, so they had to leave out many, like him.
Wow. Sounds like you had some fabulous experiences. I own the BoB box set that includes this documentary. Upon my first viewing I also wondered why more of the vets weren’t portrayed. I have seen many reactors comment they couldn’t initially keep up with all the names. Was a tough choice, I’m sure, to limit the men named, but also understandable.
@@Ernwaldo Yeah! Especially in war movies/series, you've often got guys all in the same type of uniform and wearing helmets, and that makes it so much harder to keep up with who is who, even when it's been limited to a fraction of the guys!
Also, I believe a lot of the guys weren't really interested at first- and you can't blame them- you never know how Hollywood will portray people- even as well as they did here, there were things like wanting to make Winters seem "tougher" by using profanity, etc. but thankfully they were convinced to portray him as he really was, which to me is far better than the stereotypical portrayals we get.
@@RogCBrand I absolutely hear you & agree. There was usually an immense reticence among veterans to speak about their experiences, much less be “recognized” for what they did. Especially immortalized on film. My dad joined the USN in the summer of ‘41 & spent his entire enlistment at sea in the Pacific. All three of his brothers also served, along with an uncle & *aunt* from my mother’s side of my family. None were exactly forthcoming with their experiences, especially any bad ones. It was usually just the amusing things. That’s what makes Band of Brothers, the book & series (and this documentary), pretty damn special, imho.
I am a Vietnam combat veteran. I am still friends with my old squad members. I remember joining my company in the bush. I remember my first combat assault in a helicopter and how dry my mouth was and how wet my palms where. I vividly recall my first firefight. I do not go to my company reunions. I dont want to relive it.
Welcome Home and thank you for your service.
Dick winters was quoted as saying that only when he looked out and saw the sheer amount of planes and ships sailing for Normandy did he appreciate and fully understand and realize how evil and monstrous Hitler was. He was a special form of evil.
The young woman that talked about her dad was talking about the guy that had half his face blown off. He was the one Liebgott helped out at Carentan.
Thank you for sharing this, many reactors don't or make it Patreon exclusive.😊
Just remember. There are ALOT of vets that have seen more combat, spent longer away in a war zone than Easy Company. June44-Apr45. About 10 months. I have been and know lots of people that have 2 to even 5 times longer. Yet, most people do not understand this. They dismiss us as angry etc. Try and fit back in to society. At least in WW2 10% of people would have a similar experience. Now it is less than 1%. I do not have the time or the crayons to explain more. F me.
Hi, Miss Verowak. Glad you were able to watch this entertaining, informative and moving documentary. A second watch (or multiple!) of the series will allow you to catch things you missed, or didn’t necessarily understand, upon your initial viewing. Definitely recommend. Loved hearing all your thoughts toward the end of this video. You’re brilliant! Thanks for sharing. ❤️
Your comment about wanting to see it again is very understandable. I watch the series at least twice a year.
Thanks for doing this one 🙂
Thank you for reacting to this episode, not all reactors show this. See you on You Tube.
To address your statement about wanting to hear the stories of old people. I think that it is almost instinctual to want to know about the past. We are taught to look to the future, which we should. But, looking forward should not be at the expense of forgetting our past. Ignorance of the past means that we will make the same mistakes over and over again. It is only in my life that the respect of our elders and their knowledge has been devalued to the point of irrelevance. To reach higher we need a foundation in the past to stand on. "If I have seen farther than others, it was because I was standing on the shoulders of giants." Sir Isaac Newton
None. Band of Brothers is in a category of its own. Still after 23 years, it holds it own against anything to day. The special effects on this still hold up today without the use of too much CGI. This story is about the Greatest Generation of our time who unselfishly went to fight for our freedom we enjoy today. I personally don't think we could expect that of people today. Different Times, Different People.
Thank you to everyone for no spoilers during the series or ruining the greatest reveal in history. Speaking of documentary style...you really need to see Nix's (Ron Livingston's) Personal video diary of their experience training for this. It makes you appreciate this and them even more somehow. It's pretty amazing when actors playing heroes have reunions of their own...As epic as D-Day was, it was a drop in the bucket in the War relatively speaking. Not taking anything away from these Men in any way. Watch "The Fallen of World War 2" for perspective of this tragedy.
We would not have these interviews if not for Winters. Most of the veterans from Easy company never wanted to talk about the war because of the trauma. But they respected Winters so much that he was able to convince them to tell their stories.
As another pointed out, other generations have done as much but sadly unrecognized. Vietnam veterans were even treated badly by the greatest generation, not even allowed at VFW posts (Veterans of Foreign Wars) for years. Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans burdened by an almost 20 year war, with lots serving multiple years in active war zones and less than .45% of the population serving so no real outside people realize what happened.
So, we still have plenty like the greatest generation however no one is looking in the same place.
Have you seen "The Best Years of Our Lives"? It is a 1946 movie about the adjust to life after the war.
Can you imagine how hard it would be to return to the spot where you lost your leg...and saw so many of the friends you had made were killed. Thank you for a wonderful review. If you are aware, Hanks/Spielberg also made The Pacific (good...but I didn't think it was "as good" as BoB). But what you might not be aware of is the 3rd and final chapter of their WW2 "trilogy" starts on Friday on Apple TV with the series Masters of the Air...which covers those who fought in the 8th Army Air Corp in the European Theater. As someone who loves aviation history I'm so looking forward to it. I really hope you'll get a chance to review it in the future. Thank you so much again. I'm so glad I found your channel.
I loved your reaction to this
Thank you! 🤩😢
Uh, everytime I hear about that glass on top of the fence I get shivers, cause we have an old wall in our garden that has the same feautre. I learned the hard way not to touch the top of that wall when I was a kid.
There is a TH-cam video of the men of Easy Co photos from that time period along with photos of the actors that portrayed them called "The Real Band Of Brothers (Men of Easy Company and Band of Brothers),The resemblance is uncanny.Also a different one "A tribute to Band of Brothers Veterans"
You, ma’am, are a God Damn Treasure.
So it's kinda Fales on the highest Casualty rates as other units were higher and spent more time in combat esp the 505th /504th/509th/551st ect....( A co, 551st came out of the battle of the bulge with just 1 officer and 7 men)
2:57 mark i was in E/506th Reenacted and we spent a lot of time with all the Troopers you see here . We gave Maj Winters that giudion that is framed on the wall behind him back in the late 90's as a gift.
7;23 mark so me and Bill hit it off and every WW2 living history event he would find me "Hey Kid, let's have a beer" and it was during the 50th anniversary of the Bulge were we had a late night drunk talk Grunt to Grunt about killing and he told me the story on how he really earned his nickname "Wild Bill" in Normandy and yes he did alot of killing.
GOD watching this makes me miss these scallywags sitting around the barrack's telling stories heckling each other drinking Babe singing his songs Bill bitching about his singing the Maj drinking his soda smiling watching us all get wrecked on Prop Blast
13:27 mark Babe would always share that store and we would do a toast and to others all night long .
So to this day the Families & Friends continue to hold the reunions last year it was in Rhode Island.
They really did hate being called heroes, they would always correct people by saying the real heroes never came home .
25:32 mark LOL oh he would sing that song every year at the battle of the bulge reenactment
Those reunions let them get their feelings off of their chests. They were lucky in that respect. My dad never talked about his experiences, and I think it kept eating at him his whole life.
I'll watch anything that comes up about "Band of Brothers", I'll never get enough. And now "Masters of the Air" is coming out (finally) about the Eighth Air Force . Also from Spielberg and Hanks. The third in a trilogy with "The Pacific".
Verowak, in the attack on Foye, they were ordered to remove their "Screaming Eagles" patch which set different divisions apart. The reason being is that the Germans knew who Easy Company was and knew they were experienced and hardened. The Army wanted the Germans to NOT know who they were fighting that day. It's so crazy how known they were for their resilience and bravery.
Seeing the stolen art reminds me of a movie. I would like to recommend that you watch Monuments Men. It’s about a division dedicated to locating and recovering stolen art.
There's a vlog about the actors military training for the series made by Ron Livingston (Nixon), i think you gonna like it
Jim Campbell, the man who "took a shot" for Babe in Holland, had recently received the dreaded "Dear John" from his wife. "I don't know what's going to happen to our baby," he said to Babe.
It would be worthwhile to watch the 1946 film “The Best Years of Our Lives.” It covers the return home for 3 veterans, and won 8 Oscars. Some of the cast and crew were veterans and gave it a lot of authenticity.
By all means, re-watch the series. You'll be amazed how much more you catch. But before you do, watch Ron Livingston's Boot Camp Diary and a couple behind the scenes/ making of BOB videos out there. It will greatly expand your appreciation of just how good this series is.
When I was growing up in the 60s it seemed like every one of my father's friends were World War II veterans, Korean War veterans or even both. They never said anything to their wives but did talk when they were alone. I was young boy and I guess I was allowed to hear what they said. Mostly the things they saw and the funny things that happened. They never shared the bad things. Later when I had my war experience I understood why.
I've heard about the bond that occurs in combat, but I've never experienced it in my life.
I've had friends who I've been through tough times with. For some, we're so close they could call on my anytime day or night and I'm there, no questions asked. But that still pales in comparison. A part of me wishes I could know the bond they share, and part of me is thankful that I don't.
You might want to watch “The Fighting Sullivans” from 1944. It is the story of 5 brothers who's motto was “We Fight Together” They all joined the Navy and served on the USS Juno early in the war. It is a true story.
Spoiler Alert!
It is the basis of the policy in “Saving Private Ryan”
Have you looked into The Pacific?
I have! It's on Patreon (full length version only). It hasn't been edited for TH-cam yet though :(
I don't know if you're going to do Reaction for The Pacific but I will be here for it if you do
Every year i go back with my mom to a military graveyard near the village i grew up, and every year she makes me say thank you to the grave of the American soldier who died of his wounds in the family farm i grew up in. True heroes. for anyone interested, this is the place :) th-cam.com/video/KZxHmA5vCEA/w-d-xo.html
And the pistol Maj. Winters received when the German officer surrendered to him shall never be fired, until the end of time.
Since your done with Band of Brothers you should watch the "sequel" The Pacific
Shame they don't make a series like this about Canadians.
True heroes.
Bravo.
This interview was left out: th-cam.com/video/W-V6OAtgr6c/w-d-xo.html It confirms some of the rumors about Speirs.
My last of us friend! Well this is an eleven out of ten for me ma’am because it’s still my favorite ! But if you want another 10/10 series that’s one season for me besides the last of us then I’d say most definitely check out The Queen’s Gambit but if you’re into multiple seasons then Daredevil the series with Charlie Cox is the closest to a perfect series I believe I’ve seen. And if you’re looking for films try out The Intouchables not to be confused with The Untouchables with Sean Connery and Kevin Costner or maybe try 12 angry men!
They don't make 'em like that any more.
If we needed such a force today, we'd be screwed.
What happened to Hagenau?
It was very nice to watch the series again through your eyes as well as observe your sincere and honest reactions.
You’ve come this far, so I wholeheartedly recommend “Band of Brothers: Ron Livingston’s Complete Bootcamp Video Diary “
th-cam.com/video/Ju11gCisOL4/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
It’s a funny, enlightening and personal look behind the scenes at the actors as they made “Band of Brothers”.
Enjoy.
26:00...IF you're lucky - you might end up as an OLD person 😛
You're just natural. So many men like that
Have you watched "Interstellar"? If not, I highly recommend.
There are quite a few people in the US who might benefit to watch this series, so they realize how they're disrespecting the sacrifice these men made to fight against the very ideals they vote for today.
Tour of Duty season 1
And M*A*S*H* comes close.
And if you are interested for more of market garden, check out the movie.
A Bridge too Far.
Please watch the pacific because it is about the USA’s fight with the Japanese during world war 2
These guys are rolling in their graves. November 6, 2024.
