Shifty’s reasoning for not shooting the deer has nothing to do with aim or missing the moment. The truth behind it is that he didn’t want to kill anymore. The war had taken everything out of him in this respect. He was a sharpshooter, but with the European campaign of the war over, Shifty knew at the time that he would be heading to fight in the Pacific and that he wasn’t a killer. The deer represented the peace and innocence that Shifty wanted to salvage, and which was at the heart of who he really was.
Aside from Shifty’s reaction to the deer, the moment spoke volumes about the other Easy Company men present at the time as well. There’s a degree of concentration on Shifty’s face as he raises his weapon to shoot the deer, but within that look is also one of reluctance. When he ends up not shooting the animal, the other soldiers groan and complain, criticizing that the army will be relieved to be rid of Shifty now that the war is over. Once again, this initial reaction is not a genuine one. The soldiers - whether they would admit it or not, are very much on the same page as Shifty. (Screen Rant)

What a paragraphic way to say Shifty had PTSD.
@@tedhubertcrusio372 Reluctance in killing and straight up PTSD are not the same thing.
My father who grew up in the north woods of Maine and hunted to eat. He never that i know of killed a human directly since he was P47 Mechanic. After the war he hunted once and never did it again. Me growing up could never have toy guns. When asked why, "I have seen enough dead things caused by guns in my life"
@@suspendius6624hey you calm down...
Why would a 101st airborne being going to pacific?

@@huskyemerald4372It’s the same dude, lmao
Bruh imagine the fellowship with a detachment of the 506th PIR
From the BoB book, at this stage the paratroopers hunted deer for food: There were deer at a lower level, hundreds of them, as this was a prime hunting area for the European aristocracy. The 101st was at the end of the pipeline in the distribution of food. Everyone from the ports of Cherbourg and Le Havre right on down the pipeline had a crack at the food first, and they all had civilian girlfriends to take care of and a flourishing black market to tempt them. So not enough food was getting to the Alps. The paratroopers went out in hunting parties for deer; venison became a staple in the diet. Private Freeman got a Browning shotgun and supplemented the venison with quail and other birds.
The more ya know thanks 🙏
The purposeful but unrealistic non-fraternization policy which Allied military governors tried to impose on their troops in 1945, was so severe, that it was forbidden to speak to German civilians in any manner other than questions about military information, and even "glad-handing" (shaking hands) with German men was prohibited. It didn't take long for lonely GIs and widowed or just plain young and attractive frauleins to get acquainted, however. So compelling were these urges that eventually the hardline policy went unenforced.
Browning shotgun?

My father got back from the war in the Pacific. And gave away all his guns and stopped hunting. He just didn't want to do it anymore. Most of my uncles still hunted, but my father just didn't see any reason to anymore.
Eugene Sledge talks about that in his book. Just didn't seem fair hunting something that couldn't even fight back. He was done with killing.
It sounds silly, but even as a medic with a scout troop, I quit hunting after my first tour. I don't need the food and I cant stand unnecessary killing anymore. I even take spiders outside if there in the house instead of squashing them.
He had already hunted the hardest game, humans.
Compleatly understandable.
I dont have any military relatives or personal experiences regarding that but if studying military history has taught me anything is that war takes its toll on soldiers who come back home alive.
Even if they don't come back with PTSD they still want to move on from it and become a regular human being again. Poor Chris Kyle thought taking veterans to shoot as a way for managing stress was a good idea until it bit him in the ass, all due respect.
After the adrenaline high of hunting men in war, the hunting of animals probably seemed too boring to him.
No way they would get that close to a deer while talking, without it hearing them
Youd be surprised. They can be curious.
Euro deer are built different.
Deer don’t run based on sound. They run based on smell. If you’re downwind from a deer, you can come crashing through the brush loud as a squirrel.
Deer hear things all the time. See things too.
What they don’t do is smell things.
I see them all the time standing 20 yards off the Interstate as I pass by at 75 mph. Not the smartest animals.
Walked right up on all kinds of game moving to the getting place just blabbing away, passing “refreshments” around everyone shouldered up, come around a twist/tree & bang, hello Mr freezer filler if it’s a legal area for our tags, finished up 3 day hunts in hours more then a couple times in Alaska, couple times with wind at our back which kinda shoots the smell theory down that I actually do believe is real
some context: germany already lost, but war still continue with japanese. So part of unit will be demobilise, so more points = more chances to be back home asap
What're the points about?
@@SiiriCresseypoints is like there tally sheet for what theyve been thru to get home. Purple hearts, other medals, campaigns, jumps. Just shows senority the best they can with millions of soldiers all trying to get home.
@@casdpasd3032 Is that an official thing? Doesn't sound like it.
@@SiiriCresseyit is. it was official. why would he just lie about that
@@chrisvibz4753 Unofficial ≠ untrue.
My dad was US Army 1942-1947, he taught me how to shoot with a Crossman bb gun that looked like a 1911. The target was just circles on paper. He would never point at a human shaped target after he got home. He would wake us up barking orders in the middle of the night. That War stayed with him until he passed in 1980.
My grandfather fought in the Bulge. One story he told me involved him and his buddies killing a deer. They brought it back to camp but someone told them they'd better get rid of it or they would be in serious trouble with the company commander.
Their camp was next to a German POW camp, so they brought the deer over and gave it to them, telling them to dispose of the remains afterwards. Pop said they had that deer butchered, in a pot, and the hide and bones buried very quickly.
What was the company commander's problem?
@@durdenswrath I dunno. Pop didn't tell many stories about the war anyhow, and I was too young to question him about it.
As an aside I was thinking about it, my grandfather would have been 20 during DDay and 21 by the Battle of the Bulge and when he returned home.
Yeah, this didn't happen. Stop lying on the internet for clout. The only Bulge your grandfather was involved in was his beer belly.
@@durdenswrath Most likely a unit that was stationed in France, considering it an allied nation it'd be poaching. (I'd imagine wildlife numbers were way down due to both ww1 and ww2. Which would make keeping the deer population above a certain level)
@@_S0me__0ne Not that far back they nearly drove the bison extinct just from guys shooting them for kicks. It's typical upper level diplomacy anyway that it's "the kings game" and they didn't need anymore incidents than were avoidable.
My dad was an avid Hunter before he went to Vietnam in 1967.. my father wouldn't even so much as hurta fly when he got home.. he was like that until the day he died 9 years ago
May He Rest In Paradise
I am sorry for your loss.
It's a beautiful moment for Shifty, but it's a good one for Perconte as well. You can tell that he's on edge, and he's probably going to stay on edge for a long time. PTSD wasn't something that was understood very well back then and I'm sure a lot of those guys would be dealing with it for a long time.
I grew up surrounded by WWII veterans. There was a reason why VFW and American Legion halls were nothing but glorified taverns.
Just like Eugene Sledge when he refuses to hunt anymore. Shifty didn't shoot the deer because he's had enough killing.
Which is interesting because most vets I know come back and get really into hunting and fishing.
@@jameshill8493 Yup, it's a different reaction. But they were very different wars and circumstances.
What I found touching about Eugene Sledge was that although he still loved the outdoors, he couldn't bear to hunt any more. His father suggested birdwatching instead, which was how Sledge ended up in his career as an ornithology professor.
Just read some of the comments here. Lot of vets come back and never hunt again. I grew up in a big fishing hub, and there were a lot of veteran events where some of the attendees just went on the boat to relax, not actually fish. @@jameshill8493
Sledge hammer call of duty
Shifty was such a beautiful soul. ❤
Met him a few times before he made his last jump and passed on. A genuinely good guy.
Shifty wins the lottery to go home, he gets injured in a crash. In the hospital he was robbed of all his money, and war souvenirs. He had a string of very bad luck for some time. Poor guy.
Hard not to, when it's only your name on the list.
Bull looked a little nervous when he said theyd feed em for a week lmao
A lot of truth to that. When I got back from my last deployment I couldn't pull the trigger either. Was an avid hunter before I left. I still go hunting and the wife makes fun of me for never bringing anything back.
The calm of the woods can be very therapeutic.
My dad was infantry in Nam and was into hunting as a young teen in rural GA. He came back, sold his rifles and until he died he hated that I was so into guns. I understand him
It’s weird how war impacts people differently. My great uncle went to Nam and when he came back he was still an avid hunter and encouraged his kids far more than before to start collecting firearms.
I never gonna understand Americans love for weapons. How can you love something which is literally meant to kill?
@@maxpower975There are Various reasons really. The engineering and history behind the evolution of firearms technology. Armed revolution being the beginning of my fine country obviously leading to a strong anti government sentiment and thus the right to overthrow an unjust tyrannical government if we should need to do so. The right of man to defend himself and others from those who would wish to do harm. Hunting in times of material poverty when food is scarce and the need to provide for one’s family becomes necessary to their survival. Shooting sports in which a man can test his abilities against his fellows to see whom has the better discipline. Notice how none of those are the want to kill people but instead defend one’s life and property from threats foreign and domestic. To provide a man with a tool that’s been custom engineered to have various important uses throughout his life. That’s why we love guns. They’re the tool that helps to keeps our minds at ease and helps us provide for those we love.
Hows that username go over in the gun afficionado circles?
@@ianh1504 I can’t say I understand your meaning behind that. The question of my chosen username has never come up as a subject of ridicule or relevance in the conversations I have had within the Firearms community.
No Purple Hearts, never was Injured. Because your name is Shifty Powers and you're the strongest Army Recon Operator that ever lived. And that's a fact.
My dad would get me up sometimes when there was snow to go rabbit tracking but everytime we jumped one he couldn't shoot it.
He was there and a POW captured on the first day of the BoB
That deer had absolutely zero situational awareness

Shifty's role was criminally underplayed in the series. He was probably the finest man in that company, and that's second only to how fine of a soldier he was.
The deer shies away away a minimal sound, ignoring the loud jabbering of the men moments before. :)
It's not a documentary mate
It seriously bothers me that men who campaigned through all of Europe and WON were later redeployed to the Pacific. Feels so wrong.
By the time they got there the Pacific War was long over 🤷. WW2 veterans were also brought back to serve in the Korean War 5 years later - even more messed up.
@@michaelwong6050 This had often bothered me. Men who survived WW2 were shipped to perish in Korea. War is a drug. You survive one, then you think you are invincible.
Welcome to the well oiled war machine. The military-industrial complex is always hungry for more souls.
The 101st never went to Japan during ww2
They were never redeployed. The Japanese surrendered before they do.
I watch this series every year
same. For me, I watch it around every Holiday season (November-December)
I feel sorry for u LOL
Same. It's one of the best pieces of media ever made. I was disappointed by the sequel though, called The Pacific. I've never rewatched the Pacific, maybe I should give it another try.
@duffman18 really? Why? The pacific is overall a better, more realistic series. Maybe because the pacific theater was more brutal and unforgiving?
@@fabioa.8008 the characters were extremely bland and it was hard to connect with them. The characters were the best part of Band of Brothers, they all felt like real people with real emotions going through extremely stressful, terrible situations, but also some situations that were great and brought them happiness, it was like an ancient Greek story or something, where a hero goes on a life changing adventure that's full of ups and downs and leaves them a different, changed person, except for dozens of characters all at once instead of just one. But then in The Pacific everyone was just wooden and barely there, they didn't feel like actual people at all. It was extremely difficult to even remember their names. Everybody in BoB, even the least used characters who only appear in a couple of scenes, are extremely memorable and they stay with you years and years after watching it, and there are dozens of characters like that. The Pacific didn't even have 1 character like that. I don't know what went with it exactly, whether it was about writing, acting, or directing (or all 3, or even something else entirely). It was just a chore to get through, unlike BoB where, whenever I do a new watchthrough, I end up binging the entirety of it in one go even if I never intended to do so.
But yeah this is just what I remember. Maybe I'll like it more, now. It's been so many years since the one time I watched it. So I hope I'll like it more now than I did back then.
He’s tired of having to kill
I knew a few veitnam vets that wouldnt hunt anymore. One of them took the time to say "why do you wanna shoot the deer for, he didn't do anything. You wanna kill something go shoot a person they're the ones fucking everything up."
Alot of combat vets from back then seem to share that opinion.
Because I'm not a cannibal.

@@DayMan.. oh I 100% agree, Im an avid hunter and hate buying meat at the store, it's overpriced and low quality compared to anything you can get yourself.
@lostwizardcat9910 I’ve always wanted to go hunting, but never had the chance. Only my uncle-in-law hunts and I’d love to bag a nice buck some day, I love venison. Sadly, the rest of my family is pretty much against it. I feel like it would be a good experience for any man to have, but maybe I’m just an ape at heart.
Worst hunters ever.
He didn't want to kill anymore
I'm not talking about him missing. I'm talking about an the loud ass crap yammering beforehand. No way you could make that much noise and get within 50 yards of a deer.
@@vedinthorn I always thought this scene meant they were probably more interested in spending some free time than doing real hunting.
yea as a german hunter let me tell you you aint walking up to a redstag with 6 men yapping and screaming all over the woods hahahaha
Weinerschniztel get me a beer
I just watched this for the first time this year incredible show
VE Day is May 8th, the war would still rage on in the Pacific until mid August, post war europe needs troops still they don't need all the troops and war reels and stories of brutal fighting from the Pacific would not be lost on the men, they know their one of the units that will be transfered to the Pacific to fight the Japanese, eventually especially if the invasion of the Japanese mainland is going to happen. The stress of having survived a war and knowing you don't have enough "points" based on various factors like medals and record to go home must have sucked and to go through that for a few months never knowing if tomorrow is the day the brass decides to ship you off to some island in the pacific to fight another bloody battle.
I imagine they'd want the 101st and 82nd to be the vanguard of Operation Downfall, if it actually happened. Normandy all over again, except against a much more fanatical enemy.
Just a bunch of brothers
Can we have a 'woooooow' tally started 😂
Shifty mustve been the most humble man there ever was.
Me and the boys talking about our exam scores:
As much as those other idiots are loudmouths, there’s no chance that that deer didn’t runoff before they got that close

The correct Webster for saying the word “injured”when he rejoined the unit after being wounded.
Back when Abraham was in the army long before the outbreak😁
thank you! i was wondering why the ginger haired dude looked familiar lol
Just watched this for the 10th or 15th time. Still a great series
There were no one year tours of duty. Soldiers fought until they were killed, injured, or the war ended. Sometimes, for four or five years, moving from the Pacific to Europe. Brutal.
Let him go on purpose.
Went a whole war and never got a scratch
Except after winning the "points lottery" and getting sent home, he was seriously injured in a bad accident on his way home and spent months in the hospital. It was months before he actually got to go home.
Poor guy missed a shift and crashed
@@AlanRoehrich9651 Some irony in that. A Toccoa man, a D-Day vet, Market Garden vet, Bastogne vet, not a scratch. But in peacetime on his way home getting injured in a traffic accident
A Frenchmen vet from WW1and WW2 died not long after WW2 after falling in the sidewalk and hitting his head on it. It never fails to amaze me how our bodies can withstand so much damage sometimes and, sometimes, just dies.
They're being loud affff, ain't no way they sneaking up on a deer 🤣
I literally watch this show with my dad at least once a year. We watched it for the first time when I was 4 (2004), so we watched it, give it or take, 32 times already. My dad is in the army, so he LOVES this show, war movies, etc… still haven’t watched this year! Time to do it again🫡
No animal would go near these guys at the rate they’re talking
A mom joke would work here.
What do "points" mean in this case?
points in this case was like a quote to go back home, the company is hiring
At the end of the war in Europe, they couldn't just send everybody home at once. At the same time, there was a plan to invade Japan and it was thought that many of the veterans of Europe would need to go to Japan. Because of these two reasons, they developed a "point system" do determine who deserved to go home first. In general, it was meant to send home people that had been in Europe longer and seen more combat home earlier, but unfortunately for some people, like Shifty here, he got lucky from an injury standpoint and didn't earn as enough points. Luckily, as we know now, an invasion of Japan was never required.
@@zackbobby5550luckily the invasion on the Japan was never required 💀
For context it was nuked by the americano. Capital of Japano Nagasaki and its main city Hiroshima received their portion of so called Manheeten Rizz. In a form of tactical nuke. Billions died. Millions lost homes but ultimately it was good because lives were saved and Japano surrendered
@torzhentorzhen344 billions died?
The nukes killed like a quarter million people, where are you getting billions from.
@@torzhentorzhen344 hoping you're joking because everything you wrote was wrong.
Japan's capital was Tokyo which was firebombed (using regular old bombs). There wasn't even a billion people in all of Japan, and the total death casualties of the nukes didn't even reach a million. Also tactical nukes were not invented yet. I recommend searching up what is a tactical nuke because I don't think you know what it is.
I guess abraham really was a soldier before the zombie apocalypse.

Hunting probably feels pointless and petty after combat, compared to the nazis he killed the deer didnt deserve to die
Still the greatest series or movie ive ever watched pertaining to the us military.
MASH: "Are you challenging me?"
2 stories from my time in Nam .Was there towards the end of this war.( 71-72). Luckily nobody in my helicopter company got wounded but when a door gunner got his leg burned from a hot casing from his door M60. As a joke they but him in for a purple heart and some how it got approved and he got a purple heart. Guys broke his balls when he came into the club by clapping and yelling out make way for the war hero. One day a door gunner located a deer in a large opening and somehow sent a radio message to the mess hall that he was bringing a deer back for super. He fired think it was 500 tounds ( full ammo box ) at the deer and never hit it. After they landed the pilot told him he didn't want him as a door gunner. After thst we called him dead eye dick the deer killer.
My Dad served and was in the removal of the troops off Normandy
He said they had to wait on the beaches for all types of ships to come and get them. While waiting they were being shot at from the shores the air etc
When it was your turn you had to line up in a single file holding your rifle above your head ( mustn’t get your rifle wet) then stand in line taking a step forward every time a space came free
If the soldier in front of you was shot and went down you had to step over him
You weren’t safe even when you got to the ships as they were being fired on and bombed from the air
My fathers best friend was in front of him. They’d grown up together in a tiny village in Wales where there weren’t even proper roads. Only spoke Welsh English was a second language and had never been out of the village before being called up. He got shot and my dad had to step over him
My dad was involved in D Day too. He got shot three times
He was in hospital waiting to be taken down to have his arm amputated because Drs couldn’t clear this one infection
An American Dr was walking down the ward he saw my dads arm. Asked a nurse for tweezers ripped the scab off and the bullet shot out together with all the infection
6 weeks later my dad’s been released brought back up to strength and shipped to Burma
He had such awful awful nightmares
He married my mum within weeks of being demobbed but she almost divorced him because she woke up choking one night
He’d been having an awful nightmare that he was back in Burma and was choking a jap to death
He got better though. I think she must have become a light sleeper and elbowed him awake if he sounded as if he was starting a nightmare
It was common to kill a jap by choking them to death as it was quiet and it didn’t give your position away. Of course if only one was there
Anyway they were married for over 50 years before my mum siblings and I lost him to a heart attack
He was in my eyes the greatest father ever and my hero even though he kept his medals in a drawer too much of a reminder he said
While in the hospital he was notified that his younger brother of just 18 had been killed on his first mission
We were never allowed to say his name he was devastated
I think you’ve guessed my dad was British and fought in the British army
However, we were allies then as we are today and the UK and the US and all the other countries who joined us gave their all
They gave their all for us and our freedom
To a man they gave their all for our freedom
When I look at the state of our Country today I cry
I wonder why they bothered
Then I think of my dad with Pride and the millions of ppl like him they did it for us for our freedom
And we must always always protect what they fought for
Bull was looking like why dont i just eat you?
The fact they even saw a bull being that loud
My father-in-law's regiment was attached to the 101st the last few weeks of the war, going through the Battle of the Ruhr Pocket with them. He talked the great deer hunt and, after his death, I inherited his private pictures. Some of forced labor camps and some of shot-up deer hanging all over. The smaller red deer did not take well with 30-06 and .45ACP FMJ rounds. It seems the game warden was not happy, forgetting he lost the war. 😅 you'll find some pictures on the 96th Infantry Division's website. They were rushed up to get to Japan but diverted to the Philippines to fight Japanese troops still not surrendering after the war ended.

Oh shit, Abraham!
I knew him before Walking Dead. This was the first series I knew him
Yes
is that abraham from twd
Lol look at Abraham before TWD
One time when Stephen Ambrose was visiting Dick Winters at his place in PA, he noticed that a swan was injured on the property. He suggested to Winters that he should shoot it. Winters gave a stern “no”. I always thought that Ambrose created this scene based on that interaction with Winters.
Reminds me a the movie “Deer Hunter”
But where are the hats?
P47 pilot Quentin C. Aanenson was home in the states on leave and went hunting like he'd done his entire life. He shot some type of critter but after that he said he never hunted again. The boys just got sick of death.
Abraham was in this???
Yeah, give it a watch!
Never knew Abraham fought in WWII. That explains, how he was able to survive the zombie apocalypse for so long.🤔
What's he doing in the army¿? I thought he was a space pilot.... 🤔💭
😂
В этой сцене Шифти посетовал на то, что за всю войну он не получил ни одного ранения. Ни одного "Пурпурного Сердца", плюс не хватает очков для демобилизации.
Но что было дальше? Он получил "подарок от Тейлора", и на полпути до корабля, отплывающего в Штаты, он попал в аварию - сотрясение мозга, сломана рука и тазовая кость.
Быть может, не стоило об этом думать вслух?
In this scene, Shifty complained that he had not received a single injury during the entire war. Not a single Purple Heart, plus not enough points for demobilization.
But what happened next? He received a "gift from Taylor," and halfway to the ship sailing to the States, he had an accident - concussion, broken arm and pelvic bone.
...Maybe shouldn't have thought about it out loud.
I read that book band of brothers with Col. Or Cap Winters. Good book.
'Make a complaint'
No mate, he should be being arrested for assault.
They would not have walked up on that deer
They are talking and walking and the deer didn’t notice but the deer notice the trigger.

Can someone please explain to me the point system.. I'm assuming how many missions?
At the end of the war in Europe, they couldn't just send everybody home at once. At the same time, there was a plan to invade Japan and it was thought that many of the veterans of Europe would need to go to Japan. Because of these two reasons, they developed a "point system" do determine who deserved to go home first. In general, it was meant to send home people that had been in Europe longer and seen more combat home earlier, but unfortunately for some people, like Shifty here, he got lucky from an injury standpoint and didn't earn as enough points. Luckily, as we know now, an invasion of Japan was never required.
@@zackbobby5550 Aha thanks for the response :)
if it was based on missions shift would have been home ages ago, he was one of the few Easy company guys who fought through most of the war and never got hurt.
Just like the soldier in "The Pacific" (sorry, not sure of the name of the character) and he's back home on the farm and he's unable to hunt anymore. Save vibe as here. War is HELL.
I asked someone once about having an M1 for hunting purposes.
I recall them saying they thought an M1 for hunting deer was a poor choice, because it was so powerful the round would just pass straight through the deer cleanly and unless you hit something vital, it would run.
Wouldnt know though. Dont own and M1 and am not a hunter lol
Yep.
The ironic thing is the soldiers who just checked out and dont wanna kill anything any more would make the best generals. I mean if you wanted to make the world a better place, if you'd prefer a barren crater-pocked hellscape bereft of life then stick with thenother guys i guess.
imagine shooting an m1 with no ear protection and no eye protection
Could someone enlighten me as to what the "15 points" was about? Points for a medal or promotion? Thanks!
Points to go home. It was 85 but later they lowered it to 50 I think. That way the soilders who had it the worst would get to go home first.
Damn, how many sergeants did they have in one rifle squad?
Please don’t take this the wrong way but after hunting/fighting the enemy for a hunter. When you come back home or just to hunt animals it is never the same.
When I was 7 or 8 years old, my Aunt saw my Austin 3:16 shirt at my Grandparents and completely walked into it with "Oh, like John 3:16? I like that". I was a smart kid. I had no clue what John 3:16 was but just said "yup" and walked away giggling to myself.
