Thank you for watching the video, It means a lot to me .
I will leave this pinned message here to REMIND everyone that i do not have TELEGRAM and there is no GIVEAWAY. Those you see are bot scams . Keep yourself safe and know that I would not ask for your info. ❤ ❤
I love your monumental anger and outrage over bad things and big hearted sensitivity for the good things
I had the good fortune to have met Major Winters at a military base, we shared a table in a cafe, and got to chatting. He asked me about my family in the War. My late father served in the Air Force during WWII and Korea, and I had a grandfather who was a doughboy in WWI. Winters was gracious; he told me my father was a hero and that I should be proud to have been his son. I'll never forget that conversation
Your reaction to the end was so touching and sweet. These men really were the greatest generation.
Or.....the most cruel and asshole Generation ! ...it´s a matter of opinion.
I served in a company of heros......gets me Every.Single.Time. Great reaction. ❤❤❤❤
Winters leading Nix into Goering's wine cellar is my favorite moment in the series
The old man on the bike and that are two of my favorites for sure
The music that plays when Nix sees the contents of the cellar is very similar to the music that plays when Winters sees the expired paratrooper in the tree on D-Day.
Bisscute, you have a wonderful heart. I don’t know about other countries, but the U.S. did a lot to take care of her veterans (and still does although you could say there’s more we could do). The “G.I. Bill” helped returning soldiers attend universities and trade schools so they could get educations and good jobs. Veterans also got special guaranteed loans to buy homes, and for government jobs (like postmen, police, and workers in city, state, and national offices) that required them to pass a test veterans automatically got extra points on their scores. We don’t have free health care in the U.S. but the veterans administration does run hospitals any vet can use, and I believe they’re free but I could be wrong. World War 2 was my dad’s war. We call the people of that time “the greatest generation”.
Times are different now, in the 50's 60's and 70's there was a fair wage, good retirement, and decent insurance provided by the companies. Everything people fought for and unions were just given away after that time and became two income households, 401K, and in many cases no insurance or companies make sure you don't work 40 hours a week so you don't get insurance.
My father was in the Italian Army during the turbulent Cuban Missile Crisis era. I just knew him as my father and a man that drove trucks and ran equipment for public works. Growing up in the 1970s, my neighbors and my friends' parents were World War I, World War II, Korea, and Vietnam veterans. They were regular people I loved. They worked at factories, one was an engineer, another was a police officer in my town, and another worked at the shipyards. I remember them trading stories with my father about their time in the military and wartime. When some died, I went to their funerals. I would see them in the coffin with the flag neatly folded by them and I thought about what they experienced in their lives. Recently, I lost another neighbor from my hometown. I remember him being the laid-back, gentle giant that could always make one laugh. After I read his obituary, I learned that he wasn't just a Vietnam vet. He was much more. He was with Army Special Forces and was an advisor. However, when I think back, they were all just regular guys that were around me as I grew up into adulthood.
Actually, Winters did take the German Colonials side arm. Winters noticed that it had never been fired. So, he kept it and made sure that it was never fired, till the day he died.
He noticed it was never fired after he took the sidearm. I don't know why the show had him not take it.
Yup, there's a bit of artistic license in this series. For the most part, it's done very well though and some mistakes were just that, and not intentional. Although the show depicting him telling the guy to keep his sidearm was certainly intentional.
We have to go through this every time. Winters accepted many surrenders. The pistol you speak of was specifically from a Major, not a Colonel. In fact, Winters sent home over two dozen weapons, many of them Lugers.
He had several presented to him. He accepted than just one surrender.
I always figured that many German unit commanders surrendered separately and Winters took the surrender of a few of them. That he took the sidearm of one and let another keep his. But I don't know that for sure.
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and tears in this beautiful series. We all appreciate you! And as always: Hold Fast My Friends!
You and your reaction are amazing and you got me choked up when you talked about the recognition of the veterans after the war. With a subject like this I don't think anyone would hold it against you to cry. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to watch these with you
Bisscute, your reaction to this great series is the best I have ever seen, love how much you enjoyed it
I really enjoyed your beautiful, authentic reaction to this finale. Thank you.
This is my fave episode of entire aamzing series. The German Generals speech is so impressive. My grandfather served pretty much 1941-144 as medic. While he survived the war, war never left him. He commit suicide 1947 after alochol stopped working for nightmares. It was difficult time for small country rebuilding itself. U.S. took care of veteran's much better after war. It took till 1957 before first national aid and support union was formed after war to help veterans rehabilitation and help covering hospital and such cost. Before that our Veteran's were pretty much alone as degreed by Soviet union 1944 all unions and groups dedicating helping and supporting combat veteran's were facist and were forced to close down.
One of the intresting fact during surrender. 1000 soldiers Waffen SS Latvija, were re-trained by U.S. soldiers , given U.S. arms and uniforms and were used to guard War Criminals in Nurnberg War Crimes tribunal. (why and why batlic Legions were treated separate unit is intresting fact itself for another time) After Nurnberg, Legion members would guard U.S. Headqurters in Berlin and provide security during Berlin Airlift to startegic facilities
This episode always catch-up every person's tears. So glad to have you here! Wars should not happen anymore.😌
That generation is almost all but gone. There is a reason why we call them The Greatest Generation. Their sacrifice is still felt today.
We Stand Alone Together and Ron Livingston's Video Diary are excellent follow ups to the series. The former includes all the interviews and more with the actual veterans and Ron's video is the ten day basic training the actors took to learn to portray paratroopers.
Have you seen the interview of Major Winters done by a state representative of Pennsylvania that was done right around the same time as the interviews on Band of Brothers??
I think it's about 50 to 60 minutes long and he really goes into detail about several of the moments on Band of Brothers including when he shot that German soldier that smiled at him in episode 5!! If you haven't seen it you can find it on TH-cam just Google in Major Winters interview, the thumbnail will show him in the background that he's in in most of the interviews in the documentary!!!
Hi BIsscute! Thank you for you reactions. Here in Finland, we call our country father's land, or fatherland - Isänmaa.
My father was a war veteran (he used light machine gun) who fought against the Soviet army in the Continuation War, including the delay battles of the Karelian Isthmus. He was then 19 years old. He died in a car accident in 1972 the age of 48. I was 9 years old at the time.
THANKS for the TH-cam re-upload of your reaction !!
winters is the real "CAPTAIN AMERICA"
💯
An excellent excellent review of this amazing series. Thank you. Thank you for sharing your heartfelt emotions.
I appreciate your comments on how we treat our veterans. I'm reminded of one of the final scenes in Lord of the Rings where the 4 Hobbits are sitting in the pub having a mug. Everyone is wondering around them totally ignoring them...not even beginning to understand (yes fiction) what they did. I fear that is far too often how our veterans today are treated. May I never miss an opportunity to thank them for their service. Peace
I must have heard that last line from Winters 100 times. Still gets me every single time.
Band of brothers is one of my favorites war series!
Totally enjoy your reaction!
Great series. The documentary is definitely worth a watch. Always remember the horrors of war are toned down in order to be able to broadcast the series. The reality was far worse.
Fun Fact: Biss, most of the men from Easy Company did very well financially after the war. Such as John Martin, he became a millionaire from his construction company. Lipton wasnt "just" a executive, but a high ranking one.
Even the men that did "small" jobs did very well.
Its stated in the book this was made from that they all did well.
It has been fun going through B.o.B with you. You really seemed to understand the war from the soldiers POV.
The miniseries "Pacific" concerns the Pacific war in WWII. It is a good series as well but very different than B.o.B. Although it is very well made I found it very hard to get through. It follows (I think) three fellows through the war years, before and after. Very gritty.
A more relaxed series you might consider is "Firefly" it was a space cowboy show that was canceled by the network in less than a year but still has a very vocal and dedicated following.
Thanks for saying that vets deserve more. It's not just US soldiers, it's everywhere. My granddad (England) came back to nothing... in fact he flew Lancaster bombers and he and his Canadian/British crew were scapegoats... as if they weren't acting under orders. As if their bombing runs weren't ordered by higher ups. He was also a POW and deathmarched through Europe after he was shot down. He never recovered from the dual shock of the POW experience and then coming home to a country that suddenly vilified him. He died when I was 4 years old and my mum and her sister have spent a good amount of time trying to get those crews recognized for what they did. It wasn't pretty, it was total war, but my granddad was about 22-23 and following orders. In 2013.... almost 40 years after they followed orders, the crews of the bombers were finally accepted and honored. My granddad died 26 years before that. So he died bitter, ashamed and unrecognized. Veteran support is a fucking sham in most places. I hope vets reading this are supported well, but I'm worried that the cycle of blame keeps going.
Two weeks ago and yesterday, interviews with Ross McCall (Joe Liebgott) and James Madio (Frank Perconte) were released. The interviews were filmed at the real hotel in Zell am See that was portrayed in this episode and features Ross and James looking back on the series 23 years after it was filmed. I think you will love it.

James Madio (Perconte): th-cam.com/video/-RdgDvKdl8o/w-d-xo.html
I liked your comments...these heroes. Are just like all of us. They settled into their life post war. It can be difficult but many enjoyed just blending into daily life without all the life and death they lived every day....Great series and love your emotions ....Mahalo from the Big Island of Hawaii....Tony
Hi Biss...when you recover from Band of Brothers, definitely check out The Pacific. It's a sequel to this series but follows the US Marine Corps instead and their fight against the Imperial Japanese Army. It's also based on real people and events, and also produced by Tom Hanks and Spielberg. They are also working on a similar series that will be released in the future that follows the US Army Air Force (which was the precursor to the US Air Force).
The Air Force one was supposed to have been released awhile ago. It was on some obscure pay for view channel like Apple tv or something but I don't think it ever came out?
I personally don't think the Pacific is quit as good as Band of Brothers but thats like saying "Band" is a 10 and the Pacific is a 9. It's a rougher watch than Band. But it does a better job of showing the emotional toll the war had on them. Definitely worth the watch.
Also check out both "Flags of Our Fathers", and "Letters From Iwo Jima". Both are directed by Clint Eastwood.
Masters of the Air is the title. Was supposed to come out in spring, but currently set to come out "later in 2023". Maybe we'll get it finally. Memphis Belle came out in 1990, about time for another good bomber movie.
I liked "Letters" way better than "Flags."@@aTofuJunkie
I also recommend The Pacific miniseries. The narrative is a bit different, as it basically focuses on a handful of individuals instead of a company or platoon like "BOB".
You did a brilliant job with your reactions and you are very entertaining yourself. You come across as a lovely person with a great sense of humour and some of your sarcastic remarks were great. You certainly made me laugh at times and brightened my day. All the best to you, you lovely young lady. ❤ 😉 👍
"You did a brilliant job with your reactions"
To react is not something you "do", it just happens when new information is gained.
All animals react instinctive to new information, be it something falling from a shelf or a bird landing, it's natural, it's survival.
If a person has to "work" on a reaction it's fake.. That's called acting.
I think the word pedantic would describe you very well. I'm sure everyone else knows what i mean.
I have no idea how your channel came up in my timeline, but I decided to watch your reaction to the first episode, and I ended up watching all of them with you. You’re so cool, cute, funny and smart, I’ll definitely be watching more. Love from Brazil 🇧🇷 ❤
The sport being played at the end is baseball. Very popular in North America and Japan, seldom played in Europe.
I got to go to Austria once and saw some of these sights. We didn’t go up to the top of the mountain, but I could see the eagles nest from down below.
They did, in fact, film in the actual Eagle's Nest. The only difference was the balcony windows are actually enclosed, so they had to digitally remove them.
Easy wasn't the first to reach the Eagles' nest either. I'm not sure why they made it to look like that.
It was a different time then. They didn't sign up for any hype, recognition, or medals. They signed up because they felt it was the right thing to do, and after experiencing that hell, the ones that did make it home were super happy to go back to work driving that cab, working that construction job, teaching kids in school. But it affected them all...and back then everyone brushed it off, including them. PTSD wasn't even thought of yet. I'd like to add, as of July last year (2022), there are no surviving members of E Co, 2nd Bn, 506th PIR, 101st. "Currahee!"
Love your reaction, very genueine
We say fatherland in Denmark too.
Also:
Sweden
Norway
Finland
Ukraine (Slava)
Ireland
Scotland

Netherlands
Switzerland
Austria
Greece
Czech Republic
South Africa
And quite a few more.
great video I see it in hospital when I can best regards from 🇺🇾 Uruguay ✌️🤪
Hi bliss I would also recommend "jo jo rabbit" which is also set in the WW2 era which is comedy/drama and also " what we do in the shadows" this is a mockumentary about vampires living and flatting together in todays society.both are directed by tiaka waititi well recommend.
Note about your comment about the treatment of veterans: After WWII, the US Government set up a program called "The GI Bill", which provided housing assistance, college tuition, and other benefits to returning servicemen (it's been credited with creating the postwar American middle class). It was mostly discontinued in 1956, which is one of the reasons veterans from later conflicts had a harder time reentering civilian life.
I don't think Perconte working as a postman is a sad outcome; after he'd seen what he'd seen and done what he'd done, I'd think that an ordinary, predictable job like that would have been just the thing for him.
18:58 Incorrect, Finland says it so also 😉It's in the "lyrics"
The Pacific -time!
24:35 Ah FFDP - War is the answer (Listen to the one version with George W. Bush intro). Their best song.
Hi Biss There is a sequel to Band Of Brothers done by Tom Hank's and Steven Spielberg aswell called The Pacific.. you follow some characters again with alot of noticeable actors who portray the real life soldier's.. hopefully you'll give that a watch.. seeing you really enjoyed Band Of Brothers 😊
The Pacific is a great show, but I think it would be too dark for Biss.
@miguelpineiros1567 No not at all.. I think she could handle it fine, She seems strong 💪 it's something everyone should see to remind us all where we came from. Makes you appreciate life.. if you look at the odds of us being born it's astronomical.. from being conceived which wouldn't of happened if it wasn't for your great great etc grand parents who alot of them fought in those wars, If any of them died you wouldn't be here today.
Love your reaction. To have an idea of what life was like when these men came home from the war you need to watch "the best years of our life" it's an older movie but a very good one.
Yes, that is a great movie. I highly recommend it.
Watching this episode I realized that you spoke German. You are a very sweet young lady and I enjoyed all of your reactions.
You handled this series really well Biss. It's a tough one to get through but also important as it reminds us of what those brave people went through. When you feel you are able to, for sure check The Pacific. It's essentially a spin-off series but primarily covers the war against Japan that was fought in that area.
In Belgium (Flanders) and in the Netherlands we also say father land (vaderland) ;-)
All of these men were humble before they were drafted or enlisted and they continue their humility after the war that's why you see them returned to their jobs.
They were honored by their country through the what's called the the GI program with the GI Bill and they were also honored by their family and friends.
Bis, I absolutely understand your feeling that better care should be taken of veterans and, as a veteran, I thank you for that sentiment.
No nation has ever done enough to support veterans in all of world history.
However, the US passed some of the most progressive legislation in support of veterans. For instance, if you were (or are) an honorably discharged veteran, The Montgomery GI Bill provided practically free education for veterans and the definition of ‘education’ is unbelievably broad.
An Army buddy of mine was going to go, I swear on my daughter’s life, to Clown College and the Army was going to pay for it. The Army was going to pay for him to learn to be a clown.
Veterans could (and can) go to trade schools for really high paying jobs like welders, plumbers, electricians. You can go to beauty school or barber school, all on the Government’s dime.
Did these men struggle collectively and individually with PTSD at a time when the answer for PTSD society-wide was, “Don’t talk about it!”
Now, you also expressed that more should have been done to acknowledge what they did and I agree with you, generally. However, you want to allow a veteran to not have to be reminded of those times if he/she doesn’t want to.
For some veterans, getting a medal or commendation for what in the veteran’s mind is murder and being applauded for it by the public is emotionally and mentally disconcerting.
Already watched this but letting this new upload play to appease the algorithm. 👍
TH-cam made her re-do multiple copyright uploads for this episode, so the original comments got wiped
Easy Company is the most ironic and iconic name in military history. From D-DAY all the way to Hitler's Eagle's Nest, there was nothing Easy about it. I never want things I love to end, but you want the suffering to end for these Men, and the peace to begin.The German Field Marshall's speech is actually what ties the entire concept of of the series together unexpectedly...No matter what side you were on you were bleeding, just because you have to fight the War doesn't mean you wanted it. I implore you to see "We Stand Alone Together and Ron Livingstons Bootcamp Diary. "Were you a hero in the War Grandpa? Grandpa says no, but I served in a company of heroes" Near tears every time from Major Winters words. Currahee! ♠
You can still have lunch at the Eagles Nest to this day actually.
I always felt that the German commanders speech to his men got to Liebgott, he was so full of hate towards all Germans after finding out what the camps had done to the Jewish people that after hearing the officers speech that not all Germans were bad, they were doing & went through exactly what he did.
Just a solider fighting because his country told him too & they had been through hell too.
Yeah, especially given that Liebgott wasn't jewish, he was roman catholic.
@@Iymarra really? How come he goes on about marrying a Jewish girl & says to that officer in the hut about “what you did to my people”?
@@gildo101rossi Creative liberty. I believe his mother was jewish, but he was raised RC. The same creative liberty with winters returning the officer's gun. In reality, he kept it (and kept it unfired, as it had never been used)
You had a great reaction to this series. You need to watch The Best Years of Our Lives made in 1946 about 3 soldiers lives after they get back home and how the war affected them after they came home.
*From the National WW2 Museum:*
The 7th Infantry Regiment of the US 3rd Infantry Division got there first at about 1600 on the afternoon of May 4. They took Berchtesgaden without firing a shot. While the 7th Regiment fanned out through town, a platoon advanced up the mountain to Obersalzberg. When they arrived at the Berghof, Hitler’s home, they discovered the entire area was heavily damaged by a bombing raid conducted by the RAF on April 25.
...
The French 2nd Armored Division arrived a little later that afternoon. Early the next morning, the French made the trek all the way up to the Eagle’s Nest, which was untouched by Allied bombing, and made the most fantastic discovery of all: a wine cellar that contained an estimated half million bottles of the finest wine, champagne, and cognac imaginable. Amongst the cache were thousands of bottles of Chateau Lafite Rothschild, one of the most expensive wines in the world. In 2020, buying a bottle of late vintage Chateau Lafite Rothschild would set you back about $1000.
...
Last to arrive to the party was the 101st Airborne; they arrived in Berchtesgaden on the morning of May 5. They may have been last, but they were there to stay the longest. The 2nd Battalion, 506th PIR was the lead element of the 101st to arrive, and the officers and men began by securing the finest billets in town. Col. Sink, commander of the 506th, met with the commanding officer of the 7th Infantry Regiment, 3rd ID, and informed him that the 101st was relieving them. SHAEF ordered the 3rd ID men in Berchtesgaden back to their area of operations in Salzburg, Austria.
The "Eagle's Nest" is still there.
I do not know if they were allowed to film in it though.
The Pacific and Chernobyl are both great series.
Yellowstone Biss. YELLOWSTONE!!! An extension of Nuremberg kiddo. Speirs!!!! Baseball is the best. It's the Vietnam vets that really got the shaft. Everytime I meet one a make sure say "welcome home"
Shifty Powers lived about 10 miles from me and I never knew until he'd already passed.
Clincho was an old coal mining community, I wish I could have met him.
I love this series & The Pacific I have both and watch them several times a year
something that quizzes me: in italian we say "patria" which means "land of the fathers" . but we say also "madrepatria" that means "mother land of the fathers".
AMAZING SERIES, i can watch it all the time literally lol. Hope they make more series like this and "The Pacific".
loved you great reaction
While I understand the feeling that these brave men deserved special treatment for the rest of their lives after the war, most of them looked at returning to their normal home lives as their reward. Doing a regular job in their hometown and such being what they felt they needed.
The acting in 10 Cloverfield Lane is fantastic. Definitely worth checking out.
Beautiful reaction, thank you for sharing your time & thoughts with us😊. Looking forward to seeing your take on the documentary. [Have a suggestion for a new series, many have suggested "The Pacific" which I'm sure you'll get too, but "The Man in the High Castle" is an excellent series that I've yet see anyone reaction to. Hope you take a chance on it, it's an Amazon original.]
26:33 was.... interesting 🤣🤣
TH-cam made her re-do multiple copyright uploads for this episode
I'm adding "loot goblin" to my vocabulary.
Hate it when TH-cam waits a week to copyright strike. Most comments won't be returning. ✌️
It is :(
There's a glitch in the matrix..im pretty sure I've seen this before 😅

After the War the service men did get, unlike today, a good deal of recognition and government support they enacted the GI Bill, with many benefits still available today. But starting in the mid seventies the Government and the Military, namely Republicans began to cut services and health support. They began farming out services and cost cutting government support.
They eventually found an alternate route to the eagle's nest. Speirs did shoot a drunk Sargent on D day for being belligerent and disobeying a direct order. The Sargent was a loose cannon. Speirs tried living down that day for decades. Winters tried for years to get Speirs to come to their reunions.
You must react to the accompanying documentary to hear so much more from the men!! It gives great closure/context on these events and their postwar lives from the men themselves.
They all wanted to return home to a life of peace! This is what they said.
Floyd Craver was the name of the drunken private from Idle Company. He received a dishonourable discharge for the murders of Hauptmann Edward Altacher and Major R.G. Watkin of British Intelligence, and the attempted murder of Staff Sergeant Chuck Grant of Easy Company. Side note: Limey is a slang term the Yanks used to describe British people. Floyd did receive a life sentence as well, but that was rescinded. Because in the July of '87, he had a head on collision with a truck on his motorcycle whilst under the influence of alcohol. He had four daughters and a son named Steven, who apparently is (or maybe was) no better than his father.
Grant survived the injury he sustained but he passed away back in '84, three years before Craver died.
This series is something that all freedom loving people should experience once in their lives... also the scream at the very end was interesting, but probably needed after 10 episodes of this
I was reading the comments after she faded out, and saw yours. I just thought I had missed it... and about ten seconds later it happened! 😄
I was like "WHAT THE HELL?!"
Madalina had to do several copyright re-uploads for this one episode - the others were edited fine. This just slipped through at the end somehow
really enjoyed your reaction to this series...the best reaction ever...where is the suppressing fire...he is a psycho but like him...classic
Best tv show ever, hands down.
You are so much to watch. Enjoy your next series or movie.
Nah I'd say it's "faderland" in Sweden as well but perhaps even more so "fosterland".
So the land you've been fostered in...
You really, *REALLY* should watch The Pacific next. It's also a HBO miniseries based on true events in WW2 like Band of Brothers. Only it follows the Marines's fight against Japan
Thank you Biss. ❤
I could have sworn we already finished this
I'm sure of it. I knew how Biss was going to react before she did in every scene. I wonder if something happened to the original upload?
TH-cam made her re-do multiple copyright uploads for this episode, so the original comments got wiped
@@dstrong86bluecoffee I was seriously questioning my sanity.
@@920WASHBURN Madalina did multiple re-uploads for this to try to satisfy TH-cam (probably without any specific advice) -- I think she deserves more appreciation given 2 TH-cam channels and twitch -- A lot of her Music subscribers need to subscribe to her Movies too (her personality is better than most people)
Before the 20th century, officers were almost all nobles and would buy their own weapons and horses, not the cheap stuff that the army gives to the regular soldiers. When soldiers surrender, they generally have to give away all their weapons, but sometimes officers were allowed to keep their own expensive weapons they had bought themselves with their own money and which might be inherited from a father or uncle. It shows that you trust them to not start any more fights and attack you now that they have given their word as gentlemen that they have accepted defeat and surrendered.
In World War 2, pretty much all weapons would be issues by the army, but the gesture still remained.
Random scream at the very end WTF lol 😂
Sometimes, a boring, normal life is a greater reward than wealth.
I cried manly tears at 22:47...
Is this a re-upload? I swear I've seen this already.
Yes Sadly the first one had some isssues with copyright
You definitely need to watch the documentary that follow the show .. you’ll remember parts of the series from their stories
I'm not Patreon yet, but she did say she might put it there for these special supporters
Now it’s time to watch the pacific. The Marine version of this against the Japanese.
Sweden is also referred to as"fatherland"
From the Earth to the Moon 🌝🌙🌝🌙🌝🌙🌝🌙🌝🌙🌝🌙
Bis, I think you misunderstood the scene where the three soldiers went to the old man’s house.
The German speaking GI was Liebgott. Liebgott was Jewish and had just come from a concentration camp.
His orders that day was to either arrest or kill that old man.
That old man was a camp commandant.
Whoever sent Liebgott, the guy Winters made drop all his ammo save one bullet when he escorted 11 prisoners, wouldn’t have expected the commandant to come back alive.
He was actually not Jewish. His platoon members just assumed he was so. His family claimed he was raised Roman Catholic. He also raised his children Roman Catholic.
Allowing German officers to keep their sidearms was a standing order issued by the Supreme Allied Commander, General Dwight D. Eisenhower.
but this didn't happen, in reality
You MUST show your reaction to "We Stand Alone, Together"- Band of Brothers documentary
Those WWII and Korean vets were the police, judges, wirkers, teachers i grew up looking at. They didn't talk about it. They made ni alibis and were slow to accept any. Do, or do not, but don't complain and don't cop a plea and don't apologize. Be. A. Man.
Random scream at the end. Ok. 26:27
Madalina had to do several copyright re-uploads for this one episode - the others were edited fine. This just slipped through at the end somehow
yeah that was creepy lol
Please watch the movie “Only The Brave.” It’s based on a true story of a fire fighting “Hot Shot” crew from my home state here in Arizona. It’s a great movie. You have to watch the credits, it’s arguably the best part.
26:34 Is that really why this episode re-uploaded?
Madalina had to do several copyright re-uploads for this one episode - the others were edited fine. This just slipped through at the end somehow
Do episode 11 the full interviews with the soldiers. Now on to "The Pacific" also done by Tom Hanks and Stephen Spielberg. A different kind of war in the Pacific against a fanatical enemy who preferred to die rather than surrender.
True Detective Season 1 is a great show... if you want another War story, you should watch The Pacific, but be warned: it's even more brutal than Band of Brothers.
I’ll probably get to it after a bit. Taking a small break from war related movies and show since it takes a toll but will come back for them
True Detective Season I is quite possibly the best television series I have ever watched. The writing is just phenomenal and the acting is the same. I second the recommendation. It also makes for great reaction videos and I never get tired of watching people discover it.
