a5c7b9f00b The story of Easy Company of the U.S. Army 101st Airborne Division, and their mission in World War II Europe, from Operation Overlord, through V-J Day.
This is the story of "E" Easy Company, 506th Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division from their initial training starting in 1942 to the end of World War II. They parachuted behind enemy lines in the early hours of D-Day in support of the landings at Utah beach, participated in the liberation of Carentan and again parachuted into action during Operation Market Garden. They also liberated a concentration camp and were the first to enter Hitler's mountain retreat in Berchtesgaden. A fascinating tale of comradeship that is, in the end, a tale of ordinary men who did extraordinary things.
What can one say about Band Of Brothers? This is probably the ten best movies (I intentionally don't say mini series) I've ever seen. There is so much detail, knowledge, and skill in these unbelievably powerful movies it took me a while to work up what I have seen. Perfect story (note that these are not really stories, but real happenings retold), perfect directing, perfect acting, perfect effects, perfect sound, perfectly authentic… the pure perfection! I bow down in front of the almighty gods who made Band Of Brothers. Mr. Spielberg, even tho you can sometimes be an arrogant f**k - I are totally belong to you!!<br/><br/>My ratings: not applicable, cause I'd give every single aspect 10/10.<br/><br/>My overall rating: 12/10! - A MUST SEE! A MUST HAVE! FOR EVERYONE!
BoB is great!!!! I was so curious, I had to look for myself. I was rather surprised.. <br/><br/>One of my problems was that I could not connect to the storythe characters were changed with every episode. It looked more like a dramatized documentary than a gripping story.<br/><br/>I also found the mood heavily sentimental. At regular intervals you would be confronted by a sad-looking GI, pondering the horror of it all, but then at the next moment ready to do his bit because his fellows depended on him,he depended on them: they were after all; a band of brothers. <br/><br/>I also had problems with the role of the 'europeans'. If they appeared at all, it was in a vague and distant manner, more props then real live persons. More to spark a scene of thoughtful pondering, than to give them their own piece to act. There was a foolishness English tank-commander who was blown to pieces by a tiger despite being warned by the valiant Americans. Had he but listened to them, he would still be alive… This event echo's the remark made at the beginning of the episode by one of the vet's: if we had been dropped at Arnhem, the operation would have been a success.<br/><br/>Then there was the Belgian damsel, who's only role seem to be to give the protagonist of the episode a moment of sadness. Cruel was fate, snuffing out the live of one so young and beautiful. The Germans had the obvious role allotted to them, like Indians in cowboy series, like Vietcong in Nam series and Russians in cold war movies. As all the baddies do: they stand up, march forward and get gunned down by droves. If they temporarily seem to win it was because there were too many of them or they had tanks. If they lose it was because they had to, faced by the superior Americans. This is underscored by the fact that the only German to rise above the role of target and have more line's than 'argg' or 'scheise' happened to be an German-American who joined the Germans. EventuallyGermans go, he was killed too. Of course triggering another dark moody pondering moment: how cruel was the fate setting up two country-man against each other.<br/><br/>At last I found some part of the series plain boring, especially the episode one called bastogne. A large part of the episode we follow the leading character, a medic, wandering through the woods from one place to the other. Nothing really happens.<br/><br/>I all: it's a reasonable series, but hardly worth high praise..

Sniper of Band of Brothers - Marcus Brotherton (Book about Shifty Powers)<br/><br/> It is hard, even after several times watching the series, to tell some characters apart. Go to http://www.hbo.com/band/landing/currahee.html, click on "The Series" in the lower left corner, and a menu with all the characters in that episode will show. Place the mouse pointer on a name, and a small pic will appear. Change episodes by clicking "Select a different part" at the top. Smokey Gordon was shot in the back in the Ardennes forest in the "Bastogne" episode. Doc Roe (correctly) determined that Smokey was paralyzed.<br/><br/>He survived his wounds and went on to be one of the organizers of the Easy Company reunions.<br/><br/>His paralysis was not permanent; although he would always have pain and a limp, he did recover the ability to walk. They did it against the medical advice of the doctors or medics. A combat hospital or aid station is not a prison & if the men had experienced a "minor" injury, like being hit in the arm or leg, they might feel that it wasn't enough to keep them off the front lines for very long. These days that probably isn't allowed due to the high risk of infection or further aggravation of an injury.<br/><br/>Also, people like Toye and Guarnere were very close friends and rather than sit around a hospital & be bored, they felt a large amount of loyalty to their friends and would return to combat earlier than they should. Not to mention, they may feel the guilt of missing out on any missions the company would have taken place while they were absent. Due to the close bond the men shared with each other, it isn't uncommon for them to feel guilt/regret should any of their friends die in combat while they are sitting in a hospital doing nothing. They may feel responsible, having felt that if they had been present, they may have been able to prevent the death of their comrades.<br/><br/>Finally, if a man stayed in the hospital for more than 90 days, he was typically reassigned to a different combat outfit. Most men would want to remain fighting with their trusted friends and officers. That Cobb or any other member of the 101'st felt or expressed any grievance is unknown. However it's worth pointing out that while all individuals assigned to the unit were permitted to wear the decoration the citation was awarded in two categories, permanent and temporary. A permanent award was made to any member of the unit who actively took part in the action for which the award was being made. A temporary award was made to any individual who was assigned to the unit after the action but were only permitted to wear the decoration while they were assigned to said unit. As to whether Cobb or anyone else was genuinely angered at replacements wearing the citation; Cobb was portrayedantagonistic throughout the entire series. He was someone always looking for a problem or trying to pick a fight. The citation itself wasn't the issue, just something for him to complain about. In real life, there may have been people in the unit with a similar attitude, or simply offended that their friends died on D-Day, but replacements got to wear the citation/take credit for participating. Although that is simply speculation. The Company parachutes into the Netherlandspart of Operation Market Garden, where they liberate Eindhoven. Large-scale air raids, including the preliminary bombing during Operation Market Garden to aid the US 101st Airborne Division paratroopers in securing the bridges in and around the town on 18 September 1944, destroyed large parts of the city.<br/><br/>Eindhoven is a big city in the Netherlands.
