Man, they really got look alikes to act in this series.

Giles Milton book on this way better.

God Bless you all Men and Wemon that Serve our Country . Thank you ❣️ Ive never served but have family that did in active war time. I think that no one who has never had to fight. Can are will ever unerstand what our Vets have and some are still going through. And the families of our Service Men and Wemon. My prayers are with you all. For all of our fallen RIP God be with all 🙏

There are many such sadists in the military around the world. They are given some low rank and they abuse it as though they are some king of the camp. Imo it's childish.

He fought in the 2nd Brother War. The side he fought for wasn't too grateful, were they?

I guess if you live in a country like America , where it is always wanting to invade and murder, innocent people , this tough training would be essential

I’m glad they gave him a fair shake. I’ve always thought he was the best man to train those boys. He saved many of their lives,

Thank you for sharing your testimony in the book that you wrote.

Rest in peace Mr.Sobel - Thank you for your service. Long live the Republic.

Speirs was lucky. He came home in one piece. Physically at least. Those others who rest in some corner of a foreign field, or whose graves are marked “known unto God”. Young men who never knew the world without war.

At 4:55, it cuts to a shot of Christina Dell’Anna standing next to Mother Cabrini’s coffin inside the NYC Church/Shrine. She played Mother Cabrini in the 2024 movie, eponymously titled, “Cabrini.”

It is very important to forgive people. Forgive and move forward. But it seems his mother simply didn't care about anyone or anything including herself. In my humble opinion J.D. should have erased her out of his life altogether. Not impressed with her at all as she seems to be empty soul. J.D. took after his grandmother not his mother. Very honored to have him as our Vice President

As heartbreaking as it must have been, I actually give her and her second husband credit for including him in their lives, and making sure he still got to help raise his son, it so often went very differently. Sad story, but could have been so much worse.

Wait hol the fuck up. @0:46 are they holding lions???

That was a GREAT video, and I hope it took us at least a small step toward understanding that Herbert Sobel was not a villain.

I'm sure there were many stories that have never been reported (good and bad) that has happened in all wars, IMHO. THE SARGE

Do you have her shoe size too?

What cruel people, after togo serve them with all his life. They didnt let togo to die peacefully! Why the nedd to preserve american hero dog.. let him rest! He served you all his life.. Sorry for my English

2:46 What exactly is a 'stork town'? Please explain.

Haha, "David Schwimmer superbly portrays Sobel in the series", then lists unchangeable body features and not a word about his actual acting or character portrayal.

My Aunt Evelyn was a war bride from England. They moved to Canada and were happily married for many years after the war until he passed away.

Was Spiers notorious for "liberating" silver items and shipping them back to his wife in England?

the 42nd inf division after malmedy, shot every ss man the could get their hands on. and thisd comes from someone that was there.

Dick Winters was an anti-semite and Stephen Ambrose was a plagarist

The legend grew up in a community of the hardest working farmers and honest Christians (Mennonites) you will never meet. We are losing the farmland to pavement and warehouses. And thus, we lose the making of legends. I've been privileged to know some. He was connected to that community for life, serving as a feed salesman/company owner. It's the best life there is, the most productive non-irrigated ground on the planet, and a supportive community who care more about living morally, than making a few hundred thousand more per year investing the same overhead in apartments (~$600k is the annual 2025 difference in ROI on capital in cage-free eggs, vs rental units for humans which appreciate rather than lose value, which is the case with equipment in a chicken house). Just FYI: $10/dozen is the fair price... The farmer is already losing out by about $600,000 annually because he has 4 million overhead in a farm instead of in rental units, and no pay for working holidays, nights and weekends, no health insurance, and with dangerous exposure to foul virus/bacteria/etc. Please grow up and stop griping about $5/dz eggs or $10. Work half as hard or half as much as a farmer, and you'll be a millionaire and can buy all the eggs you want with no concern.

A soldier who fought much more than others, jumped into combat in Korea, spent distinguished years in service more years of service than many and he was an excellent professional, and if he had not died in 1967 he would surely have gone to Vietnam while many others only remembered Company E. Once again, Ambrose's puppet is misinforming, hiding truths and lying.

Thank you for this story.

This is a very common story seen in the military. Happens on a regular basis. When given opportunity and the right situation, women show their true nature. There is a reason Antiquity and the Middle Ages kept them on a short leash.

The knee jerk reaction against the so-called White Saviour leaning speaks volumes on some people's lack of intelligence, and ability to see nuance.

Wow what an amazing lovely gentlemanly story. No hate just respect honor and proper courtesy ❤ 🙏

Despite what anyone thinks of CPT. Sobel no one deserves that death. And as an EMT it’s why I hate nursing homes

He showed he truly loved her by letting her go. He knew it wouldn't work if she was in love with the other guy. That to me is respect. Same for her. She could've hide it, or go behind his back and have the other guy as an affair or whatever. Instead they talked about it and respected each other. That to me makes me respect them a lot. None of them tried to force it for appearances of "because marriage". That's what being an adult is all about, you make it work, if not you respect each other and try to be happy elsewhere.

The final sentiments said it all! Peace+

Damn and they did him so dirty in band of brothers, dude musta been the absolute WORST lol

Wow like a Hollywood Movie 👌⭐️✅

I thought this would be clickbait but he really called Nixon a prick lol

Nice follow-up, but no, sorry, Colin Nepotism doesn't look much like him just 'cause he combs his hair the right way.

VJ day???

I want to get married Sir. Then sign up again for another tour of duty. Done.

Speirs had the mindset of a warrior, there's no love in war.

Why do people insist on 'historical accuracy' in works of fiction? The Dig is a commercial film made to make money and entertain. It has no duty to fact.

Fact or not, the 2 leading characters were amazing in this!! No need to learn fact from fiction! The need is to be entertained!! It's a movie!! And anybody who watched it was!!!

So much of Ambrose work is regurgitated falsehoods!

Should have waited until end of war for marriage Discipline also involves controlling ones passions Winters managed okay and didn't marry until much later!

Seems like Sobel knew the hell that was coming, and prepared the men accordingly. He excepted being called a asshole by his squad for the rest of their lives, but at least they would have a rest of their lives....

Ronald Speirs was born in the UK, and his parents were British (Scottish) from Edinburgh. He married a British woman, and his son became a Lt Col in the British Army. He's a true-fighting Briton 🇬🇧 I am pretty sure they did not stay together because his wife did not want to emigrate to the US.

crap happens

I can’t fucking believe the real guy played Carmine!

I don't believe anything in this video. The owner was aware she was being filmed.

He gave them someone they could hate which would strengthen their bonds. It was all intentional and purposeful. He bore the best of the best. In the big picture he is one of the most important people to have ever walked the face of the Earth as he created the warriors that won the war...and they did. They held the line in Bastogne and when you read about those battles you discover that Bastogne was the most important cross roads on Earth at that time. Everything had to go through the Bastogne crossroads. 6 roads I believe? Had they lost Bastogne and lost it early we probably would've lost in Europe or at the least we would've been slaughtered. He's up there with Turing. His contributions helped save humanity...and he's viewed as the worst of the worst. It just shows how unconscionable hollywood truly was...is. The only truth they care about is the truth that turns the biggest profit.
