Today, all of the Band of Brothers of Easy Company are now dead. The very last member of Easy Company to pass away was Bradford C. Freeman. He died on July 3, 2022, at the age of 97. Rest in peace, Easy Company, you will never be forgotten.

One thing I’ve always noticed was when Winters broke the news that the Japanese had surrendered, the look on everyone’s face wasn’t of joy nor sadness, it was more of “where do we go from here?” A lot of them had realized that was the last time they’d all be together it seemed and it just hit them.

Dude as someone who works funerals. The fact that George Luz's funeral was visited by 1600 people is about the best commendation you can get as a person. You never see that many people for a funeral unless that person was (locally) famous to some extend

Luz was actually not a “handy man”. As I understand it he had a few different jobs and was working on a machine, possibly a commercial washing machine which fell on him. But yes reported by his son 1600 (approx) did attend his funeral. I wonder how many actually knew about his WWII service!

And we could be like this again, if we decided this is what we wanted America to be again. This is certainly the sort of America I think we're always able to be, if we want to be. The sort of America worth aspiring to and fighting for. Just normal, decent folks trying to do what needs to be done.

I would also argue that Ordinary Men did horrific things as well. There is a book called Ordinary men that talks about that. If you're in a good mental state, I would urge you to read it. It follows Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the final solution in Poland. The men were older and supposedly more resilient to brainwashing, however, they committed sin that should/could not be repeated.

My dad was born in Korea in 1932, then under Japanese occupation. My grandfather hid him when the NKPA invaded the South in 1950, got drafted into the nascent ROK air force, was discharged, went to medical school, came to the U.S. in 1957, married my mom in 1960 then they had my brother and I in 1963 and 1964. They moved to Wisconsin in 1971, became U.S. citizens in 1976 and lived in "their peaceful corner of the world" until they both passed away (mom in 2017, dad in 2021). When i see these Band of Brothers, i think of my dad doing his part for freedom in 1950's Korea. God bless our Greatest Generation.

This scene brings tears to my eyes. To sum up the stories of all these men… truly amazing. This series is special, it’ll always be one favorite War related series and maybe just favorite tv series of all time. What these men did for us is something we can never ever stop appreciating them for. We have our freedom today because of men like this. 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I am an Iraq army veteran myself and re joining society after my deployment was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. I did see combat and I spent about 5 years using drugs after I got back to cope. Been sober 3 years now but I can relate to how re joining society is extremely difficult. And these guys had it WAY harder than I did. Their style of combat was insanely worse than today’s style imo. I’m glad some of them were able to find nice, peaceful lives after war. That’s all I ever wanted as well.

I went to Normandy and have noticed recently that I have been very disturbed by the visit. I enjoyed the trip, but, it was rather haunting walking where so many had died so young. I worry too much about things in life even when I remind myself of how trivial those things are. I can't imagine the feelings of so many as they went to war and during the invasion of Normandy and beyond. It saddens me deeply to think about all the loss. So many people lost to the ways of a selfish, sociopathic leader and those who blindly followed.

I respect your sentiment, but disagree on this: these men were not warriors. They were every day Joes called on to do the near impossible and survive the trauma they saw and inflicted. A few months of training does not a warrior make. That said, many of them carried the emotional scars of the war until the end of their lives. My father included. It cost him one marriage, and almost his second one also. He found it difficult to make and hold onto friends, or make any attachments for that matter. Some men die on the filed of battle. Others survived to be tortured by what they had seen or done. All of them are heroes in their own right.

One of my favorite parts in this series. So many, on so many different fronts, each with their own stories. My grandfather was a Sea Bee, island hopping across the Pacific and ended the war trying to clean up the Philippines. My late father-in-law got to his base in what now Dhaka, Bangladesh (East Pakistan then) at the age of 18. An aircraft mechanic. I can only imagine the shape some of those aircraft were in when they returned from missions. They had a group, The CBI (China, Burma, India). They disbanded on a given date in the early 2000s so the remaining guys wouldn't have to shut things down. I grew up in the 1960a, so many of these men were my Boy Scout leaders, and teachers, and just neighbors and was taught that the way to repay the debt was to leave your part of the world a little better than it had been.

Just finished watching this last week for the first time and I absolutely loved it. Now I’m on ep3 of The Pacific and then I’ll give Masters of the Air a watch too. As a side note I absolutely adore the homage they payed to the movie “The Sandlot” from 1993 with this baseball scene.

Pacific is great, with much better battle scenes, but unnecessary explicit scenes peppered throughout.

William Menendez no problem. Wish the govt realized the magnitude of the rare group of men who served in World War II, the Korean War and Vietnam. Men like that, following the end of the Vietnam War, shouldn’t have to work a day of their rest of their lives and never have to pay taxes. Men who served in WWII were given the option to opt out the draft for the Korean War. Same thing with Vietnam (Korean War vets were given the option to opt out of the draft selected them). That means your grandfather willfully went to two additional wars. Unreal. Even Dick Winters opted out when given the choice after he got drafted for the Korean War

James Yeah he had a decent pension after he retired, he made probably around 100,000 a year maybe a little less but some good money in general. He retired in 1970 and was never the type of man to be able to sit around and not work. He got a job at a car dealership and worked their for 25 years. Of course the government still taxed the living hell out of a simple man who literally jumped out of airplanes into combat, shot people, and nearly froze to death in a far away country (Korea) and served in a war where everyone back home hated the soldiers who fought (Vietnam) many people say the Vietnam war was pointless, but he had many buddies serving as infantry soldiers in that war who died, and he refused to believe they died for nothing. It makes me sad to think after all he did for this country he never got any special recognition by the public (same with a lot of those other men)

William Menendez i always tell people that regardless of the politics, always respect the men and women who get sent. WWII is obviously easy to feel proud of because we couldn’t let the Nazis win. The Korean War too. Every Korean War veteran that visits South Korea gets blown away by how prosperous the country is-and that would not have happened if the US did not intervene when the Soviet backed Chinese invaded the Korean Peninsula. Vietnam is always tough to discuss but the men there should always be honored. I’ve been to Vietnam. It’s actually a pretty cool vacation spot. Even though the country did turn communist after the US pulled out, it’s now a country seeking pragmatic economics with state institutions being privatized and their govt seeking foreign investment to join the global free market (kinduv what we were hoping to instill by being there). I talked to some college students who spoke English and none of them have any feelings or opinions about the war. They were more interested in asking me about Lebron James and Beyoncé. I’m not a historian so I can’t say for sure what impact we made there. I’d like to think we made an impact but the impact is very very obvious with WWII and the Korean War
