My dad landed D-day+3, was in the replacement pool. They came around and asked who was proficient with 30 cal. He raised his hand. Was placed in the F1 command tank as bough gunner. 2nd armored 66th armored regiment. Went straight to carentan and was right there. Said the 101st guys were out of ammo. Guys were literally crying and kissing his tank. His tank commander William Nicholson was killed by a sniper in Carentan. They killed the sniper. My dad ended up the only survivor out of 4 tanks and was wounded out at end of October 44. I don’t think he was ever really right after that. He never talked to us kids about it. Only when he would get around another combat vet and we happened be there would we hear this stuff. Makes me sad for all these guys.

Father in law was in 2nd wave at Omaha . Saw Saving Private Ryan with him. His job was to string the communication wire up and down the beach. He was a violin and music teacher before the war so the Army thought he would do well with handling the wire b/c of the dexterity of his fingers. He said the only problem was he hated heights and had to climb poles to string wire at times. Asked him about the beach landing scene. He said it was that bad and worse. He was very quiet after the movie. Sure it brought back memories he would have liked to have forgot. He did tell of passing a bomb crater where several soldiers were. When he came back that way a short time later they were all dead. I would recommend reading D-Day by Stephen Ambrose. It is probably the most detailed account of the D-Day landing. Incredible what those men/boys went through. Twenty-two year olds commanding full companies.

The scene is mixed up and somehow weirdly edited. In the original scene the battle took allready > 2 minutes before the GERMAN tanks showed up and then went on for several more minutes before finally the shermans entered the scene. If I remeber correctly, this is the only episode from that miniseries that has a 16+ and a 18+ version and this one here is probaby the 16+ version (because it misses the few seconds where a retreating german soldier gets shot and crushed by one of his own tanks).
@andrewsmith8729Ай бұрын
I think you find "About Time" is a reference to the arrival of the tanks from the landing beaches. The paratroopers had been at the tip of the spear for a couple of days more than expected. Without looking up the history, I think the deal was the paras were to fight a disrupting battle for 24 hours while the main body of troops landed and moved inland to meet them. However, it never worked out as planned and the paras had to fight on for a couple of more days before the landing forces met up with them. This scene in BOB is reflecting that moment they landing forces turned up... hence "about time" The paras would have been getting low on ammunition and supplies because they probably only jumped with 200-300 rounds each if that.

@Christopher Smith well partly true on Ostbattalions Ostbattalions were formed from volunteers that wanted to fight the communists but the Germans didn’t trust them so they sent all of them to France to man the Atlantic Wall. Later in 1945 they formed the 1st POA under General Vlasov. You would see Russians, Turks, Koreans, Japanese, Ukrainians, Georgians and others formed into these units. Some did good in combat and some did shitty but most if not all were handed back over to the Soviets in 1945/46 and executed. The 17th SS was only well equipped cause the legit JUST finished being formed in Fed/March 1944 these troops never seen combat before. FJR6 was a Fallschrimjager unit and the last to get jump training they did the combat jump into the Battle of the Bulge (Operation Strosser). They had a amazing combat record.

People really need to think about how these scenes are filmed. The camera is always pointing in the right direction to capture the action for the viewer. Whereas in reality, one of these soldiers would have no idea exactly where most of the enemy were, or who was aiming in a particular direction just waiting for someone to step out in front of their sights etc. They were a generation of exceptionally brave men on both sides of the line. Like every soldier these men marched off to war not knowing if they would ever see their home again, and WW2 was a far more deadlier war than previous wars in many respects because the artillery and tanks were much improved.

As shown, they were successful as the left flank fell back under the artillery and quick movement of infantry and armor. If it had worked as planned they wouldn’t have been in the open for long as the American line would be destabilized and they could then utilize the trenches in case of a counter attack (I assume).

This was a great series although it was very difficult to watch. While I grew up with, and enjoy, John Wayne movies this is a much more accurate portrayal of war according to my friends who actually experienced it. I never served as I was too young for Vietnam and too old for the following wars. I have many friends and relatives that experienced Vietnam, Korea, and WW2.

They can't penetrate a Jagdpanther pointing down, but it sure as hell won't stay alone against 4-5 Shermans that close range lol. Due to the bocage this is actually a semi or full realistic scenario.< It's not a "Blitzkrieg" though. That is a strategic/operational thing, fast armor units - limited mechanized and combined arms - spearhead far ahead of convoy lines, motorized come after. The goal is to encircle large parts of a static enemy or otherwise be much faster than the retreating enemy,

I always try to link my favorite WWII films together. Like right now, Captain Miller and the boys are out looking for Private Ryan. Then in this scene, when 2nd Armored rolls up, I like to believe it’s Fury, with Warddaddy and the rest coming to reinforce Easy Company after fighting through D-Day.

Yeah, Americans love to take credit for the war in Europe, even though over 80% of German casualties were on the eastern front. The western front was a side-show for the Germans, and the Italians were almost useless as allies. With that said, I still love this series though.
