*Some inaccuracies found in Band of Brothers:* 1) Both Renée Lemaire and Augusta Chiwy, known as the Angels of Bastogne, were volunteer nurses at the aid station of the 20th Armored Infantry Battalion, Combat Command B, 10th Armored Division. Renée Lemaire does not appear to have ever met Doc Roe (Eugene Roe) and she did not die in a church. Battalion Surgeon Dr. Jack T. Prior is the one who wrapped her body in a parachute and delivered her remains to her family. The aid station was located in a disused Sarma store in the rue de Neufchâteau that was destroyed in the bombing and there is now a Chinese restaurant on the site. There is a memorial plague in front of the restaurant dedicated to Renée Lemaire and the over 30 soldiers who died there. 2) The camp liberation and associated scenes shown in episode 9 are fictional. The camp depicted in Band of Brothers is Kaufering IV which was actually liberated by the 12th Armored Division on April 27, 1945, with some units of the 101st Airborne Division arriving on April 28 and Easy Company arriving on April 29 (with the 522nd Field Artillery Battalion and 36th Infantry Division arriving on April 30). And there were only about 7 prisoners found alive along with about 500 bodies. 3) Easy Company did not liberate Berchtesgaden nor were they the first to reach the Eagle's Nest as shown in episode 10. The 7th Infantry Regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division is credited with the liberation of Berchtesgaden on May 4, 1945, and members of the French 2nd Armored Division are credited with being the first to reach the Eagle's Nest in the early morning of May 5. Easy Company arrived a few hours later. 4) Also, in episode 10 members of Easy Company did not kill an unnamed commandant of an unnamed concentration camp. This is based on the shooting of Franz Ziereis who had been commandant of Mauthausen. He had tried to hide out at his mountain hunting cabin but was spotted and reported. On May 23, 1945, U.S. Army soldiers attempted to arrest him, and he was shot three times trying to escape. He died the next day in a U.S. Army hospital. No members of Easy Company were involved.

It's a cheeky bit of editing, but Winters' last statement about serving in a company of heroes is actually him quoting from a letter sent to him by Mike Ranney, one of his comrades. Even if they're not Winters' own words though, you can see he was deeply affected by them.

As a veteran myself and being privileged to have met many members of The Greatest Generation whilst they were still in the prime of their life, I feel that this series speaks for everyone who has experienced the horrors of war in all conflicts and all sides, and it is a strong message for those who have not of the futility of human conflict.

the way Winters quote Mike Ranney on his grandson gets me every time! so selfless and courageous, he was not part of Easy Company, he WAS Easy Company! his last shot killed that german boy at the crossroads in Holland, so when he kept the surrendering german officer's pistol, he ensured it remained unfired, since it had never been fired in six years of war. the epic journey of Easy Company comes to a satisfying and introspective conclusion along with various storylines while leaving room for reflection! this episode navigates on the beauty of European landscapes juxtaposed with the scars of war, once again the complexities of the human element as civilian life with the challenges for a sense of normalcy...an "enemy" doctor saves the life of a man shot by a soldier from his own army! among all the sacrifice, a german General addresses his troops with resilience and the bond between brothers that only exists in combat! even the germans knew that! gratefully a big part of the real veterans could enjoy the reception of the miniseries in life and they were all proud of the way the Company was honored! and finally to paraphrase what Winters said to Shifty: you're a hell of a fine youtuber, Jules! there's nothing more to explain...

It was a letter to Winters from Mike Ranney, the Sergeant who got busted back to Private when Winters was about to be court-martialled; shown in ep.1. It was Ranney's grandson who was told the quote, which Winters repeated at the end of the interviews, about not being a hero, but being in a company of heroes; Ranney was amongst those who took part in taking out the guns at Brecourt Manor on D-day. I believe that he was back being a Sergeant by the end of the war. A lot of people keep saying it was Winters' quote, but it's not. kerk

Oh dear, what a journey it was! Thank you for sharing it with me it was quite the experience 🤗My great-grandfather was a soldier during WWII. He fought in what we in Poland call "September's campaign" - when both Nazi Germany and Soviet Union attacked Poland from both sides (or if you look at the map... pretty much almost all sides). At some point his unit was overwhelmed by Germans and surrendered. He was transported and imprisoned in Konzentrationslager Dachau (as per what my Grandmom said). He attempted to escape 4 times and 4th time he succeeded with a help of... German doctor! When I was a young boy he was already an old man and did not wanted to talk about war at all. Any stories I've hears was due to the fact he shared some with his wife and daughter (my grandma) who told my mom, and that's how I learned. He supposedly said that regardless of how hard it was in the camp, at least he came back home, many colleagues he knew which were prisoners of war taken by the soviets never came back home. Germans got Nuremberg trials and that's how their crimes were shown to the world. But no one in the world talks about and barely anyone even knows how horrible things soviets did as at the end of the war they were on the "winning side" and allies did not wanted to upset Stalin. I know it is not very much related to Band of Brothers but somewhat felt like sharing those thoughts and hope you dont mind. Have a lovely weekend Ma'am.

The Soviet Union's role in creating World War II was (largely) buried by history. This is a shame. Poland's bravery in fighting invasions by both powers is inspiring to me - as was their resistance to the Soviets after World War I and during the Cold War. I wish I could thank your great grandfather for his bravery.

Well remember, the Soviet Union slammed down the Iron Curtain and erected the Berlin Wall. Even Russian historians couldn't access records to write history books.

Absolutely do the documentary for this and put it on the channel. Yes we want to see that, that's why so many of us have recommended it. Also, Ron Livingston, who played Louis Nixon, did a video diary of the 'boot camp' the actors went through prior to filming, and it's very good. You should consider reacting to that as well. It's crazy how we feel these guys are old friends by the time we finished this show, even though I was never lucky enough to meet any of them.

That final ending: "Grandpa were you a hero in the war? Grandpa said no. But I served in a company of heroes". GUTS ME. Waterworks....every.....single.....time. And I've watched over a dozen KZbinrs doing reactions to this (btw, your's is one of the very best if not the best). What humility! Every time I think of the term "Band of Brothers" (and see the impact war had on these YOUNG men) I too am brought to the question you ask. How can you go back to your previous life? In modern mythology/story telling this is perfectly illustrated in the character of Frodo. Another thing Lord of the Rings got correct was the "Band of Brothers" aspect of shared suffering,. Near the end of the final movie, Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin are sitting around the table in The Green Dragon Inn/Pub drinking ale. Notice how everyone around then pays them NO attention...totally oblivious to what they have done. Only the 4 can truly relate...and you see them raise a toast to each other. I am deeply humbled to think I was ever in the crowd of the oblivious (and I know I have been). The YOUNG men who returned from that great conflict deserved to be given the title hero (even if most of them would have been embarrassed by it). So here's to Richard (Dick) Winters, the men of Easy Co., and those like them. Good on you! And Currahee!

While it was sad I feel like at the time, it was probably necessary unfortunately ..and definitely not fair to the japanese americans AT ALL. It was japanese american spies who had spied at pearl harbor and gave them the information to attack it and there was massive resentment to them and I think putting them in the camps may have been necessary at the time. They weren't camps like the germans had and they weren't really ill treated but weren't free by any means either, it may have shielded them from the anger many americans had at the time. I could be wrong completely as I wasn't alive during this era, but I'm glad we at least gave them some reparations to those that were done wrong, and I apologize to the japanese americans and all people that we mistreated over the time of america's existence. We aren't a perfect country, but we strive to be better when we can. We can only hope to learn from history.

Loved watching your reactions. Definitely quite an emotional series that was so well done. A true emotional release when we find out who is who. Bought this on DVD, then Blu Ray and now 4K UHD. Very well worth having Band of Brothers in the collection. Two. That's how many I got right. Dick Winters and Bill Guarnere. Missed on everyone else. Many of the men from Easy ended up with books they wrote or were written about them. I have read many. One of my favorites is Bill Guarnere and Babe Heffron's book "Brothers in Battle, Best of Friends: Two WWII Paratroopers from the Original Band of Brothers Tell Their Story." They were both great men and colorful characters. The last episode to watch is "documentary We Stand Alone Together: The Men of Easy Company."

They are all from the same town and each is trying to adjust to civilian life after the war and each with their individual issues. You have the Sergeant who returns to his wife and daughter and job at the bank only to find out his boss' want him to make it difficult for vets to get loans. Another was an officer who was a bombardier in the nose of a bomber whose wife wants to ride his coat tails but the only job he can land is a soda jerk in a drugstore. The most touching is about a young sailor who lost both hands and tries to cope with his disability while hoping his family and girl still love him. It's a very good movie.

I hope you upload your react to the documentary as well, I would definitely watch that! When they do the lottery, if you watch carefully, you'll notice the helmet was empty, they only had put Shifty's name in there to ensure he got to go home. And thank you for reacting to Band of Brothers, I hope you enjoyed it, even if it can be very tough at times.

Truly the greatest generation. They stood up against evil and impossible odds and we owe them a debt that can never be repaid. This show is so special because of that, it shows the horrors they went through and serves as a reminder to us all what these men did for us. Spectacular reaction, I know its not an easy viewing, thanks for letting us along for the ride.

This was really the perfect ending to a fantastic series. And with the epilogue of "We Stand Alone Together," it's a series I will never forget. Sorry I didn't get to watching this sooner. I don't know how the KZbin algorithm works, but I feel like the first couple of days that a video is up are probably the most important ones for engagement, and I always feel bad when I can't watch new reactions in that time. But better late than never?

Oh Bubbly! You are so sweet?? Thank you! I'm just pleased that anyone watches them, to be honest! I think you're right with the first day or so being most important but sometimes an old video can really take off out of nowhere and it will gain so much traction! KZbin is a fickle beast that I don't know how to tame 😅

Speirs, just before Normandy, actually married a British war widow and had a son on the way. At the end of the war, it was discovered her previous husband wasn't dead, but had been a POW held by the Germans. After he returned, Spears stepped aside. I always wonder if that's why he stayed in the army after the war.

Worry not about your tears, I'm a 6'4" 18 stone 60 year old ex Rugby Forward, and this ending sees tears rolling down my cheeks every time I watch it .... Please do the reaction to " We stand alone together ", and have a box of tissues ready ... When the veterans were interviewed by the film crews for the brilliant " Band of Brothers " mini-series, the film crews would arrive at their homes and find that many of their family members were present. Initially they just thought that the families had expected either Tom Hanks or Stephen Spielberg to be there .... they very soon came to realise that they were there to listen, because it was the first time their Father or Grandfather had spoken about their war-time experiences to any great degree ...

I think the ending speaks for itself; I certainly have nothing to add that wouldn't be talking just to see my own words. I will, then, offer my favorite fact about WWII: The Brisbane Line. Yes, the Brisbane in Australia. There was a time when the Japanese were idly toying with the idea of invading Australia; you can find some old maps where they divided the country up into prefectures. The Australian response to the potential Japanese invasion? _Have it._ They'd shrug and give the Japanese as much of Australia as they wanted, up to Brisbane. It's not from cowardice; it's from knowing their own country. "You really think you can waltz in and tame the bush? G'head. We'll be watching from our lawn chairs with our beers." That just tickles me. The reaction to a potential invasion being "Come and get it if you really want it."

A couple of things… I am going to share something personal about myself. Please don’t let anyone else know. I am an old man. I will confess that I shed a few tears watching episode 7, a lot of tears in episode 9, but I cry more in the last ten minutes of episode 10. The incident with the German officer surrendering his pistol to Winters didn’t go down as shown here. Winters kept the weapon and discovered it had never been fired. Winters kept it that way, never to be fired. When the war ended some of the leading Nazis committed suicide, Hitler and Göring for example. Some were put on trial and executed for war crimes. Those that were found guilty but not deserving death were imprisoned in Spandau Prison. Command of the prison was rotated between the Allied nations. It was a really BIG deal for Speirs to be named governor. If you like the segments featuring the interviews with the vets then We Stand Alone Together is a must watch documentary. I hope you watch The Pacific. It is just as good as BoB but the theme is very different. After you have seen TP you should watch another documentary, He Has Seen War. This is about how the men returned and dealt, not always well, with what they had gone through. You have to see TP first because you won’t know half the people. So on Remembrance Day, on ANZAC Day, stand still, stand proud, stand grateful. You were always respectful, maybe now a little more. Oh, and remember Easy was in combat for about one year. Diggers were in the war from Sept 1939 to August 1945. We owe them a lot.

In real life Winters did accept the pistol from the German officer who was also a Major not a colonel the pistol was an UNFIRED walther PP winters never fired the pistol he liked the idea it had no blood on it.
