The Uniforms of the Men of EASY COMPANY!!! | American Artifact Episode 11

This episode was produced in partnership with The Gettysburg Museum of History. See how you can support history education & artifact preservation by visiting their website & store at www.gettysburgmuseumofhistory...
Many people were introduced to WWII history through Saving Private Ryan and the book/HBO series Band of Brothers. In this episode, we're joining Erik Dorr at The Gettysburg Museum of History to look at the actual uniforms of some of the men of Easy Company, 506th PIR. Along with some of the men from the series that you may be familiar with, like Babe Heffron & Forrest Guth, we'll also be looking at some of the men who weren't featured but were equally deserving of recognition.

Hi JD and Erick !! Why are those pockets on that uniform at 8:27 are not straight like the other uniform? And are those men who's getting reafy to board the planes on that short video clip are the men of easy company? It would be cool to mention it when you show those videoclip!! Your video are quality, professionally well done !! Thank you again and have both of you and your family a Great Happy New year 2022!!!

[@tonyparr5715]

I have to say your videos are some of the most informative I have ever seen. Quality, info, and some real dignity where warranted. I'm older and educated and I think you've brought some knowledge that I would have never seen.

[@Jedi_On_The_Gray_Path]

My great uncle Michael Krylowski was a tank driver in Pattons 2nd army division. I remember uncle Mike telling us kids about the war. My grandfather Lewis Morfenski was also a WW2 vet I have alot of his ribbons and uniforms.

I really oughta visit the museum.

This channel is my gateway drug to WWII history! Thank you JD!!

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Ha! Thanks.

[@wrenchhead3077]

I saw the band of brothers series while deployed after 9/11 in a tent theater in the desert. Also met some of the actors during a USO visit. Awesome experience. The guys in Easy were warriors!!

[@allynloring6095]

So many names that were never mentioned in BOB book or mini series....that are now coming to light.... because of KZbin segments like these......... keep up the vigil....let no one have the excuse to forget...

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Hopefully we can bring about an awareness of some of the guys who weren’t featured in the series.

[@BryonLetterman]

Whoever had the idea for you to collaborate with Erik and his museum is a genius. You have some amazing VLOG style footage from amazing places and he has all of the artifacts to make it all come together

[@Dylantuning1995]

Absolutely loving all of the episodes you put out. I'm a massive WW2 enthusiast in particular D-Day and Holland (because i'm Dutch myself) and the rest of the Western campaign, I'm not very drawn to the eastern part aside from the concentration camps (been to Auschwitz, absolutely a must to see, very emotional). Started the love of it with Saving Private Ryan when I was 10 years old watching it with my sister and I was hooked for life. Eventually found Band of Brothers on TV and later bought the full dvd box and now I'm trying to scatter all bits and Pieces of Easy Company together, have over 60 or so books on WW2 including 4 or 5 from Easy and been trying to back track their steps. This is a very interesting episode and I love all of the info, massive thank you to yourself, Erik and Paul as well.. Heard new info about the Brits on Pegasus, african american soldiers (Never knew they landed on Normandy) I've been wanting to go to Normandy since I was 11 or 12, which is 15 years ago, and been actively planning for the past 3 years but corona and all has been in the way unfortunately. Hoping on getting everything set for this year so I can sightsee for 7 days straight with my dad on most of the D-Day sightings. Again, thank you so much for all the info, for some weird reason I feel that I "need" to go there, as in something or someone telling me. Some of these stories you tell are truly emotional touching. Thank you and hoping for more in the future

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Thanks 🙏🏼

[@sparky11976]

Thanks guys!!! Can’t wait to visit the museum!!! Awesome, I could look at this stuff all day long.

[@normahird9059]

JD..... Again another superb vlog. It is so important that these vlogs are made. Most of the veterans of WW2 have passed away. We must remember the sacrifice that was made to preserve our freedom. Thank you for all of your efforts.

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Absolutely. Thank you.

[@jetsons101]

JD, you and Erik make a great team. Every time I watch "The History Underground" I'm thankful for my freedom. Thanks for your time and effort---now I have to dig out my "Band Of Brothers" DVD........

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Thanks! Got some more Easy Company content on the horizon 🙂

[@andrewrafael7843]

I agree one thousand percent, saving private Ryan and band of brothers are the two best depictions of ww2. Both of those are what got me so intrigued in learning not just ww2 but history as a whole

[@allengrant]

Again, a fascinating journey into the lives, equipment, apparel, and stories of the 101st. HUGE props to Eric Dorr for his past, present, and I'm sure future quests to bring us these sometimes never-before-seen artifacts, and their stories. He appears to be a walking encyclopedia of American History. He is the perfect counterpart to yourself, in bringing us closer to understanding these Easy Co men, their artifacts, and their experiences. Your trips to Europe, in effect, walking thru the footsteps of Easy Co personnel, and Eric's collection of tangible, and rarely seen associated memorabilia, form a perfect partnership. Thx JD & Eric, once again, for a most engaging and thought provoking glimpse into the personalities and experiences of our Greatest Generation.

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Thanks! Erik is a heck of a guy.

Stephen Ambrose and his books got me into World War 2 history which then gave me the questions to ask the veterans in my family. Technicality in my questions opened up for human answers when talking to my vet family members.

To see the men`s own writing is priceless memories, forever preserved. Fantastic collection that must be very special to Eric J.D? One major stand out item is the skinny those men were, as kids really when you think on it?

Again... I´m just speechless and filled with awe of Mr Dorr´s work here. What a place that museum is!!!! That "stencil garment" is awesome, as well as the story of the "sewing kit" jacket! Just wonderful stuff. Aaaaand obviously (again) another great video!!!! Just plain wonderful!!!! As a guy born in Finland i really can appreciate the effort made to crush the enemy, in US case the Germans, in our the Russians. Now I live in the peaceful Sweden and just can´t wait for the next episodes to come. Perhaps an episode of how to maintain and conserve clothing and other stuff in this museum. The clothing seems to be in excellent condition are they washed or conserved in anyway? Same goes to guns, helmets, medals and stuff like that. It must take a lot of work to maintain all this!? How much is outsourced/done inhouse?? Is the work done once and then put away or is it a recurring process? How many people/companies are involved maintaining stuff like this? Are only original gun (or other) parts/textile/thread/insignia used or reproduced items to make things show worthy?? Questions.... questions...
