You you gave Compton to grades too many he's just a lieutenant one bar second lieutenant gold bar lieutenant two gold bars captain railroad tracks major you look for the oak leaves uninstaller then Lieutenant Colonel kernel Lieutenant General Brigadier General I might have skipped one General rank yeah there's like seven or eight before lieutenant
I would love for somebody to do the conversion but like you imagined it like a month of rent in a decent places like 20 bucks nickel for a Sunday. And I know there's no way in God's green earth money can stay the same there's no reason we got to pay so dearly for the same stuff anywhere jumping off my soapbox and smashing it and I'm going to burn it LOL😂
oh y'all better get ready for this one
They were called Easy Company because they were Company E of their Battalion. A company has anywhere from a few dozen to 200 soldiers. It’s a tactical-sized unit that can perform a battlefield function on its own. A company consists of three or four platoons (a platoon being approximately 36 soldiers, commanded by a lieutenant), and is generally commanded by a captain. It can also go by different names, depending on the function: Company-sized artillery units are called batteries, while in armor and air cavalry units, they are called troops. During WWII, the military alphabet used somewhat different words for each letter; Easy was used for the letter E. In the 1950s the military alphabet was adjusted to become more uniform, since it was to be used by all NATO forces, and the American and British militaries before that had utilized different words for each letter. Sometimes it matched, sometimes it didn’t, and this caused confusion in communication in the postwar period, so they updated it. Today, we still use this updated military alphabet across all types of communications. Today, Easy Company would be called Echo Company.
Love this series!
absolutely fantastic series… that shot of the planes is one of the best in the film.. and just a note — the actor playing winters is a brit… and his natural accent will throw you the first time you hear him speak. i had no idea.
I'm watching them watch…again. Fascinating to see Asia IMMEDIATELY see through the training…and I thank her for her service of course…
Cant wait for you to see the rest
I wonder if Asia has served before. She seemed more familiar with this, the way she's watching.
Curahee means “stands alone” so, they stand alone, together.
5:09 thats Michael Fassbender… as in Magneto… you guys need to pay attention to the actors, cause theres a LOT of big names that by the time this came out were pretty much unknown, and funny detail, most of them are english, australian, german etc all playing American soldiers. youll see the faces of like Tom Hardy, Simon Pegg, James McAvoy, Andrew Scott etc.
One of my favorite WWII movies/series.
19:10 huh? they all have the same thing dude, and its a parachute… ¬¬
I can't wait for you to watch more. Please keep the episodes coming and don't make us wait weeks between episodes.
23:31 its 205,000 today…
The Diamond means he's First Sergeant. Top ranking NCO in the company and the company commander's enlisted counterpart and right hand man.
$10K in 1944 is about $170K today.
One of the greatest series ever made. BJ I love that you noticed that Winters shook each hand and looked them in the eye standing them up. I always thought that was an subtle, but very powerful and important thing.
I don't know if I've seen a reactor channel do this, but a follow up to this series HAS to be The Pacific
Um, this is quite the journey you're starting here. Be prepared. Always remember you're watching actors portray real people.
As we say here in Texas; Y'all be safe.
Who does the army trust the most? Airborne! Who do the ladies love the most? Airborne! Who do the Nazis fear the most?? Airborne!!
After this, you should watch From the Earth to the Moon. t was an HBO mini series produced by Tom Hanks about the Apollo missions (excluding Apollo 13 – Hanks stared in a movie about that one).
Was looking forward to this! My all time favorite series, thank you!
Jumping is easy… the landing🤣🤣🤣 , then, getting dragged by the wind!😂😂😂
The captions at the end of the episode were a real letter handed out to Allied Forces on the eve of the European invasion (D-Day). The Airborn divisions were sent in ahead of the landing craft with ground troops. It was the Airborn's job to take out targets behind the beaches, weakening the enemies and cutting off reinforcements while working their way back to the beachhead. Given how new paratroopers were in the concept of warfare things did not go entirely to plan, but from the start, the mission was to be dropped behind enemy lines and be surrounded by the enemy. They knew that would be the outcome no matter what.
you guys are in for a good time with this series
In my opinion this is one of the greatest things ever put on film. God bless you both for being willing to take this journey. You're in for one heck of a ride!
I cant wait to watch this again with ya'll. This is far and away my favorite TV series ever.
Best docu-series (true story too) ever done. Of course, Hanks and Spielberg crap golden cufflinks, so you know goin in that it's gonna be good.
The first episode is a bit slow, but it kind of has to be to establish the scenario and people. But later episodes are amazing. And there are a couple that require kleenexes!
Easy Company men were assigned to jump BEHIND enemy lines so they are not hitting the beaches like others. They explained it on the board that they will have to destroy the German gun posts behind enemy lines.
Thank you, guys

"Easy Company" was used to identify "E Company" using the military alphabet at the time.
Today we use "Echo" for E.
After this could you watch "The Pacific"?
It is a mini-series based on the same premise following a Marine platoon fighting the Japanse in the pacific theatre of operations of WWII.
You guys are going to love this. Just keep in mind that every single older man you see at the start of each episode is actually the “real” characters. Their identities will be revealed at the end.
Just remember that this is a true story, it’s not made up. They got some small details messed up but for the most part, what you see is what actually happened. This is not based on a true story, this is a true story! Much love to you guys! You complement each other very well. Keep smashing it! Blessings and love from Wales, UK.
Dropping a like and comment on the re-upload to help out the algorithm. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
So from the time i was 17 yrs old back in 1993 every Jan at the Battle of the Bulge Reenactment in Fort Indiantown GAP, PA with E/ 506th living history unit we had almost all the org. Troopers with us (along with Troopers from other Airborne units, and at other events during the year) in our Barrack's and at the public battle. it was this event were i grew up Drinking Prop Blast listing to stories , laughing and singing with these Troopers. God i miss them scalawags those late night drunk Grunt to Grunt talks sitting on bunks with canteen cups of Prop blast and it was this event were XXXX read the letter he got from Tom Hanks asking permission to do it. then he asked us what we thought and we shouted a big HELL YES!! lifting our drinks 100+ Drunken Troopers cheering, them were some epic hangovers
This is an Amazing series, if you like this they also made The Pacific and also a good WW2 movie is U-571.
50 dollars in 1941 was $1,023
So that's $2,046 a month.
$10000 is $204653
@19:18 That was the First Sergeant (Highest Ranking Non-Commissioned Officer in the Unit) delivering the non-judicial punishment to Lt. Winters. That's why his insignia on this cap was different than the Commissioned Officers. As a 3rd Generation Paratrooper, this series is significant to me. These men and my Grandfather and Father lead the way for my future service in THE Division from the late 80s to 2001.
So happy to see you taking this on. You are in for an emotional roller coaster, my friends!
