This is a series that will always stay with you. The soldiers telling their stories in the intro makes it so much more personal. Every person involved in this project did their job , you really do feel like you are going with them during each battle, loss and gain.
Winters speech makes Blithe stand up, Spears speech makes Blithe a warrior. He went on to fight in the Korean war and was twice decorated for gallantry. Blithe died in 1967
This definitely brings out the emotions. I think this should be a required watch for kids in H.S.. It would change a lot of opinions they have on giving up freedoms seeing what kind of sacrifices have been made for us to have them. I appreciate you guys sharing this journey. God Bless our troops
The German tanks were from the 2SS panzer division that arrived at Normandy pretty scattered. They hooked up with the German fallschirmjagers ( paratroopers) in an counter attack.
When the US 2nd armored arrived the panzers were forced to retreat because they were quite outnumbered. Only Easy company hanged tough against the counterattack while the other two companies beat feet.
Blithe actually did survive…. He died in 1957 …he had fought with the Airborne in Korea, earning a bronze and silver star.
Seen an interview of Major Winters that explained this discrepancy with the series. ❤ 🇺🇸
We love the reactions so much😊👍✌️
This is one of the greatest World War 2 portrayals ever, love seeing your reaction to it. Another you might appreciate is the movie Fury, with Brad Pitt.
Reel talk! World War II created my MOS in the Army. Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD). The movie Hurt Locker is about EOD in Iraq starring Jeremy Renner. Seeing how previous wars have been fought and looking how the Global War on Terrorism (GWoT) was I am thankful for all the equipment we did end up having. First deployment we had very few up armored vehicles. By my fourth deployment there were excellent armored vehicles and robotics. When we got ambushed the dude in one of the Strykers engaged the remote controlled crew served weapon. Watched it on a screen and pushed a button. We fighting different every war. Trench warfare, guerilla warfare, to Asymmetric warfare. I love how you guys approach your reactions. Open hearts and very respectful, and Asia's hands always makes it better.
It was Steven Spielberg for both Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, and The Pacific. Also, I that blindness thing is a real thing. I volunteered a hospital for vets and one of them went blind on D-Day. He was still blind just from seeing all the terrible things. Some people's brain just say "You've seen enough" and turns off your eyes.
"Band of Brothers"
Knowing how Blythe was mistakenly displayed, at the end of this episode, bothered me. I had to get to realizing the mistake was little, in the scheme of things. And, Blythe was as much the many other men in ww2 as the one who held the name.
After you finish try pacific
Need some more Breaking Bad. It’s been way too long
My two bosses are very interested in history so they traveled together from Norway to France last week to visit the historical places in Normandie. Kinda crazy to think about that they will walk around in the areas where these events really happened.
Hi guys if you like ww2 films you have to see MIRACLE IN ST ANNA
This film is based on the story of a company of Black American soldiers called the Buffalo company who fought against German SS in the Italian city of Sant Anna in Tuscany
FYI, the end of the episode gets it wrong. Albert Blithe survived the war and died in 1967.
The moment you signed the contract with the army, you effectively signed away your life. Blythe cannot acknowledge this, and so, he acts like a civilian in a combat zone. He needed a dose of reality to make him understand that not only was he in great danger, but he was also a great liability to the men around him, by acting the way he did..
He is in a war. it is a very simple situation. Kill the bastard that is trying to kill you, or let him kill you. There is no in-between
Albert Blithe didn't die in 1948. He served with the Airborne in Korea and ended his service with the Silver Star & Bronze Star (with 2 oak leaf clusters).
Its going to be a tough series to get through my friends but ill be here sharing it with you both. We need to see this part of our history, we can't forget it.
the white powder they put on wounds is sulfa powder, it's an antibiotic that was replaced when penicillin started to be mass produced.
Carwood Lipton was born and raised in Huntington WV, the town I went to college in (Marshall University). I was born and raised in Charleston WV, about fifty miles away. Small world here. Never met him, but I wish I had. Special generation of men and women.
Spears is an interesting character in the series. He is very much the opposite of Winters in his approach/philosophy…But very capable. The interviews with the real guys is my favorite part of the series.
So happy you guys are watching this. A favorite since it first came out on HBO so long ago. You guys will need a few tissues. Thank you for honoring our veterans. Please do more and fast! Next series you should watch is The Pacific. Also from Tom Hanks and Steven Speilberg.
The guy who played Blithe gave one hell of a performance.
