Talking about reunions, most of the surviving members of 506th were sitting at nearby hotel when Major Richard "Dick" Winters accepted an Emmy Award when Band of Brothers won Best Mini Series at that year's Emmy Awards (2002). He spoken briefly to audience there and his men. Everyone Celebs there gave standing ovation to Winters and his men.

@natskivna 3 года назад

Growing up, I knew of course that my father had served in WWII. But as he never spoke of his experiences, I never heard much about them. My dad died in 1999, and Band of Brothers came out in 2001. I started to try to learn as much as I could about him and discovered he was also Airborne...Glider Trooper 194th Glider Infantry Regiment, 17th Airborne (my avatar here on You Tube is their shoulder patch)...and his first combat experience was about 10 miles further west of Foy in a little town called Flamierge at the same time Easy Company was fighting in Foy. This series made it possible for me to understand maybe just a little of what my dad experienced as an 18/19 year old man in 1945 and I will be grateful for it till the day I die. I only wish I knew more about his experiences. Maybe it's better I don't. I don't know. Cheers for the fine reaction. :)

@alangilbert6141 3 года назад

If you ever get the chance, go to the Silent Wings museum in Lubbock, Texas which is dedicated to the WWII glider program. When you see firsthand the gliders that men like your father flew in, your jaw will drop. Those planes were basically flying bricks. Once they were released from the towing plane, there was no going back. You hoped to land in one piece and then it was straight into action. True heroism.

@MothproofKT 3 года назад

My grandfather was also in WWII. I never had the pleasure of meeting him as he died before I was born, and he only shared one story from his time in the war. He was driving a flail tank up one of the beaches on D-Day when his buddy in the tank to him was hit with a mortar shell. To this day I’m still trying to find information about him so my Mum can learn more about the bravery and actions of her Dad. 22nd Dragoons is all I had to go on. It’s not easy finding information. There is an archives for the Dragoons in London somewhere so hopefully when it’s safer to travel for me again I can head over and find out more. Your Dad sounds like an amazing man. It’s good to hear you’ve found information about him after all these years.

Decades later the Screaming Eagle patch means just as it much back then, and mainly because of men like these. In early 2002 when I was leaving basic training and going into AIT I found out I was going to Campbell, to the 101. I had never been so proud in my life, loved every day of the 9 years I was there and I’ve missed it every days since then. 19.5 years in the Army and I yearn to be back in those first 9 years every day. Also, my company from OIF I in 2003 to through our trip to Afghanistan in 2011, we still have reunions. No matter the politics, the reasons, the crap back home… it’s always about us and our love for each other. ⛩

You’ve mentioned how good the casting was and I agree. I read a commentary years ago about the only time Dick Winters visited the set of Band of Brothers.

He said he couldn’t stay there “it was as if I had entered a room full of ghosts”

@rayharley597 3 года назад

Never seen a reaction yet where it's included that Winters is talking about Mike Ranney; one of the sergeants who 'mutinied' over Winters' potential court-martial. He was awarded a medal for his part in destroying the guns on D-Day and I think he ended the war as a Sergeant again, after being demoted for the mutiny. I watched the entire series again only a couple of weeks ago, and it still affects me deeply when Winters talks about what Ranney put in the letter to him. Fortunately the documentary finishes with Babe singing that song :-) kerk

@michaelstach5744 3 года назад

Myron “Mike” Ranney is buried at the Golden Gate National Cemetary, just south of San Francisco, close to where 380 and 280 come together. His grave is on the north side of the mound with the flag pole. He was a -art of the sergeant’s mutiny, awarded a Bronze Star for what he did on D-Day, jumped in Market Garden, wounded there and sent to hospital. If you are close drop by, pay your respects. He isn’t located from from Admiral Chester Nimitz and other heroes. I was sobered to be there.

My Grand fathers both served, One flying B-17s out of England from 43 to 45-6 Not shipping home till the Berlin air lift ended. My other Grandfather was an Engineering Officer on the KM Bismarck. He was with him from construction in 39 till he was sunk in May of 41. Every year those two went to the Memorial ceremonies together. They always said you my disagree with the politics, but after all is said and dun those who serve no matter what uniform they wore and served with honor where brothers, only those who did not get home where heroes.

@76JStucki 2 года назад

When Winters says (and I know he's quoting Mike Ranney, but the words could come from any member of the company) "I served in a company of heroes," at first you want to say "no, Major, you were absolutely a hero." And then it hits you-- to these men, they aren't the heroes. The heroes in their eyes, as Babe said, never came back. So when they say they served in a company of heroes, they're not thinking about the amazing things they did during the war. They're thinking of the guy who got hit right next to them, or the man who went into a building before it blew up. The guys who did their job and never got to come home. That look in Winters' eye at the end-- he still sees his fellow soldiers who didn't make it. Those are his heroes.

Even though the Easy Company guys are no longer with us, it is amazing that even 20 years later, the actors who portrayed them still get together and attend conventions, etc. "A company of heroes" quote was from a letter one of Winters former soldiers sent to him - Ranney. So it was not Winters' grandson that asked the question but Ranney's (to Ranney)....however I am sure Winters felt the same ways. By the way, about half (or a third) of the Easy Company actors are/were from Britain!!! Winters, Liebgott, Christianson, Doc Roe and several others - just nailed their American accents!!!!

I love the way you both (especially Nikki) got so emotionally involved and you both brought across to your viewers how much this series and the men of Easy Co. mean to you. I have so many books and biographies from these guys and I can't get enough of them. They mean so much to me as well, and I am English. There are also lots of clips on RU-vid of the real men and the actors, both separately and together. There were also interviews on Black Sky Radio with the actors. There is so much stuff out there on Band of brothers, that it seems never ending. Thank you very much for reactions, I enjoyed it immensely. Ps, you come across as such nice people.

Nikki's comment about them remembering every single detail like it's burned into their memory is so true. I have a great grandfather who landed on Juno Beach in the first assault wave as a combat medic, fought through Normandy, Holland (Nijmegen), Belgium, the Battle of the Sheldt, and into Germany. Before he passed, if you talked to him, he would often drift into talking about his memories of the war even if you were talking about something completely unrelated. The events were so incredible and intense that they absolutely were in ingrained into these heroes and the events were impossible to forget, even with advanced age.

At one of the reunions the German doctor whom they got to, well threatened to kill unless he did, operate on Sgt. Grant was invited. The doctor later told them he was thankful to have saved Grant and that they got him to do it. After all that death saving a life must have been cathartic

When the show won awards for HBO, the cast members showed up with some of the actual surviving members of Easy-Company. There are videos on RU-vid of the actors WITH the person they played on film talking about the bonds they formed with each other. There are even videos on RU-vid of the cast-members talking about the bonds THEY formed filming the show. I believe that you can even find a video of the Winters Memorial being dedicated in Normandy where Damien Lewis (who played Winters) gives a speech about how wonderful of a leader Winters was to his men. These men formed a bond that would never be broken. But they were such generous and wonderful men after the war, that even the cast who played them ended up forming a bond that couldn't be broken. Not just with themselves, but with the men of Easy Company as well.

I love watching your reactions, guys. One of things with a great reaction channel like yours is that we get to see things again but it's with new eyes as we go along with you. One word of warning about The Pacific, it is a *lot* darker and devoid of the sense of honourable warriors that you get from Band of Brothers. In large part that was because of the nature of the enemy. The Nazi's were as evil as we can imagine but the ordinary German soldier was just a man doing his job as best he could in large part and, lest we forget, Europe had been in a state of war for centuries so not only did we get very good at it but also developed an ethos, a set of 'rules', that made it less barbarous. The Japanese, for all the beauty of their culture in some ways, lacked any of that restraint and respect in war. The things they did make your skin crawl and that impacted on the forces fighting them who became as brutal as those they were facing. So go in a bit braced when you start watching it as it will likely sicken rather than inspire you.

I'm so happy that you did this. I watched it when it first came out. It still remains the best television show I've ever seen .The reality of it all. It's historical significance. The acting, direction and production value are all timeless. Once again. Thank you.💪🏾👍🏾🤎

It is truly a blessing that we were able to see and hear these amazing men, and have them recount their stories. I am taking a trip this summer to Normandy with my family. God Bless these men.

@TA-wg9oi Год назад

That sounds great Joe. We had a 9 week trip booked late 2020 to Normandy, Norway and the Mediterranean but Covid cancelled all our plans. We were to stay at Bayeux, 4 miles inland from the beaches and to re-trace the events of 6 June 1944 and a day trip into Paris on the train (Paris is very busy). We are looking at re-scheduling now everything seems to have calmed down. Enjoy the trip with your family mate. Best wishes from Australia.

In Guarnere's book he mentions when he went back to Bastogne a little kid asked what happened to his leg since it was gone and he told the kid he lost it somewhere in the woods and if he found it he would give him a gift, Said the kid came back later sad he couldn't find it and Bill just laughed

I’ve suggested it before on other BoB videos and I’ll resubmit it here. If you guys are ever in a traveling mood and want to experience some of the history of the Airborne and Special Operations then come on down to the museum in Fayetteville,NC. It has the history of not just the Airborne but also the Army Special Operations. It’s great learning experience of not just the 101st but also the 82nd airborne.

2nd this. I consider BoB, Pacific and GK to be the HBO war trifecta. All true stories, but very different perspectives and takeaways. Especially GK, which is a stark contrast to the former two, yet very important in order to understand what the current generation of war is like.

@@JaneNayes Your young.. You can tell! Spoken like a true uninformed leftist! Maybe research more and then speak about it! Is it the losing or bombing of innocents that bothers you cause every recent president has done that 10 fold, especially Obama and Biden! If its the bombing of innocents then you couldn't watch anything about any war! It's happened in every war ! Worse if its because, as you say, we lost! Hmm? There are alot of factors to why we pulled out that war! And perhaps we never did? Maybe it was expanded? And lost? I don't think we lost the Iraq war! How did we lose? I'd love to hear your explanation!! Too many people speak about things they truly don't know about today! I'm not saying its you but too many Americans really Take advantage of their freedom and the wonderful country America is! Too many have weak minds and couldn't see the indoctrination being done to them over the years telling you America is horrible and racist and capitalism is horrible all being done in our schools! Meanwhile, the people saying and teaching this don't believe it and drive home in one of their luxury cars to one of their homes, in nice expensive (each Home worth over 1 million), and if it's an African American its all the same except they always seem to buy and live in million dollar homes surrounded by white people they call racist and white supremacists!? Interesting! No,,, sad. Facts and research have seemed to just stop being the truth as long as on "FEELS" they no the real truth!! Sad.... If they actually did do a little research they would see the less and evilness people are spreading!

There is one final thing i want to share. As i was going through high school, and into university, it was the 50 year anniversary of various events. And i didn't at the time really appreciate what these events *meant*. It was all just history; things to learn. - 10th Grade: Germany invades Poland. - 12th Grade: Attack on Pearl Harbor - 2nd year university: D-Day - 3rd year university: VE and VJ It wasn't until i was university that i realized, "Oh my god, it's still going on?" I realized that it was an actual prolonged thing; as i almost relived it in real-time.

It was about a year of watching BoB when I was sitting in my mechanics office waiting for my car to be fixed. On his wall was a clipping regarding ****** ******** coming home as an Army member of E. Company. Asked why is this up here... mechanic said thats about his dad and dont make a big deal of it. Said his dad used to be strict SOB... and after the war, he just kept to himself, always quiet, and forgave a lot of things after coming back. I was stunned, honored and about to cry.

Yes Steve, probably THE best cast Screaming Eagle was Bill Guarnere. Frank John Hughes really knocked him out of the park. He said he was poked his jaw out a bit and worked on the accent, and he seriously brought the man to life. It was an astonishing performance.

Thank you for checking this out. Many reaction channels skip it. Thank you also for showing some great maturity and respect while watching this and the series. It's not like the vets are saints, but they accomplished some heroic feats and stories that are hard to imagine outside of Hollywood. Like you said while watching, it kind of goes over peoples heads when they are learning in HS, it's hard to appreciate something like that at that age.
