Band Of Brothers
Band of Brothers
The Band of Brothers are the men from easy company 2nd battalionor 101st airborne division assigned to the 506th parachute infantry regiment.They fought in the great from 1942 to 1945 they were the best. They fought through the whole war until the end that's how the band of brothers are.
Easy Company was a term that became known to the public through the HBO TV series "Band of Brothers".However, Easy Company is a common term used within the military during WW2 and even up through today. Each Infantry Regiment was made up of 12 Companies that were identified by Letters: Company A, Company B, Company C...etc.When speaking over the radio, letters were pronouced using the phonetic alpabet. Thus, Company A would be called Company Able or Able Company. Company E was Easy Company. The book "Band of Brothers" was about Company E of 506 Parachute Infantry Regiment, of the 101st Parachute Infantry Division. But there was an Easy Company in every regiment of every infantry division.Alternate Question: What are some of the famous quotes from Easy Company?This question was combined with this one because it is assumed that this refers to the TV series "Band of Brothers". Since every infantry unit had an Easy Company, this Q was too vague. Also, Assume that this refers to quotes from the TV Show and not the real paratroopers. For the real story, I recommend the book "Band of Brothers". Quotes from the TV Series "Band of Brothers""Where the %%%L is Monte Cassino?" Sgt Guarnere, on reading that his brother was killed in action."We are Airborne; we are supposed to be surrounded." Capt. Winters
There is no Jose Seward listed as a member of Easy Company, 506th PIR, 101st Airborne division.
Very realistic. Spielberg and Hanks have really taken the true stories of the 101st Airborne Easy Company (Band of Brothers) and the 1st Marine Division (The Pacific) into something that is out of this world. If you like to hear about true stories of real people in World War II, then The Pacific and Band of Brothers is definitely your choice.
The book "Band of Brothers" was published by Simon & Schuster in 1992. It was written by historian Stephen E. Ambrose and tells the story of Easy Company, 506th Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division, during World War II.
The poem with the lines "Rest easy sleep well your brothers" is from the song "Brothers in Arms" by the band Dire Straits. Mark Knopfler, the lead vocalist and guitarist of the band, wrote the song.
"Easy Company" does not define a unit outside its regiment. If the reference is to Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, as featured in the series Band of Brothers, they arrived at Bastogne (note spelling) which is in South-east Belgium, near the Luxembourg border, on the 18-19th Dec 1944, which they defended, with other troops, until and after being reached by allied troops on the 26th December.
Seen as it is all based on true events told by the people who were there, i would say pretty correct. At least the bear bones of the stories are anyway.
