Band of Brothers

Love the show but this site is bs. Bought the first episode after struggling to enter my info into a glitchy poorly set up page, and then when I go to hit play, it says I can go ahead and buy it on YouTube. 🤔 So, confused, I go to YouTube, see that I’ve purchased the episode but “it’s not available on this device”. There was no mention of that before when I was paying of course. Honestly makes me wish for hard copies DVDs again. Sites like these seem great but is it worth all the bs you have to wade through? (I gave one star because I had to but it’d get no stars if I had a choice)

It got a smidge confused concerning the date of Hitler's death and where they were at the time, but aside form that it's a pretty darn good series. Blithe didn't die either, not form his wounds, anyway. He went on to serve in Korea if I'm not mistaken. It also doesn't give Lieutenant Norman Dike enough credit. He was shot in the shoulder and disoriented during that particular charge. He later went on to do extremely heroic things with other units, or maybe he'd done those things earlier in the second world war. Still a good story though. It's enjoyable for people looking for a bit of action with no interest in history, and it's also pretty good for people who enjoy history.

Between Band of Brothers and The Pacific, you get the most realistic, well acted dramas about WWII thus far. I will be watching the mini-series' for years to come. Also regarding Lt. Norman Dyke, first remember he is connected to someone high up at division headquarters. And in regards to his Bronze Stars for "supposedly brave actions thus far in the war, let us all remember Douglas MacArthur receiving the medal of honor for running out on the Philippines and his men. It's sadly true that people have been awarded medals, because of powerful friends. I will take Carwood Lipton's word regarding Dike as accurate.
