Just a reminder, this is a watch-a-long so you do need to bring your own copy of the episode to see it, there is no PIP. There are a few visual cues and a timer to help you sync up

Because the opening title breaks up the open of the episode, I gave a couple extra visual keys to sync up. Hope it's not too complicated.

About the morphine conversation, did you realize in Saving Private Ryan that when the medic got shot, they overdosed him on purpose?

Drew

When Winters shouts "SPEIRS!" I get chills every time. You know shit is about to go down. Speirs is so god damn cool.

Sean Clonch

Lt. Ed Shames was the last surviving Easy officer. Died in 2018

What a fantastic episode. Speirs!!! Wow!! Scary dude, but very effective. lol When Winters want to go in, but instead had to send Speirs, and he was ready for it, was a moment of inspiration. Then that run thru enemy line...damn!!! I totally understood what he meant when he implied that he let the stories unfold about him, because I think it kept him focused, and it kept the others at a distance, which works well for him. Not for everyone, of course, but for him it did. Lieutenant (former Sgt) Lipton became my favorite of E company (besides Winters, of course). He really did hold his brothers together in the best way possible. Nikki, I agree. Dyke is a human being, and his family needs all the consideration when speaking of him. If anything, I blame the higher-up's decision to put him there - where he clearly didn't belong - just because of his connections. Great episode! Great reaction!

When it comes to Lt. Norman Dyke he has gotten a bad rap, this is from the band of brothers wiki, In the series, Lieutenant Dike is portrayed as being an incompetent coward. However, in real life he performed many acts of heroics. For example, Dike was awarded a Bronze Star for his action at Uden, Holland, with the 101st Airborne Division between 23 and 25 September 1944, in which he “organized and led scattered groups of parachutists in the successful defense of an important road junction on the vital Eindhoven (sic)-Arnhem Supply Route against superior and repeated attacks, while completely surrounded." Dike was awarded a second Bronze Star for his action at Bastogne, in which "he personally removed from an exposed position, in full enemy view, three wounded members of his company, while under intense small arms fire" on 3 January 1945. In preparation for the 13 January 1945 attack on Foy, Belgium, E Company was attached to the 3rd Battalion, 506th PIR. Division Headquarters ordered the attack to begin at 0900 hours. During the assault, Carwood Lipton, at that time the company's first sergeant, described Dike as having "fallen apart." Clancy Lyall stated that he saw that Dike had been wounded in his right shoulder and that it was the wound, not panic, that caused Dike to stop. Dike survived the assault, and eventually returned to the rear in the company of a medic. Afterwards, he was transferred to 506th Regimental Headquarters to become an assistant operations officer. Dike then moved on to become, as a captain, an aide to General Maxwell Taylor, Commanding General, 101st Airborne Division. He later served in the Korean War.

Politics has been a part of the military for a long time. My paternal grandfather entered the Army before the war and worked his way through the system to receive many promotions before the USA entered the conflict with Nazi Germany. He ended up serving in the pacific theater (I’m lucky enough to have the letters he sent back to my grandmother during the war and it paints a very unique picture of what happened to him while actually in combat during the war). He served in Korea too. He was up for a promotion to Brigadier General and attended an event with my grandmother at the home of the three star general’s home. My grandmother got very, very drunk, ended up on a table whereupon she removed her belt and swung it like a lasso. Broke a vase and and some other important items to the General and his wife’s home. Needless to say, though my grandfather was considered a ‘lock’ for BG, he did not receive it because of my grandmothers antics. My grandfather never held it against my grandmother but it disappointed him. So I understood, in particular, when the men of Easy Company when Dike came in with virtually no combat experience - yet was deemed their leader for a while.

Just an FYI -- a lot of the actors did get to meet the real people and talk to them, etc. Some of the the real guys were on the set giving advice. They held a premiere in Normandy and flew in all of the surviving Easy Company soldiers to Normandy for the premiere -- there was a big ceremony, etc. The video of it is on YouTube. Also they brought all of the guys to the Emmys and Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks brought Winters up on stage to accept the Emmy for best show. Also some of the old guys have a small cameo background appearance here and there. Tom Hanks also has a small back ground cameo in episode 9. You will really like the actual documentary of Easy Company called "We stand alone together". It is great and has all of the survivors telling their stories and showing pictures, etc.

Also as to why Lipton wasn't made the leader of Easy was because he was an Enlisted man, granted the highest rank you could go at the time (First Sergeant) and his job was to be the senior enlisted to the company commander which is an Officer (which you could only really become if you had some sort of college education), to put in perspective in todays time a Company Commander (Captain) has at least 5-6 years of service where there First Sergeants have on average 15 plus years of service

agreed, and I cant remember where I heard it, because I have seen all of it so many times but when it came to the book when he sat down to talk to the vets, people asked him how he got them to talk so openly and his response was, I ask them to tell me about there best friend

im glad to knew Dike wasn't an idiot, i guess being wounded might have put him into shock which made him look like he just froze up, poor guy, i love this series but if thats how it was then they portrayed him a little unfairly then. But i guess the series is from Easy's point of view so thats how they saw it.

I understand incidents of bravery in which he won the Bronze Star multiple times, but I tend to side with the testimonies of the members of Easy when it comes to his day-to-day behavior.

As I wrote on YouTube, here again: A really good TV show. I haven't seen her for years either, and only when you both started reacting to it. Because of course I'm a bit divided. My grandfathers fought on the German side and one of my grandfathers, who fought the Russians in the east for 4 years, never really processed these experiences, basically he was traumatized his whole life. My father told me that my grandfather was only able to talk about some of the terrible experiences in the war when he was drunk. And from my family's point of view, there is at least one nice anecdote. My father is married to a Russian woman and her grandfather lived and fought where my grandfather also fought on the German side. These two men faced each other as enemies and 50 years later their descendants got married. And therefore my comment on this episode, which went down in history as the Germans' Battle of the Bulge. From a military point of view it was completely pointless. The war was long lost. It was a completely pointless slaughter of many too mostly young men, especially on the German side, where in the end even 10 year olds had to fight. All that could have been prevented, but the German leadership under Hitler were fanatics who simply refused to admit that the war was lost and so millions of people on both sides had to die for over 1 year. Old people, women, children and of course the soldiers. This entire second world war was a great shame and will weigh on the Germans for generations to come, and I don't want to write about war crimes at this point.

I always wonder if Dyke is supposed to be high functioning autistic. His tics, the way he talks, his looking away from the people he talks to, the awkward conversation with Lip. Him just being an incompetent nervous coward just doesn't seem like he would make it that far.

Please just watch the intro. It makes syncing so much easier. It's literally the best intro in television so it's not like a chore to watch. I literally can not sync with this episode, I'm always a second or 2 off. You said you added extra visual cues....I don't think you did.

What about syncing with the time code on the screen? Is that not working? And I did add extra and they’re all longer than normal.

Hey guys if no one else has mentioned it, there is a vlog series on YouTube that Ron Livingston (Nixon) recorded. You can either watch the whole thing (one hour) or 12 parts (recommended). It follows them through their first meetings and all through the intense training the actors had. https://youtu.be/AKySytn3sj0

Nicholas Rothert
>>61842788

I know it can be tough, it's a long intro. I would highly recommend you do watch it before Episode 10 as every shot is directly from an episode of the series, makes the last episode even more impactful...if that makes sense.

There is also an HBO Band of Brothers documentary called We Stand Alone Together where they interview the men of Easy Company. https://youtu.be/z6j_nop4wh0 Some are those that they didn’t talk to during the show.

I saw above someone mentioned Duke received the bronze star medal. I have seen countless shitbag officers get that award for doing absolutely nothing while the 11B/C class infantrymen actually engaging get an army commendation medal or get scared over altogether. Kind of like all the POGs who get a combat action badge because a mortar or rocket lands 100 meters outside the perimeter.

As much as you guys love the veteran interviews I also highly recommend watching We Stand Alone Together. You will need tissue.

here to comment because you speak my language. Haven't seen POG or alike on here....I forgot I was on patreon, thought it was FB for a min. Anyways, was a grunt wife. so... I am echoing ur statement.

Ashley

one of my fav eps! The brotherhood portrayals, brings the most emotion for me, cause it's true. Shitty leaders in combat is true, and on this level of gravity. So is that one guy in every deployment that is shrouded in more lore than reality, but lives on, an enigma, as a man among men, like Spears. The closing shot at the church, and the effect of the disappearing soldier, showing whom they lost...was also beautifully done. Spears' run through German lines is forever heroism.
