Band Of Brothers episode 7 FULL REACTION

The most amazing part about this whole thing with Ronald Speirs is that not only did he run through enemy lines, but he was laughing and mocking the Germans as he was doing it. And he actually ran much further than the show depicted. 😂 So, believe it or not Speirs is actually highly toned down here. Lmao! The legend of Speirs is crazy. There is actually an interview where Winters says Stephen Ambrose was worried about insinuating Speirs’ killing German POWs and possible lawsuits. So Winters actually called Speirs and asked him straight up and Speirs admitted the rumors were all true.

So the actor that plays Skip Muk is particularly amazing in this episode as well. The story about him swimming across the Niagara and his sister and mother being upset at him was actually a true story. But the really cool part is that it was never intended to be in the script. The actor who played Skip actually spent a lot of time with the family of the real Skip Muk much like many of the actors for this show. He actually learned about this story and decided to implement it into his acting. It’s these little things that make this series more than a series and make it an actual experience. All of the actors went so above and beyond to learn about the men that they were playing and did such incredible justice to the families of these guys. I’m actually tearing up as I write this right now because it’s moving how important it was for them to tell the true story of these titans. It’s why Band of Brothers is a masterpiece. Also, sadly about 4 days after Skip Muk passed, his sister wrote him a letter saying “it had been a while since they had heard from him & hopefully he was okay”. She didn’t know yet that her brother had passed away.

I love this episode. It's one of my absolute favorites in the series. If I do have one small nitpick, though, it's at the end when Speirs is talking to Lipton, and it feels a little hand hold-y. When Speirs is talking about how the men have always had a good leader, and he's clearly talking about Lip, but Lip doesn't get it... and then Speirs says, "It was you, first sergeant." I would have enjoyed that last scene more without that line, because it was already very much implied, and I enjoy the fact that Lip is too humble to realize he's the guy Speirs is referring to. But like I said, that's a SUPER minor nitpick in a great episode of television.

As far as the accuracy of the show, Richard Winters sat with the screen writers for several months helping the writing and everything had to be approved by him. That doesn't mean it is 100% accurate, there were of course adaptations, etc. Possibly some different perspectives of memory, etc. They also had some of the veterans on the set in some of the episodes and they changed things based on what the guys on the set would say.

My grandfather Staff Sergeant Nemith served in Patton's drive to "rescue" the 101st Airborne. He was hit by a tree burst and suffered extensive wounds from shrapnal in his face and chest. He spent several months in the hospital and rejoined his unit in April for the final drive into Germany.

"He came back..." Spears is built different. Yank equivalent to "Mad" Jack Churchill. You guys would bloody love SAS Rouge Heroes, about the formation of the Special Air Service during WW2.

Will you do The Pacific after finishing BoB?

Found this bit of info just now coming from Winters' memoirs about when he had Speirs relieve Dike: In real life, Winters was not pulled back by Sink, here's the passage from his memoirs: “I’m going!” I yelled and I grabbed my M-1 and moved out to take command of Easy Company in order to get them moving again. I had only taken a few steps when I decided that my job was to lead the battalion, not a company. I turned around and walked back and there was Lieutenant Ronald C. Speirs, a natural killer, standing in front of me. “Speirs!” I said. “Take over that company and relieve Dike and take that attack on in.”

I've read about Winters commenting on Spears on the POW. I've also read that there were no prisoners (apart from officers) to be spared as it was the biggest invasion in human history, all the man power required and the world at stake.

Yeah, I don’t think a lot of reactors understand that parts when they see spears taking out the POWs. It was not practical or even possible to take prisoners in the middle of such an invasion. There’s a great book that’s out called “Fierce Valor: The True Story of Ronald Speirs and his Band of Brothers”. It’s an excellent read and one of my favorites in my library. Right next to my Richard winner memoirs. And right next to “Parachute Infantry” which are the memoirs of another soldier in the show that I don’t want to name because I don’t want to spoil any survivors for the guys. I can imagine you know who I’m talking about though. Lol.

Totally unrelated to this episode: But you guys are the just the best. Ive been rewatching the Harry potter series of yalls and I've been coming back to you guys ever since then. Related to the episode: This is my favorite episode other than 9. I know you'll enjoy it too. Of course as much as you can enjoy content knowing that it's subject matter is pretty horrible stuff but, regardless LETS GOOOO

If you gentlemen would like to see more of the actor that portrays Lt. Speirs (Matthew Settle), check out the miniseries "Into the West". It's a multigenerational story from the American West in the 19th century, told from the perspective of two families, one of white settlers and one of Native Americans. Matthew Settle is one of the main characters. I cannot recommend it enough. Hard to find though. Stars Beau Bridges, Irene Bedard, Balthazar Getty, Keith Carradine, Matthew Settle, Tyler Christopher, Simon Baker, Matthew Modine, Jessica Capshaw, Gary Busey, Lance Henriksen, Judge Reinhold, Rachael Leigh Cook, Will Patton, Keri Russell, Sean Astin, Josh Brolin, Zahn McClarnon, Christian Kane, Michael Spears, Warren Kole, Tonantzin Carmelo, Skeet Ulrich, Tom Berenger

Yeah, the phrase “hang tough” was actually a phrase that Richard Winters coined. I believe there’s actually a Winter book that’s entitled “hang tough”. If you ever get a chance to go back and rewatch this you’ll notice that not only Lipton says it one or two times, but Richard Winters says it multiple times throughout the whole series as well.

It might have spoiled the episode a bit, but last week you should have done the intro as: Somebody call a Medic..

The showrunners are definitely in a tough spot with "antagonists" like Sobel and Dike. I've seen some reactors get caught up in the writing concessions and start to actually hate on those characters. I can't really blame them, because at the end of the day it is a fictionalized version of the real people, though you can definitely start a debate on where a character ends and a real person begins in a mostly accurate-but-fictionalized retelling like this. It is also important to remember, and I am glad you guys bring it up, that, in the show's defense, it is all based on personal accounts of E company men. While some aspects of Sobel and Dike have been "enhanced" for storytelling purposes, the writers did not invent the disdain felt by many men of Easy just so they could have antagonists. They were definitely contentious figures even amongst the men themselves. I do also find it important to remember that Sobel and Dike were real people and real soldiers who joined the war of their own accord, and they deserve our respect as veterans of the US army, despite potential personal shortcomings. This is an account of the war mainly sourced by personal interviews and memoirs, which already will cause it to be colored by personal feelings, and that is even before it is changed through the writing process of a tv series. No one is a hero or villain to everyone, and the probable reality is that they were complicated men, as all people are.

As far as the "accuracy" on Sobel and Dike, keep in mind that the book/show was based on the statements of the surviving soldiers of Easy Company, many of them weren't officers obviously and their perspective on officers like Sobel and Dike might be or might not be skewed. The entire show is based on the soldiers' stories and not on what "exactly" happens if that makes any sense. Good example is Blithe where it was assumed that he died because the soldiers that were interviewed assume that he did. AFAIK Stephen Ambrose didn't do any research aside from his interviews and kept it as is. Lastly, in a book by two soldiers of E Company (I won't say who because of spoilers) called: Brothers in Battle, Best of Friends, Dike's portrayal is exactly how it was in the show. Dike and Sobel's portrayal may or may not be accurate but to at least some of the soldiers of E Company, it's exactly how it was.

PLEASE tell me you guys are going to do a “follow up” round table discussion after completing the series!!!! There is a plethora of knowledge out there and the majority of it is just as riveting as the series. I'm sure I won't be the only one recommending and dropping links after episode 10 lol. Would love to hear ya'lls take on everything AFTER learning some of this stuff NON SPOILER example- Timestamp 58:40-1:05:10 is writer Graham Yost, Matthew Steele (Speirs), and Rick Gomez discussing the production of EPIC Speirs run!! It leads into Graham Yost talking about the portrayal of Norman Dike. STOP at 1:05:10, tho!!!!! This is from a panel held at the National WW2 Museum a couple years back. The panel also includes the other 2 writers, Michael Cudlitz, Ross McCall (Liebgoot), and Shane Taylor (Doc Roe). I 100% recommend watching the entire thing but, only AFTER completing the series to avoid spoilers. I promise the clip between 58:40- 1:05:10 is SAFE to watch at the moment ☺️ https://youtu.be/o7E-CSTQb_U?si=WI9xQFYzBUFYb3NO

React to the pacific based on the same war different military organization

Really, Answer? American Dad?!?! What about Critters?! And Critters 2: The Main Course?! Didn't your momma raise you right?!? Kidding, of course. You probably weren't even alive yet. But I HIGHLY recommend you check them out. The cheese is strong with this one. I watch this series once every couple of years, but I play this episode every 4th of July. Not just because cranking up the sound from the battle drowns out the sound of fireworks, keeping my dogs from freaking out, but because itmakes me think of what my grandfather went through. He was an Army Air Corps lieutenant who flew 25 missions over Germany as a B24 pilot. I have a photo of him doing a handstand on top of a gun turret. He remains a hard act to follow. Have you guys seen Memphis Belle? That's my pops. Fun fact: It is estimated 443,417 men and women have given their lives in the pursuit and protection of Democracy since 1775. That is not including the 204,100 Americans who killed each other between 1861 and 1865 because of a huge number of ignorant, self-serving bigots, who cared more for profit than people, did not understand the part of our constitution that says "all men are created equal." Dishonoring our fallen troops and destroying the democracy they all believed in enough to give their lives for is a very dangerous situation. It won't be a Civil war, but it will be a revolution. Maybe we need a reset every 250 years?
