Salute to the brave Belgians for helping those downed pilots. They risked execution by the Germans.

Seeing you get emotional got me more emotional than when I watched it alone 🤔

This one is kinda my favorite so far. Partly because I can see where they are going I think, using each episode to address a different theme. First two were great intros giving the laymen viewers a lot of details without being overwelming, then the reality of what their combat was like in episode 3, this one touched unexpected themes for me, watching planes go out, then waiting to see who comes back, or doesn't and just hoping the last time you saw a friend wasn't for the last time. Then the exchange where bucky is coming ti grips with what it is he's really doing to people on the ground. BoB and Pac were soldiers against soldiers, but here there's a lot of civilians he's dropping bombs on and that's a tough reality to accept.

Hi Jacqui, thanks so much for this series of videos. First, just so you know, as far as Curt is concerned, it is 100% not a misdirect. He’s unfortunately gone. Historically, he was KIA on the Regensburg raid. May his memory be eternal. Did you happen to see the 100th Bomb Group foundation gave Barry Keoghan a framed photo of Curt and a note from the Biddick family? Buck and Bucky, on the other hand (based on what we see in the opening credits of the show) are going to end up behind the wire, most likely. I fear for Col. Harding (group CO). He is starting to lose it. He, in fact, is going flak happy. They haven’t showed it, but in addition to his leadership role, he flew several missions himself, so he not only has that stress, but he’s dealing with the loss of so many men he’s responsible for. I mean, his behavior at the party really showed it. Helen (the Red Cross lady) is so sweet. The way she accepts the pain of her job is so touching. She’s not only comforting these guys but serving as a reminder that home still exists and is worth fighting for. It was interesting for Bucky to see the bombed out house. I’ve read accounts that American airmen who saw the destruction the Luftwaffe wrought in London hardened in their views. They came back angry at the Germans and wanting payback. I agree with you that this episode, while hardly a happy romp, was a refreshing change. We really got to learn a lot more about the people involved and get in their heads.

Another well-done episode, being able to hit you despite there being no real shots of being in the bombers with anyone (at least not while flying). Did you catch how the Dutch Resistance guys caught the German infiltrator? It’s because he wrote the date in the European way (day-month-year) rather than how Americans do it.

Personally I don't think Buck is dead. I can of course be wrong, but not all scenes shown in the intro and the trailers, that include Buck, have happened yet. There is a scene in one of the trailers in which Buck fights hand to hand in a snowy forest. And the intro shows a scene of Bucks silhouette stepping out of a train with a German soldier holding a rifle aimed at him. And the intro also shows Buck walking in a group of people, while it's snowing so I think he might be trying to get back to England during the Hunger Winter of 1944. And because AppleTV is dumb, we already know for sure that Crosby isn't dead. Because even though they told his buddy Bubbles that Crosby didn't make it back, AppleTV was so stupid as to mention in the Episode 5 blurb that Crosby is getting promoted. So he is going to make it back somehow during next episode.

I had to go look up the real life stories of some of the characters after this episode. I wont spoil anything except that Meatball wasn't added for the show.

Here is something that's been gnawing at me with this series. Quite apart from the obvious aspect of chronicling the different parts Americans played in the biggest war in human history, the Spielberg-Hanks series have had unique themes. Band of Brothers is clearly about the bond that grew between the people who won the Second World War. The Pacific is about what it cost, physically and emotionally, to win it. What will be the overriding theme of this series? Also, I'm wondering if and how they will address the elephant in the room? That being the fact that, compared to what was originally promised by the strategists, the daylight strategic bombing campaign was a failure. It certainly had an important contribution to make to defeating the Nazis, but it didn't destroy their industry like it was supposed to, and it got a lot of Americans killed. They have to figure out some way, at the end of this series, to discuss it.

5,000 Allied airman escaped capture and returned to England with the help of resistance fighters. If captured resistance fighters faced torture and execution or prison camps. One Belgian teenage girl Monique Hanutte helped 140 airmen escape and return to England. She died Feb 20 2022 at age 101.

Stephen Knueppel

One rather horrifying fact is that the 8th Air Force lost more men KIA than the Marine Corps did, 26,000 killed. And you know the shit the Marines faced since you're watching the Pacific now.

Alex Amerling

Not gonna lie, I would be dancing the whole time with Meatball myself lol Such a cute doggo :)

Eric Serrano

I think I figured out how the resistance figured out there was an infiltrator. It if you look back he wrote the date as day then month then year whereas most Americans write it out month then day then year. Pretty sneaky. !

"He'll tell you." That's for damn sure 😁 . . . I remember a conversation in the bar at the O Club one place I was stationed with a fighter pilot who was clearly very impressed with himself and his flightsuit (pro tip: if you want to piss off a pilot, call a flightsuit "coveralls.") He told me all about how much the plane they trusted him with was worth, then looked down his nose and asked what they had entrusted me with. I smiled and said, "A couple of dozen human beings." I actually had some good friends who were pilots - others were definitely full of themselves, though most of them outgrew it by the time they were light colonels. The military still hasn't really come to terms with acknowledging PTSD. When I was 18 I was at the scene of a helicopter crash that killed about thirty Marines. I was there all day, helping recover the dead, and it gave me nightmares for twenty years. I can still see one of the bodies as clearly as I saw it then (46 years ago now) and I still can't stand the feeling of having my hands sticky. The attitude of the service at the time was "Just stay busy and don't think about it."
