And we won't come back till it's over, over there

I have stuck with Harry until the very end. 23, living in Chicago, and attempting to turn my love of history into a career. My fondest wish is to visit the 1940s. Grew up in CA. Love classic movies, WWII, Lauren Bacall, and WHITE SOX baseball. I post/re-blog a LOT about Harry Potter, WWII, Band of Brothers, and The Pacific. If you don't enjoy history, I don't think you'll enjoy this blog. :) Mini-series: Band of Brothers, The Pacific, Generation Kill, Pride and Prejudice TV shows: Vampire Diaries, Nikita, Golden Girls, Big Bang Theory, Pretty Little Liars Harry/Ginny, Ron/Hermione, Michael/Nikita, Stefan/Elena, Joey/Pacey, Leckie/Vera, Mr. Darcy/Elizabeth, The BoS girls are everything that is beautiful. Love you all. Kayla is the sexual tension to my X-Men: First Class. Courtney is the sizzuhs to my Roe. Erika is the K to my C. Jessie is the Cajun accent to my Roe.

So apparently the make up in The Iron Lady was better than the make up in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2…

Anyone planning on a BoB rewatch?

I don't know if I can. Watching it is already an emotional thing, but so soon after losing Buck...wouldn't be able to handle it.

Blood on the Risers: For Buck and every member of Easy Company who is no longer with us.

And he ain't gonna jump no more...

ugh Erica I have been thinking about this ever since I heard the news. I am so worried for Malark and Bill and Babe. I know they’re probably hurting right now.

I think....and I hate to say this, especially since I don't know how any of them are doing right now - they are probably accustomed to losing their men. Not that they are doing well, mind you. But they are getting up in years and it must not have been wholly unexpected. I think losing Winters was a difficult blow as well.

I feel awful. :(

What a crappy Sunday this has turned out to be.

I know Buck is now with all the other members of Easy, as well as his wife Donna. But I think of the members of Easy still on earth - Malark in particular, who really loved Buck - and I just hope they are okay and safe in the knowledge that Buck is in a better place.

“Second platoon was indeed ‘blessed’ to have Buck Compton as our leader. He was a quiet and strong officer who, above all, listened and talked to the men under his command. I could never say enough to express my thanks and admiration for Buck Compton.” - William ‘Wild Bill’ Guarnere

Rest in peace Lt. Lynn ‘Buck’ Compton, you were a true hero. You will be greatly missed.

Rest in peace, Buck.

Always loved you, Buck.

God bless you. Say hi to Skip and Winters and everyone for me.

Someone in class had fried chicken and white bread and now it's all I want.

Rami Malek is currently breaking my heart just by being at the breaking dawn premiere.

Why Rami why

If we must die, let it not be like hogs Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot, While round us bark the mad and hungry dogs, Making their mock at our accursed lot. If we must die, O let us nobly die So that our precious blood may not be shed In vain; then even the monsters we defy Shall be constrained to honor us though dead! O kinsmen! We must meet the common foe! Though far outnumbered let us show us brave, And for their thousand blows deal one death blow! What though before us lies the open grave? Like men we’ll face the murderous, cowardly pack, Pressed to the wall, dying, but fighting back!

- Claude McKay, "If We Must Die"
