Band of Brothers: We Stand Alone Together.

[Translating a speech a German General is giving to his men after they all surrendered] Liebgott: "Men, it's been a long war, it's been a tough war. You've fought bravely, proudly for your country. You're a special group. You've found in one another a bond, that exists only in combat, among brothers. You've shared foxholes, held each other in dire moments. You've seen death and suffered together. I'm proud to have served with each and every one of you. You all deserve long and happy lives in peace". This tumblr is dedicated to the mini-series Band of Brothers and members of Easy company. I don't take credit for any of the material posted here. Feel free to submit something! My personal tumblr

When you talk to an officer, you say “sir”.

SGT. Christenson: Yeah, and there’s another one about him giving cigarettes to twenty German POW’s before killing ‘em. Ken Webb: He shot twenty POW’s? Frank Perconte: Well, actually, I heard it was more like thirty.

‎”And basically I have one message to all. Hang Tough. And I mean by saying Hanging Tough, do your best every day. Whether it’s in school or at your job or wherever you are. Do your best every day. You don’t have to know all the answers, no way, don’t expect that of yourself, just do your best. Satisfy yourself, so at the end of the day, you can look in the mirror, after you’ve brushed your teeth, and say honestly to yourself, today I did my best. And if you do that you’re being honest and everything is going to be okay.”

I think I would have done a good job in any outfit, but Easy Company made me who I was. They brought out the best in me. If you had anything good in you, they brought it out. That is why as I look back over the six decades since the war, I find that as I meet, interact, and talk to literally thousands of people, I am always measuring them against and hoping to find men like these who served in Easy Company.

Band of Brothers: Favorite character (2): Captain Ronald Speirs (Matthew Settle) ♠

“We’re all scared. You hid in that ditch because you think there’s still hope. But Blithe, the only hope you have is to accept the fact that you’re already dead. And the sooner you accept that, the sooner you’ll be able to function as a soldier’s supposed to function: without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it.”

He's my favorite, always :)

Band of Brothers: Favorite character (3): Sgt. “Wild” William J. Guarnere. (Frank John Hughes) ♠

“Once we get into combat, they only people you can trust is yourself and the fella next to you.”

“Soldiers of the Regiment! Tonight is the night of nights. Today, as you read this, you are en route to the great adventure for which you have trained for over two years.”

Band of Brothers: Favorite character (1): Major Richard D. Winters (Damian Lewis) ♠

“If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones. You take the tough ones too. A good leader has to understand the people that are under him, understand their needs, their desires or how they think a little bit. He always made the right decisions along the way. He was a real soldier. Some of the officers… I don’t think I’d follow them into water. But he was one of the best. He went right in there and he didn’t… He never thought of not being first or sending somebody in his place. I don’t know how he survived… but he did.”

“As different in temperament as Nixon and I were, he was the one man to whom I could talk. He provided an outlet that allowed me to unburden myself as a combat leader. ‘Nix’ and I completely understood each other.”— Dick Winters
