    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      A huge tactical mistake the Germans made on Bastogne was when they would make an attack, they would attack at only one place and with small forces, usually company sizes. They also had no idea that the Americans had little or no ammo left for their rifles and artillery pieces. Had they known this, they could have easily run over this position.
    • Goofs
      When the second pair of P-47s strafes the Easy Company men who are standing in the open by the red smoke there are two lines of bullet strikes shown as the soldiers hustle back behind the tree line. The P-47 carried four .50-caliber machine guns in each wing, but they were not pointed directly ahead but were all angled inward to aim at a convergence point several hundred yards ahead of the airplane, so there should NOT have been two lines of bullet strikes OR two groups of four bullet strikes, but a wide stream of bullets striking the ground.
    • Quotes

      Cpl. Eugene Roe: Oh Lord, grant that I shall never seek so much to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, or to be loved as to love with all my heart.

    Almost Gut Wrenching 9/10
    For the life of me, can't really comprehend how 600 out of 5000 voters, rated this episode a 1/10. The weighted mean still sits at 8.7 out of 10, but still there are almost 600 viewers out there giving this the WORST possible score. Anyone comprehend this ? Is the story too dramatic ? Too painful to watch ? Too realistic ? Too cinematic ? Are these 600 Europeans that hold a grudge ? Whatever it is, it's somewhat baffling.

    My stepfather had this series collection on VHS. He's a retired history teacher who is extremely picky about what he reads and watches. Mostly sports, history/biography, and current events. I knew this was a special production, but I never got around to watching it until now. I served 4 years in the USMC and I feel thankful I never experienced war.

    Granted this can be a tough episode to sit through, but not for reasons that support a dreadful RATING. What's the problem ? Anyone know why 12% of the voters despise this episode or movie ?
