Band of Brothers (2001)
There was a time when the world asked ordinary men to do extraordinary things.
Incorporating insights from first-hand accounts, personal journals, and letters of Easy Company survivors, Band of Brothers (2001) vividly portrays the journey of these soldiers from intensive paratrooper training in Georgia to the war's conclusion. As an elite rifle company, they parachuted into Normandy on the dawn of D-Day, fought in the Battle of the Bulge, and bore witness to war's unspeakable horrors. The exceptional courage and fear they experienced transformed them into legendary figures. This TV show is adapted from the widely-praised book of the same title by Stephen E. Ambrose.
