Band of Brothers Discussion: Episode 10 (Points)
Today we talk about the tenth episode of Band of Brothers (Points). We talk about the interesting aspect of going from intense combat to peace in a matter of days or weeks and how some can handle that when others can't. We also spend some time talking about the idea of legacy and how these elite warriors went home and picked up life right where they left off. A few other areas we hit on below:
- Emotions when they hear the war in Europe and then the Pacific is over
- MAJ Winters volunteering to fight in the Pacific
- Losing confidence after leaving the military
- Serving in a company of heroes
Sayre was a Ranger-qualified Infantry Officer and served as a platoon leader for the entirety of a twelve month deployment to Zhari District, Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne Division’s 2nd Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment during the troop surge of 2010-2011.
