Saving Private Ryan is the best movie of all time I think of War probably
0:04
period, and Band of Brothers is probably the best show right about war.

Band of Brothers is a not very long book. I know they turned it
0:14
into a mini series on HBO. If you have the time Steven Ambrose's book
0:20
Band of Brothers. Most of those guys had never been in an airplane.
0:25
The very first time they went in an airplane, they jumped out of it.
0:28
Well, whoever you are right now listening to us, think about how
0:33
brave you have to the first time you ever walked on an airplane when you
0:36
were five or six years old, or fifty or sixty or however old you
0:39
were. Can you imagine the very first time you went up in the sky
0:44
jumping out of it. That's what those guys did and the story. I
0:48
mean again, i'd encourage you to read the book, but if you watch
0:51
the movie or the television series, you see what all those men were jumping
0:55
into in the Band of Brothers television show, which I think did a really

good job of kind of giving you an idea of what that visual would have
1:03
been like for so many of those guys. And they landed in very different
1:06
places. Because so many people were getting shot at weather was rough, they

were jumping with immense amounts of weight in their packs.
