Band of Brothers - Episode 1
I watched the first episode of Band of Brothers which is basically a series about Americans wanting to fight the Germans as paratroopers in the Easy Company. The episodes mainly covers the whole training process and building up the soldiers in Georgia. They want to clean out the group and get the ones who will make it and not quit. Lt. Sobel in the beginning was very hard on his group and simple things caused his regiment to get their weekend passes revoked. Lt. Sobel has kind of a bad attitude about everything almost, though and ends up getting into a little “competition” with another officer. The episode also really shows how the soldiers are in it together and are “brothers.” One of the soldiers was sent out to run after not satisfying his Lt. but his fellow solders ran with him. The episode ends with the Easy Company going out on their first assignment.
I really enjoyed this episode actually and might end up watching more of the series. I liked how they showed how the soldiers really are “brothers” hence the name Band of Brothers. They’re a family away from their real families.
