And, yes, Richard Speight met "Sweet Faye Tanner" (Embry?) in 2001 at the Niagra River memorial to "Skip" and Fritz Niland.

Bring Back, bring back, oh, bring back my bomber and me, and me...

The guy that plays Norman Dyke is Peter O Meara, He is from Thurles Co. Tipperary Ireland about 10km from my hometown of Templemore. My grandfather was a member of the British Homeguard in London during the blitz. He was married in London to a Kerry woman. My grandmother was in several air raids shelters during the war and expecting my mother. Came back to Tipperary in 52. His Brother was RAF.

A Love Story..."Sweet Faye Tanner"...Faye Tanner was Skip Muck's girlfriend and they pledged to wed each other at the end of the war. No doubt heartfelt love letters were exchanged. Obviously, the sentimental words were shared with Easy Company, because Luz mocks her and Muck. But I call B.S. on Luz, because many would love hearing such letters, and wish THEY had a "Sweet Faye Tanner," especially ones that would declare they didn't want to hear them anymore. They could only dream and be a little envious. Well, Skip's death struck Faye the hardest, as she wrote to a few members of the company. She married in 1950, a good man who actually encouraged her to never forget. Then, in the 1990's, she was interviewed as a celebrity when the book came out, and especially the Series. She met up with Easy Company veterans in 1995 at a reunion in Ft. Campbell, Kentucky. A Mother and Grandmother, who after 50 years had never forgotten her first Love. There were lots of shared tears...
