Band of Brothers is based largely on a book by Stephen Ambrose and is a collection of interviews and stories passed down regarding Easy Company. When Blithe was wounded the men of the company lost track of him and so assumed he died in 1948. Retractions and corrections made it into subsequent editions of the book but didn't make it into the television show. "Blithe was released from the Army Hospital October 8, 1945, which has been verified by his discharge paperwork at the end of World War II. He attended the 1st annual reunion of the 101st Airborne Division Association. He returned to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and started a career with Westinghouse Electric. Korean War and afterward Blithe also served in Korea with the 187th Airborne Regimental Combat Team where he was awarded a Bronze Star and a Silver Star for jumping behind enemy lines surrounded by a Chinese battalion[citation needed].[8] He was later assigned to the Military Assistance Advisory Group in Taiwan. He never retired from military service. Death On December 10, 1967, while on active duty in Germany, Blithe felt nauseated when he returned from a weekend at Bastogne, Belgium, where he had taken part in the ceremonies commemorating the Battle of the Bulge. On December 11, 1967, Blithe was taken to the emergency room at Wiesbaden Hospital, Germany, where he was admitted with a diagnosis of a perforated ulcer. He died in the intensive care unit on December 17 after surgery, and was buried in Arlington National Cemetery with full honors." Quoted paragraphs from a wikipedia on the man.
