Added 2017-04-22 13:58:50 +0000 UTCYet again thank you all for your patience with this episode! Apart from scheduling issues, I really wanted to make this a great episode. Especially since so many of you have been wanting me cover Band of Brothers for a while now. I hope that you enjoyed this episode as much as I did researching it. I also say a special thank you to everyone who helped me research it. You have all been terrific and you truly made this episode into what it is!

If I recall correctly, historian Stephen Ambrose got it wrong about Pvt. Albert Blithe in the first edition of his book, and it had to be corrected in subsequent editions. Mr. Ambrose, while a compelling storyteller, was known for more than few goofs like this in his works: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_E._Ambrose" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_E._Ambrose#Criticism</a>

I loved the series mostly due to the fact that when I was in the Army the Pacific Theater of War was one of my subject specialities due to the manner of combat and how it was portrayed in this homage. Drive on Nick!
