"Band of Brothers" is one of my all time favorite tv series. I have seen it five - six times at least and is the only tv series of which I ever bought a copy. It is a shining tribute to a real band of brothers.
Without the men in Easy company and thousands of other simple men who became heroes without wanting to, the world would have been a much grimmer place to live in.
