Where can I find the full interview?
@@RoccoSmith-oi2ii look up “History Channel Brothers in Arms Documentary” you’ll find it.
Can I say something bloody obvious? Regardless of friend or foe, death up front n center is a very personal moment.
In the bar, he was using a different part of his brain then on the battlefield. The different parts crossed when he saw the soldier. That's why he never forgot
I was there. Be 102 next month. My goodness how time flies. One second im about to hit the beach and computers dont even exist and it seems like i woke up up the next day and im talking to you fine people on this rectangle contraption. Enjoy every day people.
Who had a better charge, Cole or Winters?
@@LTGRAVES Now THAT is a tough question. Winters’ was iconic, especially because of the miniseries, but he didn’t get a Medal of Honor for it. He would have got one for the action at Brécourt Manor, if there wasn’t a limit to one per division, and Cole got it first. What I think would plead the case that Winters’ was the better charge, is the fact that he stood exposed and started to solo an entire company. Going through multiple clips. Both men lead their charges and put themselves in the line of fire. And got their shots off at the enemy. Hard to say which one takes the cake, but I believe Winters’ had the most direct contact in his.
3 year old me in Indianapolis Indiana didn’t understand… but for whatever reason I never ever forgot. After the last 20 years I’ve began to regain some more of that memory to the point to where I can tell you my entire day… 23 years later beginning to end. I personally wanted to compile a video like this and cannot express how grateful I am that this is here. I’ve always wanted to know who the civilian trapped in the cab of the fire truck was, if they got out. I’ve tried searching for other FDNY Radio transmissions aside from this one and have found very very few. This video gave me communications I’d never heard like with engine 6 and a few others. I hope you have a successful and safe career in the fire department and may God bless you too.
Isn’t it strange that the people who died never had a 9/11. That sounds stupid, but it gets to me.
"CHAARRRRGGGE!!!!"
00:10:54 - 00:11:02 This Reuse Footage Scene is TRANSFORMERS (2007)
Amazing work! Thank you for sharing. Heart wrenching and so important ❤❤
That was well put together and featured a lot I hadn't heard before, thank you.
Purple Heart Lane refers to a critical road in Normandy, France, officially known as Carentan Causeway, which played a significant role during World War II. It gained its nickname due to the intense and bloody fighting that took place there between American and German forces in June 1944, particularly involving the 101st Airborne Division. The battle was crucial for securing the town of Carentan, which was essential for linking the Utah and Omaha Beachheads. The name "Purple Heart Lane" reflects the heavy casualties suffered by the American troops in this strategic yet perilous area.
Typical nuns
Finally someone who acknowledges roat to hill 30s existence
@@royalsempire1757 I do more than acknowledge. I aim to immortalize it on this channel 💪🏼
@@WillieCuz it's a shame we didn't get a remaster. Such a great game
Unfinished masterpiece
Didn’t know that about Steve Buschemi - so awesome that he helped out.
I couldn't find much info on some of the other veterans interviewed for the game, but I did find an article from May this year about Harry Corre still living at 101 years old.
Yes I also found the VA has a full length interview recorded on their archive.
Sobel was one hell of a leader, he pushed his men to be the best possible version of themselves ready to face the obstacles to come
The way his life ended is very upsetting
Sorry he ruined the show, just can’t watch anymore of it.
I don’t think easy would have been a success with out Sobel
Something the series doesn’t show is how grateful they truly were. Sobel was not cut out to be a combat leader, however the veterans say, without him pushing them like he did they wouldn’t have been such a successful unit.
Apologies good sir, I am unable to fully grasp the seriousness of this moving picture scene due the character “Ross” pulling me from the immersion
W comment section already 🤣
Sorry, I just can’t take Ross seriously.
Sorry, I just can't take Ross seriously.
Sorry man... I really just cannot take Ross seriously
Sorry, I just can't take Ross seriously.
What is happening 💀
@@WillieCuzHe played a character called Ross on a show called Friends for a long time. I guess some people can’t separate him from that and think it’s amusing to repeat others? I thought he did well in this role. 🤷♀️
This was a great show for historians and people that were slightly into history of WW2 highly recommend watching this show.
Sorry, I just can't take Ross seriously.
Sorry, I just can't take Ross seriously.
Textbook. Amazing. Cheers.
If anyone hasn’t seen it already, see that Documentary by the french brothers. Itll blow your mind.
I was 18 working as a lumber toater for a framing crew..... in sharpsburg GA
I want to like this game. And I tried many times, but it just doesn't do it.
Yeah, the game is pretty dated now so it might not be for you. The core basics of the game requires you to suppress the enemy and flank them. I've played it back in its heyday. It's a good game for its time, but still a bit janky. I do like the fact that you can control squads and have them do whatever you want.
@@kevinwillett3654 well I’m playing it for you here so you don’t have to get into it ❤️
Man in my play through about a year ago my tank was a lemon and wouldn’t kill anything.
I’m a perfectionist, and try to make these videos as cinematic as possible, hence all the editing. I can tell you this one is compiled from many takes. Replayed the whole mission at least 20 times trying to get the tank to perform when I wanted it to. 🤣 Sandbags on this map were immortal!
@@WillieCuz ya I did a marathon run after a steam sale and played through all of them. Some of these missions especially on Earned in Blood where frustrating.
Earned in Blood final mission is ridiculous 💀
@@WillieCuz they need to make a sequel or at least reboot.
@@LTGRAVESim not sure but isnt hells highway sequel? sorry english is not my first language
RIP Allen and Garnett
That emotion in Baker's monologue is CRAZY! Troy Baker really delivered for this role.
Paddy Brown 🇮🇪
5:33 in PS2 version, 30cal replaced by MG42
@@nizalmuhammad9689 which is funny because the dialogue remains the same. So they still call it a 30 Cal even though it’s an MG-42.
I like the scene at the start because Leggett is having a real conversation with the guys and not just being constantly shit on.
Let there never need to be a generation as great.
Isnt that a scene from band of brothers? Just watched episode 2 and it looks really familiar
@@AidanHDok Nah it’s just a reenactment they did for the Brothers in Arms documentary. Probably thinking of the scene with the paratrooper all tangled up before the naval bombardment starts
Never forget, they are the greatest generation.
@@65cbtengr and soon they will be gone, it is up to us to keep their memory alive. And with it, perhaps another great generation may rise.
Horrible 😔
Isnt that a warcrime then?
Not if you win
Not the first time. The Geneva convention was after WW2. Likely for reasons like this, lol.
@@Publius_1787I mean technically, they didn’t surrender, they were just ambushed at the breakfast table. In the US Army records it says they were mowed down when they started to “arise” so they could have been going for their rifles. It also states they took no prisoners because “no opportunity presented itself.” But regardless there was an order for paratroopers to not take prisoners anyway because given the nature of their mission they wouldn’t be able to accommodate them. Some were taken anyway, but not many. Same as paratroopers who got stuck in trees, some Germans inflicted cruelties on them.
To think this story is real, no wonder its in a game 😂
Do you not believe it?
@WillieCuz huh, yea, i believe it, i just was saying it's so crazy that it makes perfect material for a video game, sorry fornthe confusion
All good I just wanted to check my interpretation. I couldn’t tell how you meant it at first
House cleanin
@@user-um5xi7wc4b 💀
Hey fire video man! I love this game. Can you play this on a windows 10 computer with 8 gb of ram?
@@MychalBackhaus I believe you can. Graphics can be tuned down to accommodate but it’s an old game. So I see no prob running it on a weaker computer
@@WillieCuz I appreciate it man! Gotta get you more subs!
Yeah that would be nice haha
I'm losing hope for a new brothers in arms game...
The rate games are going, I don’t even think I want another one made.
The American 101st Airborne Division, particularly the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, was involved in the intense combat against German forces, including elements of the 6th Parachute Regiment. The village saw fierce fighting as the paratroopers sought to secure the area and cut off German reinforcements heading to the beaches. The battle was marked by house-to-house combat, heavy artillery bombardment, and significant casualties on both sides. The eventual capture of Saint-Côme-du-Mont by the Allies helped pave the way for the liberation of Carentan, further consolidating the Allied foothold in Normandy.
Can’t get this on steam can you ?
Nevermind just found it
@@boe1337 if not, it’s on Ubisoft too
Thankyou for making this, it puts a human face to a news story you can briefly overlook. I have never cried so hard for these selfless workers. What got me the most was the memorial epitaph that said, ‘They have lifted the beams away, they tenderly lift me forth' 😭😭Even though it has been 20 years my heart goes out to the loved ones left behind. This sort of tragedy is very hard to fathom. 😭🙏God Bless them and their sacrifice to save others.
