Yeah, I know I'm the last person on the planet to have seen this series...
A friend from church offered to loan me "Band of Brothers," because I had a bunch of free time on my recent staycation (a vacation where you just stay home and R-E-L-A-X).
I watched all 10 episodes back to back (felt like being in college). What an AMAZING series. I've often thought the generation that fought WWII was the apex of our society- now I'm certain. If anyone here fought in that war, know that you have my undying respect. For the rest of us, this series helps drive home the pointlessness of war- and the bravery, courage, and inspiration that can arise from it.
If you haven't seen Band of Brothers, beg to borrow the DVDs from a friend and watch. At the end of each episode, I would look out the window of our media room just to look at the flag hanging from our neighbor's porch (yeah, may be sentimentalism, but I dare you to watch this series and not be tempted to salute the next flag you see :^).
