In this video, we explain who actually got to Berchtesgaden first and was first to explore locations like Hitler's Eagle's Nest and the homes of Adolf Hitler and Herrman Goring. We also explain why both the Band of Brothers miniseries and the Stephen Ambrose book on which it is based ...

    It's too bad they had to get a foreigner to play Major Winters. Anyway, some guys have what I call exaggerated startle reflex. I'm not sure if that is used in the medical field or not. A dear co-worker who had been in Vietnam had this problem. When I walked by our office if his back was to the door and I kicked the door he would jump 2 ft in the air. He was deer hunting once in a river bottom. It was kind of hot and kind of foggy and he heard a helicopter some place and he had flashbacks. Generally he is well adjusted and has a wonderful life.

    Gee oh gosh, this didn't age all that well, did it! Now (in the presidential campaign year of 2024) that we know that JD Vance's "Hillbilly Elegy" itself was far, very far from any semblance of "historical fact," maybe the creators of this channel might want to add an additional channel entitled "History-ish vs. Hollywood" or with some such more honest moniker? Vance's self-dealing Horatio Alger style of a "curated" autobiographical-ish best seller was just one paving stone in the massively constructed groundwork to be Cult-45's wannabe torch bearer after the Dear Leader dies in prison (one can always hope against hope?)... And Ron Howard has "tweaked" historical fact many times before this film in order to craft one more formulaic Hollywood box-office hit after another. Remember "A Beautiful Mind" wherein Ronny miraculously made the homosexual (in real, historical, actual life) genius mathematician into the pensive yet heterosexual heartthrob portrayed by Russell Crowe?

    Stephen Ambrose gave us a gift but also had a bad habit of not doing proper research on the stories he was told. From Dick Winters’ perspective, E Company was the first to Berchtesgaden & the Eagle’s Nest. He just didn’t know that the 3rd ID was already there. Also, that photo of Winters and the officers of Easy Company that is often tagged as being at the Eagle’s Nest is not the Eagle’s Nest. Good video!

Not ALL their Leaders were as Good as Capt/Major Winters, there were a LOT OF Duds in the ranks. There were a LOT of "Old Soldiers" who didn't buy in on the ideas(resisted change altogether) of Artillery/Armor/Infantry working together, and resisted the "new fangled ideas" put forth. These men are my heroes, and I feel everyone that followed them, owe them so much!!! THEY LITERALLY SAVED THE WORLD!!! As a former E-6 SF Medic, I remain in TOTAL AWE of these GIANTS!!! They BLAZED THE PATH for the rest of us to follow.
