Today we talk about the sixth episode of Band of Brothers (Bastogne). Talk about a slugfest in the cold, hard to imagine the misery these warriors went through. This episode is unique in that it focuses on a medic Eugene Roe, something that really brings to the front the suffering all around the small town. - Dike: where's my foxhole? - Doc yells at a guy for his arm wound, don't yell if it's not that bad - "This is a combat patrol Doc, why don't you stay back" - Seems like Roe never sleeps, always someone needing help in Bastogne - Wounded seems positive (didn't die), but they'll live with that rest of their life Sayre was a Ranger-qualified Infantry Officer and served as a platoon leader for the entirety of a twelve month deployment to Zhari District, Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne Division’s 2nd Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment during the troop surge of 2010-2011.
