This is the story of “E” Easy Company, 506th Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division from their initial training starting in 1942 to the end of World War II. They parachuted behind enemy lines in the early hours of D-Day in support of the landings at Utah beach, participated in the liberation of Carentan and again parachuted into action during Operation Market Garden. They also liberated a concentration camp and were the first to enter Hitler’s mountain retreat in Berchtesgarten. A fascinating tale of comradeship that is, in the end, a tale of ordinary men who did extraordinary things. Worth everyone of it’s 705 minutes.

It is not often that I make a movie review one of our featured posts, but after my experience watching this movie, I realized that this was a movie that needs to be seen. It is a miraculous story with so many lessons about life and morality that I just don’t know where to begin. This is definitely a movie I may see again, and it’s certainly a movie I will encourage others to watch. Leaving the movie was like leaving a moving religious service.
