By all expert accounts and analysts, the depicted Brécourt Manor Assault was brilliant.

I loved Band of Brothers, and I think it is the more rewatachable series. But there is something so viscerally realistic about Generation Kill that will never leave me.

I also love the conversation comparing the two. Probably the most win-win debate there is.
Right the bold part is my point.

Is it the depiction of the day to day bull####.

Chaplin......come the #### on. We had 2 with us and we would be trotted out when ever he came on our location.

Like #### off dude, take you fairy tales elsewhere, I was hoping to sleep after being up for 24 hrs.

Edit, also the simple happiness from Chef Boyardee. I remember one dude in my company for a a case of KD shipped to him and he gave it to the the company cook to make dinner. I was just about to tuck into my KD and we got a Starlight call.

I never got my ####ing KD. A dinner of stale bread and peanut butter.
