Fan? Bought the DVD series, bought it again in Blue Ray, bought it for a few friends, bought the book, bought Beyond Band of Brothers (the Dick Winters Autobiography), bought "We Who Are Alive and Remain."
And most of this before my Grandpa told me he was actually with the 101st Airborne and fought in the woods outside Bastogne (as a replacement). That was a shocker.
I think it should be mandatory for every single American to watch the series and meditate on what these men (and thousands like them) did for our country.
