A Must See April 21, 2008
A gritty and honest depiction of life as a soldier in World War II. I first saw this series on the History channel and no matter how many times I have seen it, I never grow tired of watching it. I finally decided to purchase the set so I can watch the original uncensored version along with all of the extras (the interviews with surviving members and Ron Livingston's video diary are great). I am loaning it out to all of my friends and co-workers so they can see this excellent series and have a renewed appreciation for what has been called "the greatest generation". My only quibble is not with the series, but with the packaging - getting the DVDs released from their holders is a bit of a challenge. Other than that, I highly recommend this item to everyone.
Stunning April 18, 2008
This series should be required watching for WWII history classes. It may not give all the geo-political background or ramifications, but it's a great example of what life was really like on the front. Nothing romantic about it, yet heroic and glorious.

Perfect for WW2 buffs April 14, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this DVD set for my husband, who is a huge WW2 buff. He loves it, in fact he has watched at least one episode a night for the past week. I 've even gotten in to them! One of the things that makes Band of Brothers so good is the accounts from the men who actually served in Easy Company. I'm thrilled with my purchase!
A Tribute to those who gave so much... April 14, 2008
This video is a stunning tribute to the men who gave so much to thier country by way of service during WWII. The visual effects are graphically real, the best cinema representation of men in combat I have ever seen. The interspersed vignettes by the actual survivors of Easy Company 506th Paratroop Infantry Division bring to life what you view as real as it can be re-created on a set. We owe thier generation our thanks, and so much more.
