Band of Brothers

There was a time when the world asked ordinary men to do extraordinary things.

On HBO

A meticulously crafted historical miniseries that follows a single company of soldiers from training through the European theater, balancing the bonds forged in combat with the trauma and loss of war.

Drawn from interviews with survivors of Easy Company, as well as their journals and letters, Band of Brothers chronicles the experiences of these men from paratrooper training in Georgia through the end of the war. As an elite rifle company parachuting into Normandy early on D-Day morning, participants in the Battle of the Bulge, and witness to the horrors of war, the men of Easy knew extraordinary bravery and extraordinary fear - and became the stuff of legend. Based on Stephen E. Ambrose's acclaimed book of the same name.
