>turns his unit into one of the best trained units>still despisedWhy can't he catch a break?
Good teacher doesn't mean a good leader.
>>216533244It's impossible to take this jew seriously because he always has the same expression that he had when he was on Friends. Zero acting range or ability.
>>216533244He's a bad officer and fit only for administering tests.
The unit was effective because of Winters leadership, not Sobels training and discipline.
>HURR DURR RUN UP A MOUNTAIN WITH YOUR GUTS FULL OF SPAGHETTI YOU NEVER KNOW
>>216533261This.In the show (and I think also irl) he got in the exact job he always should have been in; training new recruits and weeding out the pussies in basic.
no kikes in foxholes
>>216533244Because real Winters was a political creature.
>>216533266I hate Schwimmer too but I think he nailed it. I felt palpable disgust every time he was on screen, which is exactly how his men felt.
>>216534088Probably because men in general don't like Friends
mostly because he was played by ross
>>216533266its his nasally voice that prevents him from playing anyone else not his range
>>216533291Yeah that scene where he ran a half mile through a field to shoot an unarmed kraut teenager in the face was awe inspiring, surprised Patton didn’t parachute down right then and there and promote him to full bird colonel.
>its a Blithe returns from the dead episode
>>216534420Very satisfying to watch him eat a bullet
I haven't seen Band of Brothers this year.
>>216534436you still have 3 weeks left, get on with it.
>>216534509Currahee!
>>216534347>unarmedFalse>enemy comes into view so you smile and stand stillWere the Germans retarded?
>>216534509more like 3 miles up 3 miles down
>>216533244>cant even commit suicide>blinds himself and gets put in a home>dies of starvation/neglectKINOit’s a shame the dogshit series didn’t include it
>>216534436Boomer Brained.
The only positive thing about Friends was that there were no niggers in that show.
Weren't he and Blithe badly misrepresented by the screenwriters compared to what Winters actually wrote?
>>216537376The entire series is based on know liar and fraudster Stephen Ambrose’s book. There used to be an early website made by veterans that hated his guts and gave their own honest accounts. Many of the surviving members of Easy company hated being portrayed as special or unique.The series explains the dislike of Sobel because of his personality, in reality most who signed the letter just didn’t like the idea of being commanded by a jew, for obvious reasons.
>>216535641it happened like 35 years later and probably had nothing to do with his war time experience. I doubt he was ashamed of anything. He probably would have laughed out how melodramatic and schmaltzy Band of Brothers was.
>>216537989>The series explains the dislike of Sobel because of his personality, in reality most who signed the letter just didn’t like the idea of being commanded by a jew, for obvious reasons.I got that subtext as well.Sobel treated his troops as expendable goyim; he had no respect for his subordinates and thus they had none for him.
>>216533244that prick's a son of Abraham
>>216537989>There used to be an early website made by veterans that hated his guts and gave their own honest accountsthe show obviously took some artistic liberties for narrative pace and storytelling. did ambrose get some details wrong? sure.but what you fail to realize is literally all of these WW2 veteran accounts are just hearsay from geezers 40 years after the fact. memories and details get fuzzy, especially with age. some people swear they saw or did something a certain way, and some say it happened completely different. the day-to-day life of grunts sitting in foxholes during WW2 wasnt very well documented.the show got the gist of it right and its entertaining, thats all that really matters in the end. its not supposed to be a court trial or a documentary, it's made for television. one geezers account of what happened in normandy isnt any more true than some other geezers account who said something different.
>>216538141Cope. Bizarre overuse of the word “geezer”.
>>216533244jew
>>216534589>Were the Germans retarded?Most german soldiers towards the end of the war and especially on the western front were just young boy and old man grabbed from the street with whatever gear they could give them.But it's not exactly a good look for the greatest generation and the propaganda, better put 6+ feet blond aryan prototype with square jaw and side cut in all Hollyjew'd movies, works best...
>>216533244is that fuckin ross from friends????
>>216534088he IS ross from friends!I fuckin hate that guy!!!!!!!!!!!
>>216538347argue the point, nigger. old people are notoriously unreliable with eyewitness accounts from things that happened 50 years ago.
>Sobel was intensely disliked by the men under his command,[11] who saw him as a petty, arbitrary, domineering tyrant who handed down cruel punishments for the most minuscule of infractions, real or imagined. "Until I landed in France in the very early hours of D-Day," recalled Corporal Walter Gordon, "my war was with [Sobel]."[12] Lieutenant Richard Winters, Sobel's executive officer, took exception to Sobel's "desire to lead by fear rather than example."[13] The officers in Easy Company nicknamed Sobel "the Black Swan,"[14] and the enlisted men frequently referred to him as a "fucking Jew" when he was out of earshot.[12]>Despite his harsh tactics, Sobel proved effective in training an excellent company of highly disciplined paratroopers. However, by the time Easy Company had transferred to Camp Mackall, North Carolina, in February 1943, Sobel's shortcomings as a field commander became apparent. During exercises, his lack of spatial awareness, physicality, and smart decision making made his men concerned about his ability to lead them in battle.[15]>skipped a lot here>After his service in World War II, Sobel returned to Chicago, where he worked as a credit manager for a telephone equipment company.[25] He married Rose, a former military nurse from South Dakota whose Catholicism was disapproved of by Sobel's Jewish family.[27] They raised three sons, who attended church weekly with Rose before their parents' divorce.[27][28]>In 1970, Sobel shot himself in the head with a small-caliber pistol in an attempted suicide.[29] The bullet entered his left temple, severing his optic nerves and rendering him blind.[29] Soon afterward, he began living at a Veterans Administration assisted-living facility in Waukegan, Illinois, where he died on September 30, 1987;[2] the death certificate listed malnutrition as the cause of death.
>>216538859No, you didn’t raise anything valid. Stephen Ambrose is a proven liar and fraudster. The claim of his book, that easy company was unique, is a lie. None of your cope addresses that.
>>216533244SOBELWe salute the crown, not the man.
>>216538611Oh hey it’s the Eastern European with his broken English again. Estonia is where you live, isn’t it?
>>216538957>the enlisted men frequently referred to him as a "fucking Jew" when he was out of earshot.[Bros.... Why would America's antifa super soldiers say something like this?
>>216533244cause he's jewish.also the other guy they call a jew in the show wasn't jewish irl and the guys who got mad in the holocaust episode didn't actually give a shit irl and also the holocaust episode was entirely made up. Easy was like the 3rd or 4th unit to show up to that camp and showed up like a day after the tanks did and that camp had been abandoned for weeks and also there were literally no gas chambers or extermination camps in germany. 100% of all the extermination camps were liberated and "investigated" by the russians and only the russians and we all know russians would never lie about nazis
PIVOT
>>216539055Major Winters got promoted?
>>216534433The real Blithe spent 20 years in the Army. Fought in Korea and Vietnam.
