Band of Brothers production background

On December 11, 2002, an American veteran Lester Hashi quietly passed away during the "World War II"-he was the "hero company" of the 506th Regiment of the 101st Air Force-the youngest soldier in the E company. Until the moment of his death, Leicester did not forget the unforgettable experience of being a member of the Allied Forces in the vanguard of the Normandy landing, as well as the precious memories of fighting side by side with E Company’s comrades in blood and tears. In the Netherlands, Lester told the famous American expert on the history of World War II Stephen Ambrose all about E Company, so he wrote a book called "Band of Brothers". In 1998, during the promotion of "Saving Private Ryan", a veteran who had participated in "World War II" personally presented the novel to Tom Hanks. After reading it, Tom Hanks, who was deeply moved, gave the book to Steven Spielberg, and the two decided to make it into a TV series and jointly acted as the producer of the TV series.
Since 1998 when Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg collaborated on "Saving Private Ryan", the two have conceived this TV series based on World War II. After eight months of intensive filming in the UK, five hundred actors with lines and ten thousand extras were used. Eight directors worked together. Among them, Tom Hanks directed the fifth episode and the eighth episode. His son Colin Hanks successfully formed the role of Lieutenant Jones.

    There are many classic passages, and the most impressive is 1. The Germans shelled the US military positions, and a stinker hit the edge of Lipton's trenches. After watching the shock, he smoked the first cigarette in his life. 2. The regiment will send a team to cross the river to capture prisoners. The mission is completed but one person is sacrificed. The commander sent them (the same group of people) to cross the river to perform the task the next day. Winters told everyone to sleep well and not to go. The next day he wrote a report saying that the task was performed but no prisoners were caught.
