The 101st Airborne Division, "Howling Eagle/Whooping Eagle", is the trump card of the United States. It is also a "troop with a glorious and excellent revolutionary tradition." During World War II, there was still a apartheid system, so there were no blacks in the team. The most legendary experience of this unit is the few days guarding Bastogne, Belgium, and winning a battle with almost no winning rate. At the same time, the paratrooper itself is also a subject of great visual impact: hundreds of planes set sail, the vast night sky overlooks the sea, and the heavenly soldiers under the clear sky of the Netherlands—only this unit has a blessing.
The backbone of the E company are non-commissioned officers, non-commissioned officers who have been promoted from private soldiers, and the beloved company commander Winters. Naturally, the former company commander, Captain Sobel, can be said to have contributed the most, although he was annoying. The original work of "Band of Brothers" is an interview-based multi-person memoir. The prose-style narration lays out a grand scene from the details, and the characters are shaped from multiple angles of mutual description. The whole structure is undoubtedly the structure of "Water Margin". The adaptation is quite laborious, because a little carelessness will loosen the entire structure. However, the director of "Band of Brothers" is undoubtedly very successful. Except for episodes 1 and 9, each has a central character in the narration, which ensures the continuity and relative concentration of the story. It is the structure of "Water Margin" again. I don't know if it is intentional or coincident, but it does provide a successful method for the story of many major characters.
