"Three miles up, three miles down."

"The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead. And the sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll function as a soldier's supposed to function. Without mercy, without compassion, without remorse."

"We're paratroopers, lieutenant. We're supposed to be surrounded."

"How could anyone ever know of the price paid by soldiers in terror, agony, and bloodshed if they'd never been to places like Normandy, Bastogne or Haguenau?"

"Men, it's been a long war, it's been a tough war. You have fought bravely, proudly for your country. You are a special group who found in one another a bond that exists only in combat. Among brothers of shared foxholes. Held each other in dire moments. Who've seen death and suffered together. I am proud to have served with each and every one of you. You deserved long and happy lives of peace."

"There is not a day that goes by that I do not think of the men I served with who never got to enjoy the world without war."

"Henry the Fifth was talking to his men, he said, From this day to the ending of the world, we in it shall be remembered. We lucky few, we band of brothers. For he who today sheds his blood with me shall be my brother."

"Do you remember the letter my granny wrote me? You do? Do you remember how I ended it? 'I cherish the memories of a question my grandson asked me the other day when he said: Grandpa, were you a hero in the war ? Granpa said: No, But I served in the company of heroes.' "

    I watched the brother company during the summer vacation in high school. I only remembered that one group of soldiers killed another group of soldiers. I didn’t remember who was who, the name was right, and who had sacrificed. When I watched the brother company in college, I still looked like this. My face blindness is really drugless. Saveable
