I binge watched Band of Brothers a few days ago and now I am watching Captain Winters be a stock broker on Billions. Same guy, different suit. === Great series. My dad was in the same unit as Winters. http://www.band-of-brothers.nl/artikel/vet_vet_Jack_Foley.htm Scroll down to the bottom picture. |

And a Captain no less. There are a lot of captains in 'Easy Company', any idea why that is? |

He was a surgeon at the field hospital in Bastogne featured in episode 6. |

The Major (Winters) was the star of the TV show and actually the XO of the 506th but he was CO of Easy for most of the European campaign. I agree that picture seems to be heavy on officers and I don't see a lot of the names used in the TV show that is fairly accurate from what I understand. Maybe most of the enlisted guys were working when they took the picture. A company is typically around 100 guys isn't it? |

I assume they lost a bunch, but that still seems mighty small to be called a company. |

I have a friend who has had a decent, long career as an actor in TV series and in some Hollywood productions. It's damned unusual. Sure you do. |
