5/8 There's a part in Band of Brothers part 2 I don't understand. This
guy parachutted, landed, and saw another guy and asked him where
he's from-- Eugene, Oregon, only 10 miles from where the other guy
lives, and the 2 guys started fraternizing. Then his leader told
them to not fraternize with the enemy. Moments later we hear the
machine gun and I'm guessing that the guy from Eugene OR got killed.
So who is he suppose to be, a Nazi spy?
\_ Nah, an American with relatives in Germany who decided to fight
for Gemany rather than the US. There's really nothing very
complicated about it.
\_ Right after he said he was from Eugene, OR, he was asked why he
was doing fighting for the Germans, and he explained. How'd you
miss that?
\_ yeah I don't know maybe cuz my gf was talking talking
talking and not appreciating the film. anyways why would
an American fight for Germany, is this common in WW2?
\_ he was an American-born German. It's not so
unbelievable.
\_ And you didn't slap her face?
\_ I don't think it was her face he was slapping when
the film was done....
\_ unless it was with his ... yeah, nm
\_ Well, I mean, if he was using his hand, what
else could he have been slap--...err, yeah, nm
\_ If you read a bit of history and realized when Germany started
attacking people vs. when the USA entered WWII it might dawn
on you that perhaps he joined dur fathalande before Amerikkka
entered the fight. |
