rewatching saving private ryan while in the height of a band of brothers fixation is exhausting. i have been squealing at every reference to the 101st and carentan and mutual military references surrounding d-day (which is, like, the entire plot) and just can't stop my brain from trying to work out where my easy boys are and what they're doing simultaneous to it all

Learned something new about Janovec today. It's actually really shocking and sad, ngl. For those who don't recognize the name; John Janovec was played by Tom Hardy in the BoB series.
(And if you still don't know him, this guy below)

Annnddd for all you lovely people who can't read that very clearly (I dont blame you it's a shitty picture,) I wrote it out;
"One night Sgt. Robert Marsh was driving Pvt. John Janovec back from a roadblock by a side road. Janovec was leaning on the unreliable door of a German truck. They hit a log. He lost his balance, fell, and hit his head on the pavement. Marsh rushed him to the regimental aid station in Zell am See, but he died on the way of a fractured skull."

A day that we knew would come but didn’t want to think about; the end of a Company, the end of an era…
Brad Freeman, the last member of Easy Company, passed away peacefully with his family at his side.
He was a simple, quiet, humble man with a boisterous laugh when something tickled him. He was a great ambassador for Easy Company and the men of WWII. And he will be missed. I wish I could see the complete reunion in Heaven.

i feel like writing WWII show fanfiction is actually my bootcamp for other fandoms. Every time I go write in another fandom, the lack of research I do in comparison is such a relief. When I fall back into my historical fiction narrative, I'm actually reading nonfiction history books and combing through badly managed websites that are probably digitized war records. just the other day i tried to find one specific plane crash in the month of 1942 on an airfield that went defunct due to that one incident. I found it. i tasted victory. The things i do for fandom.

उनके शरीर के स्थान पर सुगंधित फूल पाए गए जो कबीर परमेश्वर की आज्ञा के अनुसार दोनों धर्मों ने आपस में लेकर मगहर में 100 फुट के अंतर से एक-एक यादगार बनाई जो आज भी विद्यमान है।
यह दोनों धर्मों हिंदुओं और मुसलमानों में आपसी भाईचारे व सद्भावना की एक मिसाल का प्रमाण है।
गरीब, बिरसिंघ बघेला करै बीनती, बिजली खाँन पठाना हो।*🌺बन्दीछोड़ सतगुरु रामपाल जी महाराज जी की जय🌺*

Okay here’s a little thing from me starting the BoB story I’m working on let me know how it sounds!
"you are my sunshine
my only sunshine
you make me happy
when the skies are gray
you'll never know, dear
how much I love you
please don't take my sunshine away"
"Your voice is so pretty, Joan." was mumbled out of his mouth sleepily.
Claude saw her smile down at him from where he was with his head on her lap. "Well thank you, bubba, and you are my favorite little brother." She ran her fingers through his hair as she talked to him, something she and their dad did to help him stay grounded.
Then a man's voice broke us out of their daze, "Y'all foods hot, come and get it!".
He snapped his gaze to Joan and their mouths turned upwards in crazed smiles. They had scrambled up from where they sat. Racing down the hall to go greet the man to which the voice belonged. Their socked feet slid to a stop in front of the tall figure in the kitchen doorway.
The words 'Howdy babes!' escaped his father's mouth with a wide smile on his face. His smile was the same that crossed Claudes' face when he launched himself into David's arms. His arms are the safest and warmest place he has ever been in. David placed a kiss on his son's forehead before ruffling his hair and pushing him away. "What were you two rascals up to in there?" he said after he had pulled Joan into a hug as well.
Joan giggled, "Nothing dad, just waiting for you and dinner!"
"That's a lie dad, it wasn't nothin'." I playfully glared at her with a smile on his lips. "She was singing to me again."
Looking down and shaking her head, she said "I was just singin' 'you are my sunshine, you know that's what I always sing to him."
"I know, I know it's Clau's song -
"David! Are they ready for dinner yet!"
-Okay enough of the yackin', it's time to eat!" David says after playfully rolling his eyes at moms yelling.
Going through the doorway and to the dining room where his mom had set the table. She had also turned on the radio so we can have some Glenn Miller playing.
My mother's voice broke through the music, "Hurry up and sit up, kids!"
"Okay! Okay! We're hurrin' up and sittin' up mama." Claude started to settle down and grabbed his napkin to put it on his lap. After that, Claude reached out and held his mama and daddy's hands while bowing his head. Their voices joined together to say a prayer over the food.
"God is great, God is good.
Let us thank him for our food.
By his hands, we are fed.
Let us thank him for our bread.
Amen."

To get the body of God Kabir ji, both the Hindus and the Muslims came to Maghar preparing for a fight, but when fragrant flowers were found in place of the body, both of them started crying hugging each other.

Taking Charge (The Tide Has Turned)
(Painting by: K. Sean Sullivan)
On January 13, 1945… Nearly a month after the Battle of the Bulge began, American forces are back on the offensive. At the small Belgian village of Foy, Lt. Ron Speirs leads Easy Company, 506th P.I.R., 101st Airborne against an entrenched enemy. Earlier, a shaky officer had stopped the attack prematurely, causing Capt. Richard Winters to send in Speirs to take charge. Having rallied the men, Speirs now leads the final Easy Company assault. In the days to follow, the Allied breakout would prove unstoppable, and the Battle of the Bulge would end in victory.
