Production Notes: This was our second film. From
concept to completion the production lasted three months. Most of the time was dedicated to outlining every camera angle, and designing and acquiring costumes and props. Probably should’ve paid more attention to acting. We made this for our 11th grade English class and the story is very, very loosely based on a couple pages from the book “Band of Brothers.”

    This is based off a couple pages from a chapter in the Band of Brothers book. FYI, the episode called “The Last Patrol” in the mini-series had a different title when it was originally aired. We didn’t “steal” it.

    Not bad, if you ignore the guns and uniforms. Are you guys reenactors now?

    I’ve heard of Asians in the Marines during that time, most notably Japanese, but not in the Army, or for that matter as Airborne Infantry.

    The marines did not fly P47s in the pacific theater.. only the US Army air corp flew them. It was mostly used to escort B17 and B24 on bombing missions over Germany, They were used in the pacific theater , but by only a few squadrons. Good short movie by some up and coming actors and directors. the kid playing sarge is outstanding,,we will hear about this young man again in the future

    the only thing that is wrong with the Sergeant is his way of talking. if he talks like that really I’ve never heard that.

    pretty good for an amateur video, just one thing that pisses me off, and its not your fault cause hollywood probaly told you how its done, but you NEVER never reply to a Sergeant or any NCO as “Sir” I know thats how it goes for the army and im pretty sure thats how it works in the rest of the branches as well. You reply with the either “Sarge” or pefreably “Sergeant”

    really nice make-up and the actors are talented, i also like the scenes between the characters, they give a human spirit to the movie and it’s an important thing in a war movie, on the other hand, uniforms are not really fantastics…

    if u played cod they call sergeant “sarge’ too so hollywood not that good at facts except for the true story movies
