Band of Brothers quotes

Men, it's been a long war, it's been a tough war. You've fought bravely, proudly for your country. You're a special group. You've found in one another a bond, that exists only in combat, among brothers. You've shared foxholes, held each other in dire moments. You've seen death and suffered together. I'm proud to have served with each and every one of you. You all deserve long and happy lives in peace. - Liebgott (Translating a speech a German General is giving to his men after they all surrendered)

That's edelweiss. It grows in the mountains, above the treeline. Which means he climbed up there to get it. Supposed to be the mark of a true soldier. - Cpt. Lewis Nixon

Only virgin I know is the Virgin Mary - Pvt. Ralph Spina

We're not lost, Private. We're in Normandy. - Richard Winters

If there ain't no body, then there ain't nobody dead. - Bill Guarnere
