Bradley Wheeler – Band of Brothers

Band of Brothers was an excellent choice of a summer reading book. It gave me the utmost respect for our soldiers and what they go through. I love how Stephen Ambrose included actual quotes from the soldiers he wrote about in the book. The movies depicted in great detail the scenes from the book almost down the last period. The book also helped me relate to my grandfather, whom was a prisoner of war in WWII. He told me how real the book and movies were and that opened my eyes into what our past was and what our future can be.

Brad, that is very interesting that your grandfather was a POW in WWII, its good to know that he felt the same way I did about the book. I think I enjoyed the book as much as you did.
