 Excellent Book October 11, 2008
Having read the "Band Of Brothers" by Ambrose and the books written by Maj. Dick Winters which were all great books and very interesting, Don Malarky also came up with a very good one. He sure lasted a lot longer in combat than the average infantryman. He seemed very conscientious in doing his job. I can relate to a lot of the situations that he was in. I was in "Easy Company" 318th Reg. 80th Division. Our 2nd Battalion was attached to the 4th Armored and made the contact to the 101st Div. at Bastogne. I've read most of the memoirs of the ETO fighting and this one rates among the best.
 another easy company must read October 7, 2008
A good easy read and another great perspective of the efforts of the soldiers of the 101st. Not written as boldly as some other easy company author's work but a good read`all the same. When comparing you do however pick up on how the wars affect was different for the individual soldiers of easy co.
Easy Company Soldier: The Legendary Battles of a Sergeant from World War II's Band of Brothers September 21, 2008
Excellent story and book. Sgt. Malarkey played a major role in the Band of Brothers which I have watched at least 10 times. My Uncle fought in the Battle of the Bulge yet seldom mentioned what he went through...except he had frost bite up past his ankles. He never mentioned his medals: Two Bronze Stars, Good Conduct Medal and the Victory Ribbons. We learned of these from the VA upon his death at the age of 95.
Thank you Sgt. Malarkey for writing this book.
 Typical member of the "Band of Brothers" September 19, 2008
0 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book gives a pretty good look at the a typical member of the Band of Brothers...from his growing up, to some of his thoughts during the way, to how he dealt with the aftermath. I was five years and one month old when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and all of my male cousins were involved in different branches of the service. I guess that is what got me interested in the war and people who took part in it. I just wish we had people as dedicated today...from my cousins to the "Band of Brothers." Our country would be a lot better off.
If you like E Company... September 10, 2008
Great book from Malarkey. He has a open, honest writing style that gives you a very realistic look at the life of an Easy Company Soldier. You will not get fluff here. I have all of the men's books. I like Don's the best! His life back home after the war was very interesting too. If you follow Easy - read this book, you will be surprised by much of his remarks. I sent him my book, and he was kind enough to sign it for me.
