He also became American Governor for Spandau Prison in Berlin where Rudolph Hess was kept prisoner .... Spandau was torn down upon Hess' death in 1987 so that it could not become a NEO-NAZI Shrine ...
? i guess the last scene was a bit unrealistic. Or like in every american war movie, the germans are just the stupid nameless soldiers who fill the screen time with dying scenes.
erm i hope he got in prison for his war crimes after shooting unarmed prisoners?!
what part is it when the american shoot those prisoners? i have not seen that even i watched band of brothers like 3 times now. is it censored in the DVD?
I don't know why band of brothers didn't center around him cuz not only was he a crazy mother fucker but he went on a crazy shitfuck of a lonewolf mission where he swam across a river, scouted a buttfuck of enemy positions, stole an inflatable raft, then got the hell out while being shot at by an MG 42
Dude when I read about him on wiki it said from Maine.They just changed it so piss off dick .All you had to do is tell me not act like a bitch.I could care less about where he is from.He was a badass thats all I care about so fuck off.
@BrotherJ97 No, he was actually born in Glasgow, Scotland, and then his family emigrated from there to Boston, Massachusetts, and then to Portland, Maine. But yeah, nonetheless, what a badass. Speirs was amazing.
Yeah brother I know that now. When I first read about him on wiki it said from maine which is why I left the first comment. Then that ass jack got snippy with me and I got pissed off lol. He is by far my favorite form band of brothers.
Eh, don't worry about the ass, LOL. But yeah, Speirs is one of my favorites, too. My favorites are 1. Winters, 2. Speirs, 3. Compton, 4. Lipton, 5. Blithe.
@btp248 have you ever read any of lt winter books. he said he doesnt realy belive he did it but he wouldnt put it past him,the thing about shooting his sgt cause he was drunk is true.
@btp248 Actually, my friend if you would read abit more about Speirs and E-Company/D-Company, in Dick Winters memoirs he even states that Speirs killed those PoW's. The only reason the allegations were never brought up was simply b/c officers like Speirs were hard to come by in WWII, and they needed all the men they could get.
@xXSgtWolfXx I do remember that scene but I also remember the scene in Carentan in which Malarkey informs Muck, Penkala, More, and Blithe that he "didn't actually see it" and that they only thing he saw Speirs do was take out that one gun by himself on D-Day.
@btp248 Actually, the rumors that were told about throughout the series were true! Speirs did kill one of his own men for refusing to go on patrol cuz he was drunk. He also shot those German POWs that were under guard in Normandy. How do I know this? Well, In Dick Winters book, The Biggest Brother, he goes on to address the rumor issues that circulated through the units about Speirs and Dick confirms each rumor. I highly recomend that book if ur a B.O.B. fan!
@PA1NK1LLER I will have to finish that book one of these days! I worked in a bookstore and always read bits and pieces of it. I knew that he shot someone on patrol, I recall reading it somewhere but I feel as if the POW rumor was (at least by Speirs himself) unconfirmed. Not that Maj. Winters has passed (RIP) I really should get around to finishing his book.
STFU Lt. Speirs is a fucking badass mother fucking psycho but if it wasnt for him a lot of good people would have died. Even Richard D. Winters said that.
@FernandoHEspinoza He says "Compton" meaning he wants Compton on line next to him, which in the next shot you can see Compton and Winters next to each other talking about Speirs being out of the trench.
speirs is not stupid nor fucked as some of u commenting wanks keep saying because his still alive an i like to see u in position uh i reakon its great mate good effort ....
In Richard Winters memoirs he said that Speers was a natural born killer and the rumor of him killing one of his nco's who disobeyed him in combat is apparently true and he told his superior who was apparently KIA the next day thats why he was never prosecuted under the UCMJ and also that 506 was short of good experienced combat leaders. I have to say though he did what he had to do, and from the sounds of it was a damn fine Combat leader

dude this is like me when i play paintball all i do is run past all the other players and get the flag and win the game i dont give a shit who is shooting at me and how close they are at hiting me but i just keep ruing and never get hit
your a idoit man this video was awsome. maybe you should relize that when people make videos like this there saying that that game or movie or show was cool and showing it by making a video. maybe you should make some like this dont you think.
How am I an idiot? I don't like the music he put over it. The movie was awesome. But this video sucked balls.And people don't upload to youtube to share how they fell about something, they do it to entertain people and be critiqued. I would make something like this but i don't have access to the clips.
So yea maybe next time you should think before you go and say stupid shit.
If you are going to criticize people, then why don't you do it maturely. I'm sure some music you like people think isn't that great. What you said was unnecessary and ignorant. Maybe you should think before you go making a fool of yourself.
And I handled it quite maturely, maybe with a few unnecessary words in put. I do agree with you that everyone has a different taste in music, but really the music that he used was unfitting and distastful to the subject. Not really an appropreiate song for the video in other words. So next time you will think before you post.
I did think; you need to stop repeating yourself. How many times are you going to say that? This isn't an Appropriate song? The song doesn't have to be appropriate for the video. And that is your opinion it is not appropriate. I think you are being an ignorant moron. It is not like he is trying to say anything bad about band of brothers, or rude about it. You need to realize that. It is quite annoying you are acting so blind.
I know what I am talking about. I am saying that the song fits to the video poorly (not the timing but the overall theme that the video is implying). The whole idea of trying to make death and the horrors of War look "cool". Now if this video had been edited played with a different song it could have been alot better.
You are oblivious to what I am saying and to everything around you. You are a one minded fool who will never understand. He wasn't implying that, and the video isn't either. That is just you being paranoid and too stupid to realize that. If you think it is so disrespectful, then don't come back to this page again.
Like 82ndarmy said, maybe he was trying to imply that (to show how cool the show is). You don't need to be so 1 sided about this. The song fit the clips perfectly. Just open your mind a little bit. I understand what you are trying to say, but you are wrong about that.
Spiers created the fraze BAD ASS! so cool, I live near the real major winters! It would be sweet if I could get him autograph my copy of beyond band of brothers.
Yo, I want to go meet him so bad, but hes scary! hes killed so many men! dude, my former boy scout head master, he was a green beret in vietnam! he was deaf in one ear because a grenade went off next to himm! should I go meet the major?
of course.....i would do that....i think u r a big fan !!! and when i can visit him i will do that....thats so great that u both r "neighbours" .... =) u r so lucky ;)
of course.....i would do that....i think u r a big fan !!! and when i can visit him i will do that....thats so great that u both r "neighbours" .... =) u r so lucky ;)
to be honest i think that speirs never did kill those prisoners but then agian no 1 nos if he did or not afer all my grandad served with him in bastogne but was never mentiond in band of brothers
Well at one point in episode 7, near the end, he talks to first sergeant Lipton. He talks about these guys way back cutting off prisoners heads, and how they could be stories. And Lipton said maybe people believe it because he never denies it. Then Speirs says, maybe he doesn't deny it because he wants them to BELIEVE that he is one strong something something bad ass. Therefore i think MOST of the stories were false.
For one thing... He had actually never admitted to doing the shooting... and it was never proven, as the witnesses never actually "Witnessed" it. Spiers was a War Hero... Which is more than a lot of you can say.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Let's see, shooting unarmed prisoners in the legs to maximise their pain while bleeding to death after just having given them cigs pretending that he was okay ....makes him a "cool" and "good man" you really have a warped sense of what makes a person cool or good. Glad I don't live near you.
What does that have to do with having a warped sense of what is "cool" or "good"? I mean come on, he's just calmly standing there shooting them down, in the legs no less, and that's "cool" and "good". No wonder there is so much senseless violence now.
You obviously haven't seen Band of Brothers have you?
He didn't shoot any prisoners, it was a rumour that was put about and he did nothing to quash that rumour. He explains that to Carwood Lipton in 'Breaking Point'.
Troy give the fuck up. You're are being ignorant and don't give yourself a chance to see it from others perspectives. And you are also being a hypocrite. Oh he didnt rectify the error with the truth. So what are we suppose to assume? Well it seems you are allowed to assume thats hes not good and other people arent allowed to assume he is good. You're a fuckin joke troy
And maybe from his perspective you're a warped man because you don't think hes a good person, even though he risked is life more than any other solider. Read my other comment with Lipton and him talking. The stories were probably false, and even not war is hell. So shooting armed prisoners is ok? or shooting armed enemies. I think you have the warped sence of what makes a person good or bad, dumbfuck.
Wow, seriously? This is what you do? You sit on yor fatass all day and make sure that poeple don't try to voice their opinions. Seriosly? Have you nothing better to do with your life but sit and defend some crappy youtube video. And you call me a one minded person look at yourself dumbfuck.
The fact that this isn't disrespectful to Band of brothers, nor the men who served in WW2. You don't understand that. You are being 1 minded because all you think is this is not a fitting song for this movie and it is disrespectful. Any song can fit this movie, more or less. You must think its disrespectful to make war movies then, because it is disrespectful to the men who served? You need to grow up, I am sorry to say.
Thats not what I'm saying. Im saying the song sucks, and the whole idea of trying to make killing people look cool is a poor choice. And I never said anything about making war movies. So really honestly you need to give it up.
Give up? Honestly, you have to stop saying stupid things like that. Trying to make killing people look cool? That is not what it is about either. I would like to see the type of music you like. You seem to be the only one here who hates this song, yet you watch the video? I guess one day you will learn to see from other perspectives. Anyways until then, hope you live well. I am getting tired of replying to you, and nothing getting through. Good bye and have a good night/day =).
quote:You sit on yor fatass all day and make sure that poeple don't try to voice their opinions.---fat ass?? lol. I never once said you don't have the right to voice your opinion. it is just your opinion isnt informed and you are too blinded to realize this isn't disrespectful. I can see why you think that, but it isnt.
quote: Have you nothing better to do with your life but sit and defend some crappy youtube video----Yet you keep replying attacking this video. Difference??
wats with u. why are u watching this video if you dont agree with it. im sorry but thats just the stupid. u sound like some sorta wanna be loser tryin to win a fight on the internet. its hysterical
For the most part modern pop/rock/crap music sucks and only works for two events: football games, and war. This video was awesome. I wish they hadn't cut out the last 2 secs when speirs offers that kid a smoke, and then he shakes his head in pure terror.

Well at one point in episode 7, near the end, he talks to first sergeant Lipton. He talks about these guys way back cutting off prisoners heads, and how they could be stories. And Lipton said maybe people believe it because he never denies it. Then Speirs says, maybe he doesn't deny it because he wants them to BELIEVE that he is one strong something something bad ass. Therefore i think MOST of the stories were false.

For one thing... He had actually never admitted to doing the shooting... and it was never proven, as the witnesses never actually "Witnessed" it. Spiers was a War Hero... Which is more than a lot of you can say.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Let's see, shooting unarmed prisoners in the legs to maximise their pain while bleeding to death after just having given them cigs pretending that he was okay ....makes him a "cool" and "good man" you really have a warped sense of what makes a person cool or good. Glad I don't live near you.

Take it you never watched Band of Brothers then?

What does that have to do with having a warped sense of what is "cool" or "good"? I mean come on, he's just calmly standing there shooting them down, in the legs no less, and that's "cool" and "good". No wonder there is so much senseless violence now.
troyalldis 3 years ago
You obviously haven't seen Band of Brothers have you?
He didn't shoot any prisoners, it was a rumour that was put about and he did nothing to quash that rumour. He explains that to Carwood Lipton in 'Breaking Point'.

He didn't rectify the error with the truth. What are we to assume then? That he wanted to be thought of as that type of person? :/
troyalldis 3 years ago
Troy give the fuck up. You're are being ignorant and don't give yourself a chance to see it from others perspectives. And you are also being a hypocrite. Oh he didnt rectify the error with the truth. So what are we suppose to assume? Well it seems you are allowed to assume thats hes not good and other people arent allowed to assume he is good. You're a fuckin joke troy
BandxOfxBrothers 3 years ago 2
And maybe from his perspective you're a warped man because you don't think hes a good person, even though he risked is life more than any other solider. Read my other comment with Lipton and him talking. The stories were probably false, and even not war is hell. So shooting armed prisoners is ok? or shooting armed enemies. I think you have the warped sence of what makes a person good or bad, dumbfuck.

Wow, seriously? This is what you do? You sit on yor fatass all day and make sure that poeple don't try to voice their opinions. Seriosly? Have you nothing better to do with your life but sit and defend some crappy youtube video. And you call me a one minded person look at yourself dumbfuck.

BandxOfxBrothers 3 years ago
Really? What am I oblivious to?
craymcdaniel 3 years ago
The fact that this isn't disrespectful to Band of brothers, nor the men who served in WW2. You don't understand that. You are being 1 minded because all you think is this is not a fitting song for this movie and it is disrespectful. Any song can fit this movie, more or less. You must think its disrespectful to make war movies then, because it is disrespectful to the men who served? You need to grow up, I am sorry to say.
BandxOfxBrothers 3 years ago
Thats not what I'm saying. Im saying the song sucks, and the whole idea of trying to make killing people look cool is a poor choice. And I never said anything about making war movies. So really honestly you need to give it up.
craymcdaniel 3 years ago
Give up? Honestly, you have to stop saying stupid things like that. Trying to make killing people look cool? That is not what it is about either. I would like to see the type of music you like. You seem to be the only one here who hates this song, yet you watch the video? I guess one day you will learn to see from other perspectives. Anyways until then, hope you live well. I am getting tired of replying to you, and nothing getting through. Good bye and have a good night/day =).

I never once said you don't have the right to voice your opinion. it is just your opinion isnt informed and you are too blinded to realize this isn't disrespectful. I can see why you think that, but it isnt.
quote: Have you nothing better to do with your life but sit and defend some crappy youtube video----Yet you keep replying attacking this video. Difference??

For the most part modern pop/rock/crap music sucks and only works for two events: football games, and war. This video was awesome. I wish they hadn't cut out the last 2 secs when speirs offers that kid a smoke, and then he shakes his head in pure terror.
