They saved Captain Sobel's life.

The plane he was supposed to be on in D-Day was shot down with all its passangers aboard.

By forcing Col. Sink to transfer him they saved his life, just like he saved theirs by giving them extra difficult training and rough discipline.

if Sobel had led men in actual combat it wouldn't be long b 4 he'd be dead, if not by Germans then by his own men lol

Captain Sobel was a good training officer, but not a good combat officer. I am surprised no one of the original recruits of easy company attended his funeral. his rough training made them able to survive the war by his excellent training of them.

Capt.Sobel trained them to be battle ready, but he himself was not ready for the war.

Am I the only one who's in love with this man's accent? :))))

I especially like it when he says: "I ought to have you all shot!", just before this part starts.

@carde028 Sgt. Harris was the leader of this and the second Sgt. Ranney was his 2nd in command, but oddly enough before they jumped off Sgt. Ranney was re-protmoted to Sergeant probably bc he was a good leader. he held the rank sgt for the war.

Lewis Nixon, a little earlier, pointed out that Sobel is a genius. While not necessarily true, he clarified it by saying "Do you know any of these guys who wouldn't double time Curahee just to piss in his coffee?"

Sobel's tough discipline made them the soldiers they were and prepared them better for combat. But his lack of field command ability meant that he couldn't lead them into combat. Sink was right to keep him in training and as someone else pointed out, that transfer saved his life.

he woulda been fragged in 2 mins of landing in the "confusion" of normandy....ehh shit happens! haha

[TheAlexander8898]

What happened to them that made them get into trouble?

[HittokiriBattousai17]

@dougpowers2 Exactly, and it's perfectly legal

[carde028]

I dont get why he punished a few of them. why not just yell at them and then keep them all as NCO's?
