no he was a stupid asshole, but even the real dick winters said that they probably wouldn't have done as good as they did if their DI wouldn't have been such a stupid asshole
THAT'S IT.
WE'RE RUNNING CURRAHEE!!!
In band of brothers he wanted to train those men not to get killed
That prick was a son of a brie ham.
Yes sir
MY SANDWICH?
>David Schwimmer
Which movie is this?
What is this? Anybody?
Yoo-hoo! Did you forget how to salute, soldier?
he was terrible as a combat leader, but a great drill sergeant. If he had stayed on purely to train GIs that would have been the best use for him
peaches, sir?
If he was competent then he would have got away with his bullshit. But if he was competent would he have been like that?
CONTRBAND, weekend pass revoked
He couldn't read a map
What was his tax policy?
All tax refunds are revoked, thanks to the fraud committed by the ((((big)))) banks.
We are on a tax break!
He such a drama queen with the Hi Ho Silver and talking weird all the time.
Right, if he was good he be a big drama queen like Monty or Patton, but he just made everyone hate him. He was practically voted off the island.
He was more competent than Foxhole Norman, only difference is Sobel didn't come from a wealthy family
>jew
>officer
wtf america?
the real dick winters was such a buttersoft bitch that he had to beg brass to let him skip out on Korea because "muh horrors of war" as if he was on the eastern front or some shit.
Dude lived a horrible life till the day he died
they succeeded BECAUSE of him, not DESPITE him. He is an unsung hero
does he only appear in the first episode?
i think i missed that one because i have no recollection of him but he's the only BoB character ever mentoned
I'M LOSING MY UNIT!?!?!?!
gb2bed Patton
he has a brief appearance at the end when they mock for getting passed in rank

no gratitude for all he did to prepare them
The training worked.
He was just made for the field and couldn't understand that.
>In 1970, Sobel attempted suicide when he shot himself in the head with a small-caliber pistol. The bullet entered his left temple, passed behind his eyes, and exited out the other side of his head. This severed his optic nerves and left him blind. He entered a VA assisted living facility in Waukegan, Illinois. He resided there for his last 17 years until his death due to malnutrition on 30 September 1987.No services were held for him after his death.
Damn.
On his wikipedia it said 0 people came to his funeral or someshit.
Meanwhile winters had 1600 friends come to his.
ABSOLUTE DICKS.
he was a jew though so... curb.png
They hated him because he went full retard too many times (eg the Winters court martial) while simultaneously being utterly incompetent as a field officer.
In a funny way his incompetence saved himself from death. The D-Day plane carrying the guy who replaced him was shot down and everyone killed.
Whats wrong with that? He fought hard before, he didnt want to do it again.
how about I slap your shit?
>17 years blind from botched suicide alone in a care home
WAKE ME UP
>In June 1951, Winters was recalled to active duty in the Army during the Korean War.[2]:256 He was ordered to join the 11th Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, but he was given six months to report and in this time he traveled to Washington, D.C. to speak to General Anthony McAuliffe, in the hope that he could convince the Army not to send him to Korea.[2]:256
>Speirs returned to the United States and decided to remain in the Army, serving in the Korean War. On 23 March 1951, he participated in Operation Tomahawk in which he made a combat parachute jump into Munsan-ni with nearly 3,500 other troopers in his unit (187th Regimental Combat Team). As a rifle company commander,[citation needed] he was part of his battalion's mission to secure the drop zone, killing forty or fifty enemy soldiers in the process.[6]
the chad speirs vs the virgin dick
HI HO SILVER
It was a failure of command, guy should've stayed as a DI since he obviously excelled at it instead of being pushed into something he obviously was shit at.
If the higher ups just kept him training boots maybe he wouldn't have such a shitty life and tried to an-hero down the line.
>Speirs
That dude just love killing people. Killed Germans, killed gooks, would have killed Japs if he got the chance, killed a drunk sergeant who pointed a gun at him.
some men are put on this earth to operate
