Band of Brothers | Masters of the Air | Requests open :)

Hello and welcome to my blog !!

My name is Ellie, and I'm 23. In the words of Curt Biddick, "I'm Irish." I'm currently obsessed with Band of Brothers and Masters of the Air. The Pacific is at the top of my watch list, so new obsession incoming!! Downton Abbey and Call the Midwife are my guilty pleasures.

I love history, and I love writing, so this blog is definitely a combination of both. I'm trying to read more, so maybe I might post some book reviews.

You'll find my masterlist below. My requests are open. I'll occasionally post prompts that you can choose from, but feel free to send me your own prompts.

Bill Guarnere's Question for Prince Charles

*Author's Note: This actually happened after "Band of Brothers" had aired on HBO. I read about it online and it was discussed on a Spotify podcast. I think it took place before 2010.*

Some of the men from Easy Company were going to London to present the then Prince Charles with a portrait of the elite British paratroopers known as the Red Devils. These men also fought in the Netherlands during Operation Market Gardens.

Each man from Easy Company was interviewed and schooled on proper etiquette when dealing with a member of the British Royal family.

An interviewer asked Bill Guarnere,

"If you could ask Prince Charles one question, what would it be?" Without a moment's hesitation, Guarnere replied,

"I'd ask him why he got rid of the cute blonde girl (Diana) and took up with that horse faced broad (Camilla)." Bill didn't get to go to London.

That night I took time to thank God for seeing me through that day of days and prayed I would make it through D-plus-one. And if, somehow, I managed to get home again, I promised God and myself that I would find a quiet piece of land someplace and spend the rest of my life in peace.
