Episode 3: Carentan - In-Depth Discussion
Talk in depth about Blithe and the three leaders who try to help him--Welsh, Speirs, and Winters. Discuss the battle of Carentan. Where did the tanks come from? Who were the German paratroopers they fought? Was there a contrast between Speirs and Winters in more than just the Blithe sequences? The episode focuses mostly on the battle of Carentan and after, but adds an extensive coda in Aldbourne. What do you think of it? The Malarkey picks-up-dead-men's laundry sequence; the Night of the Bayonet; and more. A jam-packed episode.
