"we all know war stories seem to have a life of their own. they have a way of growing, of being embellished. whether the details are precise or not, there must be a kernel of truth for such a story to ever have been told the first time.”

"he worked hard to earn a reputation as a killer and he often killed for shock value. what he did in normandy was unbelievable, inexcusable. in today's army, speirs would have been court-martialed and charged with atrocities, but we desperately needed bodies, officers who led by example and were not afraid to engage the enemy. speirs fit the bill."

I knew he was a crazy mf!!!

the things they did to doyle. holy fucking shit

speirs is bad at math just like me 💕
