MEET THE PEOPLE & HEAR THEIR STORIES

We believe that the story of Easy Company in the HBO series, Band of Brothers is popular around the world because it is a real story of real people. Our tour goes to the same places that Easy Co. trained and fought throughout Europe, but we go BEYOND their story to have the local people of those places tell their unique stories. Therefore, you meet and hear from the 'Liberated', not only the 'Liberators'.

Our concept is to bring you face to face with the personal history of the people of these areas.
Each day as we travel on our first-class tour bus, we will watch the video interviews of the people of our next destination. Then we will meet those people at dinner that evening!

This will allow you to interact with them and have a more personal, intimate experience and learn about encounters you can't find in the history books.

Meet and talk with English people in the Aldbourne area who housed the paratroopers. Learn what it was like for the two cultures to interact for nearly 9 months
 
Meet and talk with people from Normandy to understand what it was like to live under 4 years of German occupation and then be liberated on D-Day. Learn what impact that day and the battles afterward had on that area and their lives.
 
Meet and talk with Dutch people who watched the skies as they filled with parachutes on Sept. 17th during operation Market-Garden. Talk with people from the Dutch resistance and learn what it was like to be a child during the war.
