As a volunteer soldier, he wants to spend his time in army by positive time and with no excuses seriously takes action combat during the war. His motivation, leadership skill and an ability to solve the conflict bring Easy Company lead the campaign the war in Europe. At the beginning of the war, his action in Europe is only to show his willingness to serve the company. As the time passed, he realizes that the war is not only about fighting with enemy, but also helping and releasing the Jewish people who are placed in a concentration camp and treated badly by Germany soldiers. The aim of the study is to find out the meanings of Richard Dick Winters action during his military service. There are two research questions in this study. The first question is “How is Richard Dick Winters described in the novel?”And the second one is “What are the meanings of Richard Dick Winters’ action during his military service?” The theories that are implemented in this study are the theory of character and characterization, the theory of leadership, the theory of motivation and the theory of conflict. The approach used is psychological approach. The primary data of this study is a novel entitled Band of Brothers, while the secondary ones are: Literary books, psychology books, related books and internet. After analyzing the novel, it can be concluded that Richard Winters is described as a hard working, kind, humble, self-confident, spiritual, wise, caring and decisive person. Then, the meanings Winters’ action are taking the Germany battery, solving the conflict among his men and changing the leader of Easy Company. Further, the deeper meanings are he does not want to be killed in the first day, refuses to be underestimated by his men, wants to lead Easy Company once more and helps Jewish people, who are treated badly by Germany soldiers. For future researchers, it is recommended to analyze the meaning of people around Winters’ action, such as Nixon’s or Sobel’s action. It is also suggested that the novel is used as the material to teach reading.

The Meanings of Richard Dick Winters’ Action During His Military Service as Seen in Stephen E. Ambrose’s Band of Brothers.Yogyakarta: Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris, Universitas Sanata Dharma Study in berkaitan dengan novel Band Of Brothers, sebuah novel yang ditulis oleh Stephen E. Ambrose. Novel ini bercerita tentang Richard Dick Winters. Winters adalah tentara yang melayani negaranya pada Perang Dunia I, melawan jerman. Dia bergabung dengan pasukan penerjun payung di sebuah kompi, yang bernama Kompi Easy. Sebagai tentara sukarela, dia ingin menjalani waktu di kemiliteran dengan hal-hal positif tanpa banyak keluhan yang mengganggu. Jadi, dia melaksanakan dengan serius semua tugasnya selama perang. Motivasi Winters, kepemimpinannya dan cara dia mengatasi konflik, membawa kompi Easy memimpin kampanye perang di Eropa. Pada awalnya, aksinya di perang Eropa hanya sebatas untuk melayani negaranya. Seiring berjalannya waktu, dia sadar bahwa perang ini tidak hanya untuk mengalahkan musuh, tetapi juga untuk membantu dan melepaskan kaum Yahudi. Tujuan dari studi ini adalah mencari arti dari aksi Winters selama berada di kemiliteran. Ada dua pertanyaan yang harus dijawab dalam studi ini, yang pertama “Bagaimana Richard Winters digambarkan dalam novel?”, yang kedua “Apa arti aksi dari Richard Winters selama di kemiliteran?”. Teori yang digunakan adalah teori karakter dan perwatakan, teori kepemimpinan, teori motivasi dan teori konflik. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah pendekatan psikologi. Sumber data pada studi ini adalah novel Band Of Brothers, sementara itu sumber kedua adalah buku literatur, buku psikologi, buku-buku yang terkait dan dari internet. Dari hasil studi ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa Richard Winters digambarkan sebagai pekerja keras, baik hati, rendah hati, percaya diri, spiritual, bijaksana, perhatian dan tegas. Lalu, arti dari aksi Winters adalah mengambil alih meriam Jerman, menyelesaikan konflik diantara tentara dan mengganti tongkat kepemimpinan di Kompi Easy. Untuk arti lebih mendalam, Winters tidak mau tebunuh sia-sia pada hari pertama, diremehkan oleh para anak buahnya dan sebenaranya dia ingin lagi memimpin Kompi Easy dan yang terakhir untuk membantu kaum Yahudi yang diperlakukan buruk oleh tentara Jerman. Untuk para peneliti selanjutnya, disarankan untuk menganalisa orang- orang disekitar Winters, seperti Nixon atau Sobel. Lalu juga disarankan bahwa novel ini dapat digunakan sebagai materi untuk mengajar reading.

  • Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 2: Day of Days
    Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 2: Day of Days INTRO: Band of Brothers is a ten-part video series dramatizing the history of one company of American paratroopers in World War Two—E Company, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne, known as “Easy Company.” Although the company’s first experience in real combat did not come until June 1944 ( D-Day), this exemplary group fought in some of the war’s most harrowing battles. Band of Brothers depicts not only the heroism of their exploits but also the extraordinary bond among men formed in the crucible of war. The second episode focuses on the Normandy invasion and Easy Company’s assignment to take out a German artillery installation. On June 6, 1944, thousands of Allied paratroopers dropped from the sky to begin one of the most audacious military campaigns of the war—and one of the most crucial. However, careful planning notwithstanding, most of the members of Easy Company miss their designated drop zones and had to begin the invasion by dealing with their extreme disorientation (heightened for many by the anti-nausea medication the soldiers were instructed to take). With Richard Winters as the company’s commanding officer, Easy Company successfully executes its first assignment in the field, destroying a German artillery installation firing on Allied infantry trying to come ashore. CURRICULUM LINKS: Band of Brothers can be used in history classes. NOTE TO EDUCATORS: Band of Brothers is appropriate as a supplement to units on World War Two, not as a substitute for material providing a more general explanation of the war’s causes, effects, and greater historical significance.

  • Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 6: Bastogne
    Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 6: Bastogne INTRO: Band of Brothers is a ten-part video series dramatizing the history of one company of American paratroopers in World War Two—E Company, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne, known as “Easy Company.” Although the company’s first experience in real combat did not come until June 1944 ( D-Day), this exemplary group fought in some of the war’s most harrowing battles. Band of Brothers depicts not only the heroism of their exploits but also the extraordinary bond among men formed in the crucible of war. In the sixth episode, Easy Company is in the Ardennes Forest, outside of Bastogne, Belgium, trying to defend the Allied line against a German counterattack in December 1944. This contest, popularly known as the Battle of the Bulge, sees the Allies face a bitter winter with inadequate supplies of ammunition, food, and medical goods for the long, entrenched battle. The Axis counterattack was ultimately rebuffed, but not without the Allies suffering some 77,000 casualties. This episode is particularly effective in depicting the harsh physical conditions of the war (and might be compared to the German’s struggle to take Stalingrad, in which the losses were much higher). Fighting frostbite and hunger in the foxholes, Easy Company’s trials demonstrate the experience of isolation and boredom of battle. The importance of medical treatment and supplies is also a prominent theme of this episode. CURRICULUM LINKS: Band of Brothers can be used in history classes. NOTE TO EDUCATORS: Band of Brothers is appropriate as a supplement to units on World War Two, not as a substitute for material providing a more general explanation of the war’s causes, effects, and greater historical significance.

  • Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 9: Why We Fight
    Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 9: Why We Fight INTRO: Band of Brothers is a ten-part video series dramatizing the history of one company of American paratroopers in World War Two—E Company, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne, known as “Easy Company.” Although the company’s first experience in real combat did not come until June 1944 ( D-Day), this exemplary group fought in some of the war’s most harrowing battles. Band of Brothers depicts not only the heroism of their exploits but also the extraordinary bond among men formed in the crucible of war. In the ninth episode, Easy Company finally enters Germany in April 1945, finding very little resistance as they proceed. There they are impressed by the industriousness of the defeated locals and gain respect for their humanity. But the G.I.s are then confronted with the horror of an abandoned Nazi concentration camp in the woods, which the locals claim not to have known anything about. Here the story of Easy Company is connected with the broader narrative of the war—the ideology of the Third Reich and Hitler’s plan to exterminate the Jews. CURRICULUM LINKS: Band of Brothers can be used in history classes. NOTE TO EDUCATORS: Band of Brothers is appropriate as a supplement to units on World War Two, not as a substitute for material providing a more general explanation of the war’s causes, effects, and greater historical significance. As with war itself, it contains graphic violence and language; it is not for the squeamish. Mature senior high school students, however, will find in it a powerful evocation of the challenges of war and the experience of U.S.

    Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 7: The Breaking Point INTRO: Band of Brothers is a ten-part video series dramatizing the history of one company of American paratroopers in World War Two—E Company, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne, known as “Easy Company.” Although the company’s first experience in real combat did not come until June 1944 ( D-Day), this exemplary group fought in some of the war’s most harrowing battles. Band of Brothers depicts not only the heroism of their exploits but also the extraordinary bond among men formed in the crucible of war. As the title of this episode suggests, the seventh episode sees Easy Company pushed to “the breaking point” after more and more unrelenting combat. After successfully thwarting the German counterattack in the Ardennes, Easy Company is sent to take the Belgian town of Foy. The company suffers, however, from more casualties, sinking morale, and lapses in leadership. This episode, more than any other perhaps, depicts the great emotional and psychological strain that soldiers endured in battle. CURRICULUM LINKS: Band of Brothers can be used in history classes.

  • Ordinary Heroes: Depictions of Masculinity in World War II Film a Thesis Submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in Pa
    Ordinary Heroes: Depictions of Masculinity in World War II Film A thesis submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors with Distinction by Robert M. Dunlap May 2007 Oxford, Ohio Abstract Much work has been done investigating the historical accuracy of World War II film, but no work has been done using these films to explore social values. From a mixed film studies and historical perspective, this essay investigates movie images of American soldiers in the European Theater of Operations to analyze changing perceptions of masculinity. An examination of ten films chronologically shows a distinct change from the post-war period to the present in the depiction of American soldiers. Masculinity undergoes a marked change from the film Battleground (1949) to Band of Brothers (2001). These changes coincide with monumental shifts in American culture. Events such as the loss of the Vietnam War dramatically changed perceptions of the Second World War and the men who fought during that time period. The United States had to deal with a loss of masculinity that came with their defeat in Vietnam and that shift is reflected in these films. The soldiers depicted become more skeptical of their leadership and become more uncertain of themselves while simultaneously appearing more emotional. Over time, realistic images became acceptable and, in fact, celebrated as truthful while no less masculine. In more recent years, there is a return to the heroism of the World War II generation, with an added emotionality and dimensionality. Films reveal not only the popular opinions of the men who fought and reflect on the validity of the war, but also show contemporary views of masculinity and warfare.

During those years we undertook many adventures, including the first overseas tour he led – a 1980 journey from the Normandy D-Day beaches to the Rhine River. I persuaded Steve to take that first tour, but thereafter he fell in love with helping others experience this epic story and wanted to go back as often as Hope he could. Drawing on Steve’s knowledge of the subject, I worked with our mutual friend, Peter McLean, and put together the tour operations. Subsequently, we ran tours almost every other year for some 20 years, including one in 1994 commemorating the 50th anniversary of D-Day. It was during those years, as I served as a Dean and Vice Chancellor at UNO, that Steve and I established the Eisenhower Center for American Studies, which facilitated his collecting more than 600 oral histories from D-Day veterans.

  • Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 4: Replacements
    Study Guide for Band of Brothers – Episode 4: Replacements INTRO: Band of Brothers is a ten-part video series dramatizing the history of one company of American paratroopers in World War Two—E Company, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne, known as “Easy Company.” Although the company’s first experience in real combat did not come until June 1944 ( D-Day), this exemplary group fought in some of the war’s most harrowing battles. Band of Brothers depicts not only the heroism of their exploits but also the extraordinary bond among men formed in the crucible of war. The fourth episode sees Easy Company head into German-occupied Holland for Operation Market-Garden, part of a strategy for the Allies to end the war by entering Germany through the Netherlands. Despite some early victories for the Allies, fierce German resistance demonstrates that this plan will not work. The title of this episode, Replacements, refers to the tension between the replacements who arrive to replenish Easy Company’s strength and the seasoned, tired soldiers who resent the new arrivals’ innocence and eagerness for battle experience. CURRICULUM LINKS: Band of Brothers can be used in history classes. NOTE TO EDUCATORS: Band of Brothers is appropriate as a supplement to units on World War Two, not as a substitute for material providing a more general explanation of the war’s causes, effects, and greater historical significance. As with war itself, it contains graphic violence and language; it is not for the squeamish.
