How is your favorite Paratrooper in BoB?
Compton was a badass until he crapped his pants in Bastogne.
Luz was funny but was just a clown with no combat skill.

he was a fucking war criminal
>A rolling artillery barrage had been coordinated in support of the ground assault on the morning of 7 June; to initiate the attack, artillery fire was adjusted back towards American lines before moving forward in increments. Speirs ordered his platoon to hold position until the fire was completed to prevent serious casualties and friendly fire. One of his squad leaders ignored the orders due to fatigue and disorientation; after his order was ignored a second time, Speirs shot the sergeant between the eyes, then promptly reported the incident to the company commander, Captain Jerre S. Gross. Gross was killed in combat the next day and the incident was not pursued.[6]

Mother fucker wouldn't follow the orders of his platoon leader, he deserved to get shot.

Nixon and Winters were great, as were Bill, Shifty, Popeye, Muck, and Lipton.
But let's stop kidding ourselves. There's only one acceptable answer:

>NCO disobeying orders and trying to get his men killed
Spiers even turned himself when he shot him. If anything he did was wrong, it was killing those kraut prisoners. Allegedly.

I love how he is so calm like he's just doing a standard safety drill at his normal job during all of this.
>shitting un Luz and Compton
Buck just saw two of his friends get their legs blown off, he gets a pass for being shocked.
>Luz
>no combat skill
Every member of Easy was somewhat skilled at combat and Luz survived until the end which counts for something.
My 3 favourites are Speirs, Guarnere and Luz.
I met Buck Compton irl and he said that the show made him look like a pussy, and wasn't reflective of what actually happened.

I think Luz would've been the most important person for me personally to have with me in my battalion. Just someone that can make you crack up day after day even in those shitty conditions would go a long way as far as keeping your sanity.
People could tell the difference between all those ethnically-ambiguous jews and italians?
