Hi, so I'm starting this and I promise I will actually finished this fanfic, unlike all the others I have started but never finished. So yell at me to keep me motivated or something.

Disclaimer: I do not own Band of Brothers, this is purely for entertainment purposes. This is based off of the HBO miniseries. No disrespect is intended towards the real men of Easy company.

This chapter is kind of a short introduction to the story. Please review and let me know what you think :)

June 6, 1955

I lit myself a cigarette before sitting at the typewriter.

"Where are you starting?" he asked. Him, the reason I woke up in the mornings, the reason I lived and breathed.

"At the beginning," I responded. He nodded, kissing the top of my head before setting down a coffee for me.

June, 1942

"Miss Sobel, I hope you realize that enlisting a woman is not something I should take lightly. I understand that with your brother in charge of Easy company you'll be in capable hands. However, you have no qualifications that make you a necessity for the 506th, or even the 101st." Colonel Sink was attempting to reason with my request to join the 506th.

"Major General Lee did approve my request sir; I know fluent German and French, and basic medical care." I replied with the same information I knew Major General Lee had already told him.

Colonel Sink sighed, "Your brother is training what is going to be the best company in the Regiment. I hope you can live up to his standards as well as mine."

"Sir?"

"I'm placing you in Easy Company, Private Sobel."

"Yes, sir."

"Go with Private Gordon to collect your uniform and other necessities and have him show you to your barracks." Colonel Sink stood to salute and I mimicked his actions before turning to leave.
