In western Arabia, Mecca and Medina (Figure 7.6) fought through the 620s over trade routes, their war bands fanning out across the desert to find allies and ambush each other's caravans.

a well deserved rest

my secret santa gift for @onlyyouexisthere ✨ i hope you enjoy this drawing of winters having a little break, which we could all use

#my art #hbowarsanta24 #band of brothers #hbo war #richard winters #dick winters #u mentioned liking the little scenes of the guys relaxing or laughing #so choosing a moment from the end of the war felt appropriate #i was going for something peaceful…… so here is winters having a little moment of quiet to himself #i was inspired by an old recolored pic of the guys from easy in berchtesgaden #and i realize now this makes it look like winters draw all that wine but i promise he’s just having coffee #let’s say nix or some other guys were just with him lol #also i listened to the Sing Movie (animated animal movie) version of golden slumbers/carry that weight #for the last like 3 hours of working on this thing. that isn’t relevant to anything but feels worth mentioning #for vibes maybe #but anywayyyyyyy HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!#i hope it is restful and brings some peace!!!!

EUGENE G. "DOC" ROE // Born October 17, 1922

Without (Doc Roe), we wouldn't be alive. Roe was the best medic we ever had. He was born to be a medic. You could always depend on him. You hollered, "Medic!" and he was right there, come hell or high water. He knew what he was doing. He was compassionate, took care of you mentally, physically, every way. - Bill Guarnere in Brothers in Battle, Best of Friends

#happy doc roe day!#eugene roe #band of brothers #doc roe #mine: gifs #hbo war

when a lovely flame dies, smoke gets in your eyes

OR: what were we supposed to take away from episode 4 if not ‘bucky is a war widow’

#masters of the air #mota #motaedit #hbowaredit #bucky egan #john egan #clegan #like it's genuinely a 1:1 parallel and i'm NOT supposed to read bucky in ep4 as a grieving widow???#this kind of also turned into a rumination on how willfully optimistic bucky is that they'll both make it through the war #(he has no other choice. his heart couldn't take another—)#hence the titular smoke getting in his eyes. you understand #he's blinded by love and then by rage. and i adore him #this ended up being more of a video essay than an amv so i hope people enjoy it!!#i had a really good time making it and i'm really proud :')#particularly the sequence of him seeing the bomb in london -> seeing the bomb in germany -> the sunset in algiers #also clearly continuing my mission of making mota amvs to big band / jazz :)))#ANYWAY.#kbsd.amv #kbsd.hbow #40sjukebox
