As we´re in the subject of war in my channel, I want you all to read up on what´s happening with Ukraine and Russia as well.
Having awareness of this is quite important.
I just spent three hours in a brief about it. I wish I was a bit less aware....
Russians are about to overrun my wife’s hometown of Chernihiv, but she and my mother in-law are safe with me Stateside. My brother’s wife returned to get visas for family but had to flee for the mountains when a cruise missile hit near her home in Ivano-Frankivsk.
I didnt get any sleep at all... sometimes I think it can be difficult being so empathetic a person. How can anyone sleep seeing what's happening in Ukraine...?!?! 🙁😢
I have many friends in both countries and Belarus. Its seriously grim and worrying
I hope that you and everyone you know are safe. We are praying for everyone in Ukraine
I actually met RV Burgin who met his wife in Melbourne when he was there with the Marines at the same time as Leckie. He doesn't appear until later in this series, but they're were still together in the US after all these years!
Yes silk was very hard to get for several reasons. Most of the worlds silk back then came from Asia which was a war zone. But also because the militaries of the world needed it for things like parachutes so silk was rationed to civilians.
As a US Marine who has been to Australia, I definitely had a great time. By the way, the Marine who face plant… I’ve been there, done that.

Semper Fi brother. Australia is a blast.
@@mickluchsinger486Yut! 🍻 My kid brother rotated out of Darwin in 2017 with Lima, 3/4. His battalion was on constant restrictions and almost had a good time. LOL
Semper fi
My buddies ship broke down on the way to Australia and had to be towed back to Japan. To say he was disappointed is an understatement lol
@@moappleseider1699 I was on the USS Tortuga ported near Lima, Peru. Ship lost an anchor which extended Liberty by over a week. Navy never found the anchor and we partied hard with the locals.
The real action of the Pacific does come, the nature of the two books the miniseries is based on and in many ways both the characters depicted, their experiences and the Pacific War means that you do get more periods focussing on non-combat, both some of the more US/Australian home front and the grinding battle not against the Japanese but the conditions, weather and terrain of the islands themselves.
"Why is it so awkward?"
Because many of these soldiers were boys, teenage boys. The average age of a soldier in World War II was 26 years old. The average age of a soldier on the beach on D-Day was 20 years old. This low average was typical of frontline soldiers, as it was thought it better that soldiers be younger, in better condition, and not be traumatized by having previous combat experience.
Many of the soldiers depicted in the show are 18 and 19 year olds, from strongly Christian rural areas.
In other words, a lot of these soldiers joined the army as virgins, fought as virgins and died virgins.
Not soldiers. Marines.
@@alanholck7995 Oh really? Are you saying Marines aren't soldiers?
I was under the impression that all Marines are soldiers but not all soldiers are Marines.
I see what you're doing here. You're being a hair splitting little pedant because you think it's making a point.
Obviously, you must be posing as an ex-marine. Which is kind of a strange thing to do because in your other comments you indicate you were an airman, a member of the United States Chairforce. I look forward to hearing the story of how you won the Purple Heart for having bed sores on your ass.
See what I did there, just to annoy you? I got more where that came from, princess.
@@MykeruMedia The term soldier is typically used for members of the Army. The Marines I was stationed with in Okinawa, as well as other locations, would have taken offense at being called 'soldiers'.
@@alanholck7995 Well, the Marines you were stationed with must have been the precious panty brigade because no marine and I've ever known took offense being called a soldier. My guess is they were just giving some guy from the Air Force a hard time. As they should. As is the right and duty of every other service member, up to and including the Coast Guard.
@@MykeruMedia Take care.
As they hadn't marched in a while and had been given all new boots that needed breaking in. Those were blisters , blisters that had burst and blisters on blisters
Worst one I had was a blister underneath my big toe nail. Duck tape kept it in place for the final 8 clicks hump back to the barracks.
I know the 2 pair we got in boot camp broke my feet in, not the other way around. Left holes in both my ankles.
I binge watched the band of brothers and now I’m checking daily for the pacific! My two favourite series of all times! I love seeing someone else’s reaction to something I have watched over 10 times each. It’s like I’m experiencing them all over again. This series gets pretty dark soon, all shadow the perils of war.
I forgot about some of Stella's and bobs erm shall we say euphemisms during that scene 🤣🤣🤣
Your reactions this episode were amazing as ever , arguably one of the better reactions I've seen to this episode
As a Marine the hardest thing we had to do was make our families worry, and at least Stella had the backbone to say up front she couldn't do it. NEVER FORGOTTEN USMC
Semper fi
Stella is a made-up character.
I must say I laughed every time you laughed. Thanks for reacting to this. My uncle fought in WW2 in the Pacific. He was in the Navy. He didn't like talking about it, so I don't really know what he did. After the war he joined the Army and ultimately went to Korea. I have his purple heart from his service there.
You being quiet is why we love you because its REAL! Nothing worse then fake reactions. You being absolutely beautiful and cute helps too :)
Honestly this might be my favorite or at least second favorite episode of the Pacific. It's a part of the PTO it feels like we rarely see in popular media. I'm also a bit of a romantic so the stuff with the Americans and the beautiful Aussie women they meet is very entertaining as well
Welcome to Melbourne. The scenes of the Marines camping out in a stadium were filmed at Victoria Park, right next to where I live. I run laps of that park regularly.
They are Marines, not soldiers.
Noice! That calls for Shoey time. 😉 🍺 🥾
I thought it was the G
In Texas, Article III is called, "Daddy cleans shotgun"
12:44 "and there was a little bit of action" there was certainly some action 🤣😭
No words for stella and her family. Amazing
I don't wish to spoil anything for you, but both Bob Leckie and Eugene Sledge wrote about their adventures. Their published works were used to create 'The Pacific'.
Been refreshing for the past hour to wait for your post
Those were blisters on their feet. In the Army I've marched until blood seeped from my boots and several toenails fell off.
Hey Centane, I bet you never could have guessed what would happen. “A little bit of action.” Yah, I bet you never would have guessed what that meant in this episode!
One thing I don't see anyone commenting on, The Congressional Medal of Honor, MOH. The Congressional Medal of Honor is the highest award for any man or woman serving in the United States military. Few recieve it and most are awarded posthumously. When I was a kid we went to Hawaii for vacation in December and attended the Perl Harbor memorial service. there was one old guy there who was up on the Upper podium with the Military and Special guests. He was in civilian clothing and had around his neck a blue ribbon that had a medal on it. I was struck by the level of respect everyone was affording him and how even officers saluted to him. I was confused by this thinking that only the President as a civilian got that treatment. It was respect to him as one of the few survivors of the USS Arizona I was sure but later a Navy officer who was answering questions from a bunch of us kids told me it was more about his CMH. I never did learn the man's name, but the memory always stuck with me. Here are 6 special benefits that serve as an enduring “thank you” from the American people: 1. Preferred access to military academies for their dependents. 2. A monthly stipend. 3. Free, priority Space-A travel (Medal recipients are granted lifelong access to the military’s “Space A” travel, which allows active duty military members, some veterans and their dependents to hitch rides in empty seats on military planes. MoH recipients get preferred access, meaning they can jump the line). 4. Special parking spots and on-base amenities. 5. Special status in the exchange of salutes, (While military members aren’t required to salute Medal of Honor recipients, they are encouraged to do so as long as the recipient is physically wearing the medal, even when the recipient is in civilian clothes. Also, while military salutes in other situations are always up the rank structure - meaning the junior soldier salutes the senior one - anyone may render a salute to a MoH recipient first. There have even been cases of American presidents saluting MoH recipients. 6. Headstones with gold lettering and full burial honors, (Medal of Honor recipients are guaranteed a burial with full military honors - an honor otherwise only guaranteed to retirees and active duty service members. This includes a nine-member team of six pallbearers, a chaplain, an officer-in-charge or noncommissioned-officer-in-charge and a bugler. At the gravesite, the MoH recipient is also entitled to a special headstone with gold lettering).
In Helmet for My Pillow, Robert Lecke says that the thing on his foot you were looking at was a blister from the boots he and several others had been assinged. They were Australiaan Infantry boots because they lacked Marine boots at the time. After that incident, they were never made to wear them again.
I guess you have never had bad Blisters. Since my mother was a nurse and I practically grew up in a hospital I got the dubious honor of carrying the Blister/Medical Bag in Basic. I had scalpels instead of a KBAR knife but it was about the same. Puncture blisters that hadn't broken on their own, excise the lose skin, clean out with hydrogen peroxide, rub in neosporin with gauze, cover with Mole Skin. You really had to clean out the blisters. The green wool socks they issued us had been treated with pesticide/mothballs and would cause an infection if you weren't careful. It's a lot worse when you have to work on your own feet. :)
You will see more of Basilone later in the series. Something to look forward to.
Always nice hanging out with you,
Kamilla -
Don't worry about no action this episode. This series is going to challenge you more than you expect.
Amazing reaction GREAT EPISODE! to get ready for what's coming
The Marines got some new boots of poor quality ( I read it from a certain source... if you have read it, you will know the source so- no spoilers from me.) and had to go on a really long march. So breaking in new boots, and not very good ones, they got blisters pretty bad.
I've broken in great boots and cheap boots.
They will all give you blisters until the leather softens and starts to move the way your foot moves.
Steel toed boots are even worse than combat boots since the toes don't move.
Marine Boondockers were some of the best quality boots in the military
@@LoneWolf051 The boots used in the march were not the usual boots. They were locally made boots and inferior to the usual ones issued. It is commented about in "Helmet for my Pillow"
Watching from Melbourne, Australia😁
Don't worry about not saying much during the video. Who likes to hear someone jabbering through the whole thing anyway? Your reactions are just fine!
Great reaction. And just so you know, it's okay to be certain that Stella's situation would have been rough had she stayed with Leckie. You don't always need experience to have knowledge about something. I may get some flack for rejecting the argument from authority fallacy, but the truth is that you don't need to "taste the doughnut to know it's sweet," or be tortured to know it's painful.
Crazy we really about to do this again
Hi Centane. You might already know or someone else already mentioned it but I wanted you to know Leckie an Sledge wrote the books this series is written from.
You could let new audiences experience the story for the first time without telling them the end of the story really. Sometimes watching a story “blind”, so to speak, is best.
Lucky's feet, Blisters, and or Jungle rot blisters from crappy fitting boots, jungle rot from wearing boots continuously for months, essentially it's a severe fungal infection
The is something I want to say but can't yet because of spoilers. Will have to wait until you reach the final episode
This episode is interesting, the whole series is. Hope this isn't much of a spoiler but the idea of the first two episode being violent/hard to watch. Everything after the 4th is going to be interesting and a bit more violent then Band of Brothers, I believe.
Oh, there was some action all right. My boy Leckie ain't shooting blanks!
Wish I got a chance to go to Australia when I was in the Marines. Japan was pretty great though.
I hate that question. "Did you kill anybody? How many people did you kill?" Enough to make it home to hear you ask me stupid questions.
The quiet before the storm 😝
The calm before the storm
You need to read the books these men wrote.
You definitely live a deferent life when your families at war. It’s not easy. You seem like a very sweet person🙏🏼 I hope you’re having a wonderful day
Look up the Battle of Brisbane if you want to know why the Australian Infantry disliked Americans
Momma is adorable
Have you had an opportunity to use ”a wait before they reload” yet? 😂 And I just mean any opportunity , not something very private.
LOL not yet!!
Momma is a darling.
i love your channel!
It's not love if Stella dumps Bob because she is afraid he is going to get hurt in the war, so Bob is well of her.
Thanks babe! Very nice
Have you seen Oliver Stone’s “Platoon” great movie to do an reaction on.. Do try it out!! Keep me 😭 watching movies! You touch my heart
Hey Kamilla, quiet is fine because you're at least listening to the show. You don't need to say sorry all the time you're not Canadian ;).
haha. Canadian!
Okay Centane?, If that's your name, I will check out your mixe's from a English guy.
Episode 5 it starts getting very very rough
Reload and watch another
12:39 Cute....
You're a nurse and you didn't recognize blisters?
in my full reaction u can hear I say its blisters, but as they used a knife, then I wasn't sure and cut it out in case I was wrong.
I'm not a nurse either ☺️
@@Centane My mistake then. I thought you were. I'm sorry.
You look very cuddlable ☺️
I'll have to put a watch later tag on this video and maybe see in a couple weeks... Can't focus on anything except the Russian invasion of Ukraine right now. Dark times for everybody in Europe.

All _Leckie_ had to do was tell _Stella_ that part of what they are experiencing has been based on his book, and that he isn't planning to write it until after the war's over anyway. _Easy peasy, lemon squeazy._
Your voice may be quiet but your face and your eyes are shouting half the time. Some of us look beyond what you say and look at you the human being.
Australia has lovely ladies, but no more than you
If a Doctor ever tells you you can't have children don't believe him. My daughter came home crying her eyes out about 20 years ago. The doctor told her she could never have children. My daughter now has four children. Trust me doctors don't know as much as they think they do. I told her she should sue the doctor for child support.
Trench foot is what they were treating with a knife.
Not trench foot. Blisters from having new boots, not broke in. Trench foot is from having wet feet and not being able to dry them. WW1 trenches. Joe in B. O. B when Doc Roe tells him to put his socks around his neck to dry them.
@@brianplyter2225 OK, I stand corrected!
