b4 they pound ya with Bs emoticons and sarcasm BS, let me just say that at the end of Band of Brothers and at the beggining of each episode, they showed the vets from ez company describing the war and its enviroment. So what you saw on HBO was more than likely a compilation of them from their taped statements.
mad: away...

Yes, they filmed a lengthy interview with some of the survivors from Easy Company. At the beginning and end of each episode the filmakers edited in parts of that interview. If you buy the DVD box set, you can watch the whole special, which was originally shown on HBO after the first airing of the series.

It was probably just "We Stand Alone Together", the documentary they put on the DVD set.
Great stuff.
