Starring: Ron Livingston, Damian Lewis, Scott Grimes, Matthew Leitch, Shane Taylor
Continuity mistake: Winters is helping the men to their feet to board the plane. The first person he helps up is shown from the back, so we can't see who it is. The next shot shows that person boarding the plane as Winters helps others to their feet. The person in this shot is Joe Toye. Then the scene switches back to Winters helping up the rest of the men one by one, so we can see their faces. The third person we see in this progression is Joe Toye again. (01:04:23)
Richard Winters: That night, I thanked God for seeing me through that day of days and prayed I would make it through D plus 1. I also promised that if some way I could get home again, I would find a nice peaceful town and spend the rest of my life in peace.
Crossroads - S1-E5
Trivia: In the scene where the Red Devils toast the 101st Airborne, when the camera shows the assembled soldiers you'll see Tom Hanks as one of the Red Devils in a beret at the back left (5 or 6 men in) with his right hand on his hip. His head moves forwards to become obscured behind another soldier. (00:30:30)

Question: How exactly do the M1 Garands work? I noticed that after the clip is emptied a metal type plate comes out the top of the rifle, what is that?

Answer: That actually is the clip. It is loaded into the top of the rifle, and is ejected with the last round. See http://www.wwiitech.net/main/usa/weapons/m1/.
