The Marine Corps WAS Tommy’s family. Manny, his platoon that he watched die.. Those guys he saved from drowning in an over-turned tank. Those were the brothers who replaced Brendan. THAT was HIS family.
Semper Fidelus. Always faithful.
And I know the movie is about the Army, but they aren’t called a “band of brothers” for nothing.

Don’t get me started on Brendan fighting for family either. HIS FAMILY WAS IN TACT. Healthy, happy.. alive. He was just too fucking bull-headed Irish to listen to his wife who wanted to downsize as long as they had each other, or the bank when they offered bankruptcy.
I wasn’t crazy over the tagline, either, but less for its inadequate representation and more with its cliche, rah-rah...
