Ben Prater Firefighter strike, Band of Brothers and the Great Burbage Bake Off Band of Brothers Tour

This Autumn it's 70 years since the so called Band of Brothers arrived in Wiltshire. The efforts of Easy Company who were part of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, were chronicled by author and historian Stephen E Ambrose in a book and later adapted for TV by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg. All this week, Ben Prater tours the county in a US army command car searching for the real stories of Easy Company and all the other American units that once called Wiltshire home.
