I had to go back and remember who Webster was! CHECK✔️ 

Sometimes I get the men confused! A lot to keep track of in the mayhem! But, a little bit of a reprieve episode! I’ve heard Epi 9 is hard so I’m buckling up! Thanks for being here!!!

Correction: I reviewed my Webster book and, actually, Webster was worried the Germans might recover their wounded man at the river, and he could reveal which nearby building they were in, so he and another guy threw two grenades each at the German but missed. Cobb came out and threw one grenade that killed the man.

What about Private Roy Cobb? Ambrose describes him as invariably good-natured, but the series shows him unfriendly, bitter and, maybe, a little cowardly. He was older than most of the men, about 30, and had been in the Army nine years. He was also a combat veteran, as he had landed in North Africa with the 1st Armored Division, signed up for the paratroops, and survived his troopship being torpedoed on the way back to the U.S. He is wounded in the plane on D-Day, and returned to England. He fights in Holland and Bastogne. In Hagenau, on the patrol led by Lt. Jack Foley, he and two others are dumped in the icy river, and sent back by Foley. In the episode, he mouths off to Webster, Lt. Jones and Sgt. Martin. He is full of Schnapps. But in reality, and I think more dramatic, he is yelled at by Lt. Foley, and Cobb assaults him; it takes two men to restrain Cobb, AND Johnny Martin has to pull his .45 pistol and point it in Cobb's face. In an Easter egg at the end of the episode, you see Cobb leave Hagenau in a jeep with 4 M.P.'s. Cobb is court-martialled, dishonorably discharged, and Colonel Sink told Lt. Foley, "You could have saved us a lot of trouble...you should have SHOT the S.O.B."...So, how accurate or nuanced is Cobb's depiction? I just can't decide, but... I find it "curiouser and curiouser" that Cobb, in the Army foe over 9 years, combat veteran, is NEVER promoted by anyone to a higher grade other than private.
