    9.4/10, Amazing

    This was definitely an amazing episode. I have not seen an episode so far that was a 9.1 or lower for me personally. My favorite character in this episode was Webster. My favorite things about this episode were the storyline, the action, and the ending. I have yet to watch the finale. I am watching this whole series with my mom, and we just watched this episode and the next one. I honestly think this episode should be way higher rated, because this was a great episode. Again, this series is definitely a must-watch, because it's short and amazing at the same exact time. Definitely watch it if you ran out of things to watch.

    Heartbreaking!

    This episode really touched my heart when the soldiers went on the patrol and returned with one injured soldier. His screams of the injury that was caused by a small mistake is so painful.

    the big finale is about to come

    Good as previous episodes.. thoughts and feelings seem to get even more and more room in the past few episodes (which is understandable.. the war must already be extremely exhausting).. A grand finale can be smelled in the air...

    Not a combat heavy episode but focuses on a mission and rookies of war

    Greetings from Lithuania.

    "The Last Patrol", an eight episode of "Band of Brothers" was superb, as always. This one tells a story of 15 men trying to secure POW from German side and their patrol mission. "The Last Patrol" isn't as combat heavy as previous episode, but nevertheless provided a combat sequence, and a heartbreaking death. Again and again this show reminds and shows a price that was paid by lives of young men who fought this war. As the narrator puts it, there is life happening back home, but here is all about the survivor and doing your duty.

    Overall, i highly enjoyed "The Last Patrol". With only few episodes left I'm all in for it.

      Lieutenant Jones went on to be transferred to the 508th and a year later to the 970th C.I.C. attachment as a field commander. He was injured in a jeep wreck in Heidelberg, Germany, and although he recovered from the wreck, he later died from complications due to surgery. He died on July 21, 1947 at the age of 23.
    • Goofs
      In his voiceover narration, David Webster mentions that he had been with Easy Company since its formation, but this is not true. While he had been with the REGIMENT since its formation, he originally trained, and jumped into Normandy on D-Day, with Headquarters Company. It was not until after D-Day that he transferred, upon his own request, to Easy, with whom he would remain until the end of the war.
