Happy 96th Birthday!


To celebrate our favorite war-torn Southern belle, one Eugene Bondurant* Sledge, feel free to share your favorite show moments, quotes, GIFs, fan works, or spin some prompts in the comments on this post! If none of those things are quite your celebratory style, I also welcome unintelligible, delighted flailing and pretty much any other form of respectful self-expression.

*I am never letting anyone forget that his middle name is BONDURANT and I'm not sorry.

Happy 103rd Birthday!


To celebrate our favorite Italian son gone too soon, one John Francis Basilone, feel free to share your favorite show moments, quotes, GIFs, fan works, or spin some prompts in the comments on this post! If none of those things are quite your celebratory style, I also welcome unintelligible, delighted flailing and pretty much any other form of respectful self-expression.

I'ma be honest, y'all, I almost forgot entirely about this one. If I hadn't been working on a birthday list already? Never woulda happened.

I discovered earlier today that it was Sledge's birthday (and Basilone's, much to my shame), which merited some sort of celebration. In my discussion of said celebration with muccamukk I realized that it would probably make sense to provide a list of The Pacific boys' birthdays and heights, since a bunch of us already threw together the same lists for the men of Easy Company, which you can find here.

And lo, we have done so. Thank you Mucca for your help.

Here are all the TP boys' heights and birthdays for anyone who needs them:
