Just watch the Blithe episode. That was something Ambrose got wrong and corrected in later editions of the book the series was based on.

Blithe didn't die a few years after the war. He was discharged in '45, lived and worked in Philly, then reenlisted in '49, and serving in Korea where he received a Bronze Star and Silver Star, Taiwan, and Germany. He was still in the army when he fell ill at a ceremony in Bastogne and died after an operation for a perforated ulcer in '67.

None of that takes away what was an outstanding book and series.

Must watch on Memorial Day. Major Winters sets the record straight about AB starting at the 10-min mark:
