Easy faces harsh winter conditions in the Ardennes, running dangerously low on ammunition, food, and medical supplies. Combat medic Eugene "Doc" Roe helps his fellow soldiers where he can, while also scrounging for medical supplies. He befriends a Belgian nurse named Renée; she is later killed in a bombing raid. Easy and other American units are surrounded, but General McAuliffe, their commander, rejects a German demand to surrender with the reply "Nuts!"

Several claim the honor, compounded by confusion with the town of Berchtesgaden, which was taken on May 4 by forward elements of the 7th Infantry Regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division. [37] [38] [note 3] Reputedly members of the 7th went as far as the elevator to the Kehlsteinhaus, [37] with at least one individual claiming he and a partner continued on to the top. [41] However, the 101st Airborne maintains it was first both to Berchtesgaden and the Kehlsteinhaus. [42] [ failed verification] Elements of the French 2nd Armored Division, Laurent Touyeras, Georges Buis and Paul Répiton-Préneuf, were present on the night of May 4 to 5, and took several photographs before leaving on May 10 at the request of US command, [43] [44] and this is supported by testimonies of the Spanish soldiers who went along with them. In Haguenau, Easy adjusts to leaving the combat zone and gives a cold welcome to Private David Webster, who did not break out of the hospital to rejoin the company like others; and new replacement Second Lieutenant Henry Jones, fresh from West Point. Jones and Webster participate in a night raid across the river to get prisoners for interrogation, which gains them some respect. Winters is promoted to major, Lipton's commission becomes official, and Jones is promoted to first lieutenant and transferred to the regimental staff.

The Sergeant Grant Band of Brothers incident is one that might seem too strange to be true but is based on fact. In Band of Brothers' final episode takes place as World War II is ending and Easy Company's men are waiting to either be relieved of active duty or shipped out to the Pacific front. Though the fighting had stopped, men still died from other causes, such as PFC John Kanovec dying in a car accident. One such deadly incident was a shooting by "I" Company replacement Private Floyd W. Craver.Eisenhower, Dwight D. (1948). Crusade in Europe. New York: Doubleday. p. 418.
