In the dead of winter, in the forest outside of Bastogne, Belgium, the men of Easy Company struggle to hold the line alone while fending off frostbite and hunger, having arrived with no winter clothes and little supplies and ammunition. Medic Eugene Roe is overwhelmed, on edge and close to combat exhaustion when he finds friendship with a Belgian nurse.

The Breaking Point
Having thwarted the Germans at Bastogne, the exhausted Easy Co. must now take the nearby town of Foy from the enemy.

While successful, the mission costs another paratrooper's life, prompting Winters to ignore the order to send a second patrol the next night.

Why We Fight
Easy Co. finally enters Germany, to surprisingly little resistance, and has a chance to relax for the first time in a long time.

A closing vignette tells what happened to the men of Easy Company after they returned home.
