Band of Brothers and the Berchtesgaden Myth

Band of Brothers, a tremendous book by Stephen Ambrose which turned into a great mini-series by HBO contains an error. As John McManus points out in his excellent blog posting, there is an error regarding Easy Company being the first unit to arrive at Berchtesgaden, home of Hitler's mountain top retreat. Read his blog entry to learn who really arrived first and how historians are trying to correct this erroneous mistake!
