Easy Company fights in the Battle of Carentan in which they lose several men. Rumours circulate that Lt Speirs killed a group of German POWs. Pvt Albert Blithe is spurred into action by Winters during the Battle of Bloody Gulch but killed days later by a German sniper.

Easy Company experiences the Battle of the Bulge, having to hold ground near Bastogne while running low on ammunition and supplies. Medic Eugene "Doc" Roe helps out his fellow soldiers where he can, whilst also scrounging for medical supplies which are dangerously low.
