If you saw the Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks World War II miniseries Band of Brothers, then you might be excited to learn that there's a whole documentary about the 101st battalion - otherwise known as Dick Winters Easy Company - called Uncovering the Band of Brothers coming to History Hit, a streamer started by British popular historian and television presenter Dan Snow.

As part of the new documentary, it was revealed that archaeologist Richard Osgood, and a team of veterans from Nightingale and Aldbourne Heritage Centre, found dog tags belonging to soldiers from the 101st battalion in the UK after digging at Aldbourne, Wiltshire.

The tags found belonged to Richard A Blake and Carl Fenstermaker, and were discovered 78 years after D-Day and two decades after the release of the original 2001 HBO epic series.

When speaking about why he wanted to make a documentary on the history behind the Easy Company, Snow said:

"World War Two is an incredibly important and emotive period in history and it's only right we shed light on those who gave up their lives to protect their own and other countries. As we celebrate 78 years since D-Day, I'm proud we have found further soldiers from within the Band of Brothers who deserve recognition."

In addition to releasing Uncovering the Band of Brothers on History Hit, Snow also plans on releasing an accompanying podcast.

Currently, the documentary's release date is unknown.
