Band of Brothers	comment	If you were looking for the 2001 HBO TV series click here. A Band of Brothers (who are usually, but not Always Male) is a group of people, dedicated and loyal to each other beyond all other considerations, due to the dangerous (often combat-related) circumstances they have faced together. The spilling of their blood, mixed together with a desperate life-or-death struggle, make them a family as close as any, though most Bands of Brothers will not actually be blood-related. Beyond mere comradeship, being a Band of Brothers evokes an ideal of grim determination to face whatever comes together, and to see it through together. It is in this shared struggle that they become a Band of Brothers. Members of the Band of Brothers know that they can depend upon each other. Their relationship is often deeper than mere friendship. After one helps another in danger, gratitude is often dismissed with Think Nothing of It because "You would have done it for me." A similar concept is esprit de corps. The individual members of the group might not even actually like each other all that much, and may spend a lot of their time deriding and insulting each other... but those activities are strictly kept within the borders of the brotherhood. An outsider who insults a single member of the group will find himself opposed by all members of the group, including several who had but recently been tossing insults themselves. A Band Of Brothers is often formed after a Misfit Mobilization Moment. They are equally often a Badass Crew. See also The Power of Friendship, Sworn Brothers, A Friend in Need, Fire-Forged Friends. Sometimes explains why the Mildly Military organization manages to remain efficient despite its apparent lack of regard for discipline and normal military procedure. See True Companions for the wider, non-militaristic concept.

They were founded by Knight Artorias himself to guard against the horrors of the Abyss, and they all use a replica of his sword in remembrance of the fallen Knight. When they were called upon to Link the First Flame and prolong the Age of Fire, they didn't just send one of their number down to do so; they went down into the Kiln as one and all burned together. Unfortunately, their time spent as fuel for the First Flame drove some of them mad, and by the events of the game these once proud warriors are busy tearing each other to pieces.

He truly loves them all and has not a single cruel word for any of them. When told that his youngest (genetic) brother has found a girl and wants out, he is completely supportive. And if you're not his brother, you're liable to get shot, knifed, kicked to death, robbed, or possibly raped.

Band of Brothers / int_5755b96a	comment	The Order of the Stick: The rest of the team saves Belkar from being killed by Miko, even though they hate him. Yes, they hate Belkar, but they hate Miko more, and Belkar's still a member of their team. They also keep him in the group to lessen the amount of damage he can do. The exact words Vaarsuvius says when saving Belkar from Miko are, "Belkar is a horrible, loathsome, supremely selfish creature who behaves contemptibly, laughs at the pain of others, has no manners whatsoever, and whose mental acuity would be compared unfavorably to that of a table. And yet I find I still prefer him to you." This works as a "The Reason You Suck" Speech for both Miko and Belkar at once. Belkar hates his companions as much as they hate him. But does he even slow down when it comes to killing lots of people in order to save Haley from execution? Of course not... However, Belkar is a Heroic Comedic Sociopath, so part of it might be that he just likes killing people. When Elan gets captured, they all go to rescue him, even though his stupidity has gotten them in trouble often. Roy at first refuses to but then realizes how horrible it would be to abandon Elan. It's later mentioned that if he hadn't changed his mind, he would have gone straight from Lawful Good to True Neutral. Note that this decision wasn't so much based around the concept of a Band Of Brothers, but Roy realizing that Elan is an innocent and the kind of person he should be trying to protect, even if he is annoying.

Band of Brothers / int_605dd875	comment	Stargate-verse: The Stargate Atlantis crew captures the Band of Brothers spirit perfectly with their "We don't leave our people behind" refrain. Which was a catchphrase at the SGC earlier (see the episode "Abyss" for a perfect example of how far this can be taken and understood). The members of the team become each other's best friends, confidants, and essentially nothing will cause more angst than when one is in trouble, wounded, or presumed dead. Stargate SG-1 epitomizes the Band of Brothers trope. Major Carter even says to one of the other characters, "We were a team. No one can even begin to understand what that really means." And calls Daniel's death(presumed)/ascension one of the worst things she's ever been through. And, let's face it, she's been through a lot.

Band of Brothers / int_60878253	comment	The Last Days of Foxhound: The Foxhound unit from this Metal Gear Solid fancomic is a highly dysfunctional covert ops group that, in the earlier parts of the comic, all more or less hated each other. (Particularly with members Psycho Mantis and Revolver Ocelot, who do everything from exchanging put-downs to fighting deathmatches, and in one case Mantis only avoids being poisoned by Ocelot by sheer luck.) Of course, later on, the group (well, aside from Mantis and Ocelot) does seem to be getting closer to each other to the point that the entire group risks causing, (or at least not preventing) an international incident just to save Sniper Wolf. And when Liquid discusses the idea with the ghost of the Sorrow, the latter mentions how the Cobra unit were closer than family, with them all considering the Boss to be a mother figure, in spite of her being the youngest of them. This leaves Liquid slightly squicked out as he notes the fact that the Sorrow and the Boss were lovers.

Being a paramilitary special unit of the Ministry of the Interior in a mostly failed state, they regularly get into conflict with other government institutions, as well as terrorists and organized crime. Togusa and Aramaki seem to be the only ones who still maintain normal lives next to their job, while the others seem to be almost completely isolated from the rest of society.

Band of Brothers / int_70814599	comment	Which was a catchphrase at the SGC earlier (see the episode "Abyss" for a perfect example of how far this can be taken and understood). The members of the team become each other's best friends, confidants, and essentially nothing will cause more angst than when one is in trouble, wounded, or presumed dead. Stargate SG-1 epitomizes the Band of Brothers trope. Major Carter even says to one of the other characters, "We were a team. No one can even begin to understand what that really means." And calls Daniel's death(presumed)/ascension one of the worst things she's ever been through. And, let's face it, she's been through a lot.

A. and Murdock, to Face and Murdock's Odd Friendship (really, how can a suave con man and a crazy pilot be best friends? Just ask Face and Murdock), you can tell they're more like a family than just a team of ex-military acquaintances. For instance, in the Season 2 finale, when Murdock gets shot in the chest during a job in the middle of nowhere, they pull out all the stops and even face possible capture by the military in order to save him.

It's made explicit by the big fight scene at the end when Speckles realizes that he doesn't need to avenge his family; he's already got one in the form of G-Force, Ben and Marcy, and possibly Hurley, too. Darwin actually references this during the original sneak-in to Saber's house; "We leave no rodent behind."

Band of Brothers / int_9f3bc7e3	comment	Evan Wright's book Generation Kill, an account of the USMC's First Force Recon in the 2003 invasion of Iraq, showed a rather striking scene where a group of Marines were under heavy fire in a field, and were laughing and joking. When asked why they were in such a good mood, the answer was that the Marines were surrounded by their closest friends and combat brothers; if they died in combat, they would die right alongside their best friends. The HBO adaptation of Generation Kill has an interesting subversion. The Marines are every bit the Band Of Brothers you'd expect them to be, but they also quickly adopt their embedded reporter, Evan Wright, as one of their own instead of turning him into a Butt-Monkey. In the novel (discussed below), Wright is self-conscious of this process in a way that might pass for Casual Danger Dialogue, noting that he realized the Marines were starting to like him when they began poking him with their combat knives, among other forms of hazing. Wright credits four things with Force Recon's acceptance of him: That he had written for several of the Marines' favourite publications (Most notably Hustler), that he managed to stay cool the first time he came under fire, that he actually volunteered to stay after coming under fire instead of wimping out as the previous embedded reporters had, and that he knew he was the designated Butt-Monkey and wasn't afraid to poke fun at himself when he screwed up.

Band of Brothers / int_b4501394	comment	Illustrated in Left 4 Dead 2. When the game starts out, Four strangers have gathered on the roof of a Savannah hotel just as the last evac copter flies off. Five levels later, they are bound by blood, bile, and a few other unrecognizable fluids. Also in the Sacrifice Comic, when it looks like our heroes are done for, Louis announces "I love you guys". Then Bill runs off to restart the generator and shouts, "Take care of each other, you guys are the only family I've got left!" Bill's dying lines in the video game have a similar effect.

Band of Brothers / int_b962c879	comment	The various teams in the Fairy Tail guild like Shadow Gear and the Raijinshuu are already True Companions and the guild is pretty much a very large set of True Companions bordering on a Band Of Brothers due to sheer size and the often dangerous nature of their jobs. The best example however is the Guild Alliance formed to combat Oracion Seis. Long after the dark guild was defeated, the members from Blue Pegasus, Lamia Scale, and Cait Shelter join or are on very good terms with Fairy Tail. When Fairy Tail was in need, they immediately came to their aid spending much time and effort to locate the missing Tenrou Island. When the core cast came back after the time skip, members of both guilds quickly pay them a visit to renew old friendships.

In the case of the latter, there is at least one instance of one of the Substitutes turning down an invitation to join the Legion proper out of loyalty to the other Subs. The Death of Lightning Lad: When Lightning Lad dies, the Legion scour the galaxy to find a way to revive him. When they find a method that requires someone sacrificing their life to give it to Garth, six Legionnaires volunteer. Several years later, during The Lightning Saga, Superman is telling the story to the Justice League and Justice Society, who are appalled at teen kids risking their lives like that. Superman replies any Legionnaire would readily give their life for any teammate.

Band of Brothers / int_c0d295c4	comment	The mercenaries of Team Fortress 2 are Sociopathic Heroes at best, but that doesn't stop them from working together like a well-oiled machine of death who are quick to genuinely thank and complement each other for a job well done. Meta-game wise, playing several rounds together can also transform a group of players who don't know each other (and aren't Griefers) into a (temporary) Band of Brothers. Furthermore, the game encourages players to assist one another by various methods: On most servers, you can earn points by assisting in a kill, putting out a burning teammate, and unleashing an Ubercharge in addition to killing enemies and achieving map objectives. Most of the Medic's achievements are accomplished by helping other classes. One even involves healing someone while they get an achievement. The Soldier can earn an achievement for using the Buff Banner on his Steam friends called "Banner of Brothers". (The Spy, on the other hand, gets an achievement for backstabbing his Steam friends...) A significant portion of the Engineer's achievements involve co-operating with other Engineers for the greater good of his team.

The four old men of the team (Hawkman, Wildcat, Flash I, and Green Lantern I) have all lost children or otherwise had problems being fathers, as elaborated upon in the "Princes of Darkness" arc. Many other characters have parental issues, such as Jesse Quick/Liberty Belle II (dead father), Hourman III (absentee father returned from the dead), Stargirl (stepfather is crimefighting partner, father is a dead criminal), and Damage (son of the original Atom, created by Vandal Savage). Ma Hunkel, the original Red Tornado, is the maternal glue keeping the team together.

This is especially true of the "Original Five": Robin (Dick), Wonder Girl (Donna), Kid Flash (Wally), Speedy (Roy), and Aqualad (Garth). This was carried over in the cartoon. In fact, Nightwing and Arsenal's Outsiders were formed in a deliberate attempt to avoid creating a Band Of Brothers. Naturally, given the characters and the circumstances, they failed. Another group of Titans who were closer to each other than they were to their own families were the "Core Four" of Young Justice, who joined the Titans after their previous team disbanded: Robin (Tim), Impulse (Bart), Superboy (Kon) and Wonder Girl (Cassie).

Even Simon Tam and Jayne Cobb, who hate each other, have saved the life of the other at least. Not to mention this exchange after Mal and crew save River from being burned at the stake in the Big Damn Heroes moment that named that trope: Even better: Mal himself proved how violently protective of his crew he could be near the end of "Ariel", when confronting Jayne and preparing to throw him out the airlock for Jayne ratting out River and Simon. In turn, the rest of the crew showed their own unblinking loyalty to Mal in "War Stories", when even Simon and Kaylee took up arms to save him. "Ariel" also has Simon going off to save a dying man, risking capture and leaving River in Jayne's care — which he probably wouldn't have done if he didn't actually trust Jayne to get River to safety should anything happen to him. One can't help but wonder how the extent of Simon's trust factored in Jayne's decision to save the Tams instead of simply making a run for it at the first opportune moment.

Lord Grantham is intensely protective of Bates, keeping him on as his valet even though his leg injury makes it harder than usual for him to do a valet's job, backing him up on the occasions that downstairs spats reached his attention, and, most vitally, allowing Bates to use the Crawley family lawyer Mr Murray after he is accused and convicted of Mrs Bates' murder. He also hires Bates back as valet when he is released without thinking twice. For his part, Bates tries his best to serve as Lord Grantham's eyes and ears downstairs. No doubt the both of them have other such friends from the Regiment,note Especially considering that the Guards units are noted for being especially close-knit but we never see them.

Band of Brothers / int_fe08cb30	comment	The Punisher (2017): Frank Castle, Billy Russo, and Curtis Hoyle were best buddies when they served together in Afghanistan, although this fractures after Russo turns out to be in league with the people who killed Frank's family. In Season 2, there is a villainous example, with Billy starting a gang of fellow veterans who commit criminal, brutal acts, but are still utterly dedicated to each other.

Band of Brothers / int_ff9ab17f	comment	Star Trek: The Next Generation had a bit of this going on, particularly during the first season, before the characters had worked each other out. Riker was uneasy about their second officer, Picard had to tell people not to let him "make an ass of himself" around children (and shouted Wesley out in the very first episode, thus enraging Wesley's mother with whom Picard already had an uneasy relationship), Worf disliked everyone (but especially Data), and Troi and Riker had Uncomfortable Ex's syndrome. But within a matter of episodes (and fairly ridiculous episodes at that), it became obvious that they'd all pretty much die for each other.
