"Women don't belong in war" was something Margot Kessler and Antonia Winslow heard day in and day out, but never once did they let those words deter them from serving their country alongside the men. They were unbelievably strong and skilled beyond any shadow of a doubt; they were the sisters in a band of brothers.All Rights Reserved

All Things Nice » Band of Brothers by starcrossed-

"What are little girls made of?" Cutting off all of her hair, faking a medical examination, and signing up for the paratroopers aren't feats that were necessarily easy to achieve. They also weren't done out of a desire to prove oneself, or to demonstrate that women could do more than keep the home fires burning, or even an ambition to experience combat. They were done out of desperation. On the wrong side of the pond and desperate to get home, as soon as Posey discovers that the fastest way back to Europe is via troopship her decision is made. Now all she has to do is make it through basic training. That, and make sure no one finds out. She supposes she'll find out what little girls are really made of in the process.

Bloody Mary | Band of Brothers by c4ptainlex

In the shadows of war, where bravery is forged in silence and sacrifices go unnoticed, this follows the story of Private Evelyn Donovan, a female soldier embedded within the centre Easy Company during World War II. As the world erupts into chaos, Evelyn and a select group of women are tasked with a covert mission-to serve as both soldiers and spies, gathering intelligence and executing secretive operations that could change the course of the war. The men of Easy Company know these women as fellow soldiers, but the truth of their dual identities remains shrouded in secrecy. As they march through the European theater, from Normandy to Bastogne, Evelyn forms unlikely bonds with her fellow soldiers, connections that later become both her anchor and her torment. Through intense battles, covert missions, and the relentless push toward victory, Evelyn navigates the treacherous path of war while concealing her true role.

Half Sick of Shadows » Band of Brothers [2] by starcrossed-

Juliette Chevalier and her team have been sitting on a huge secret. A secret they never thought would come out. But when circumstances permit for their identities to be revealed, they find themselves hidden in amongst Easy Company, a company of American paratroopers about to make their first jump into combat. But whilst the Americans are making their debut behind enemy lines, Juliette has been operating undercover for far too long. Her time, it seems, has very much run out; her story has an ending and she knows very well what it is. Remembering has always been painful, but retelling her story in such vivid detail is inevitably much, much worse. [Sequel to 'Shadows of the World'] (Based on the TV show character portrayals.

Fight to Forget (Sunstreaker x OC) by UnderAfallingSkyR3D

Two years after surviving the fight of her life, Medal of Honor recipient Melissa Smith comes home a decorated war hero, with commendations and medals attesting to her bravery and skill. To the higher ups, honorable discharge and full military benefits must seem like fitting repayment for the hero who repeatedly put herself in the line of fire to provide cover for her platoon, right? Wrong. Melissa doesn't know how to be a civilian, but apparently she can't be a soldier, either. A recent psych evaluation left her commanding officers no choice but to offer her an out after she froze under fire and nearly got her entire team killed. Her choice? Go home, or risk disgracing herself and the uniform. But that only left her alone with the demons in her head. Facing life outside the military is hard enough, but what will happen when a remnant of the best and worst moment of her life turns out to be more than meets the eye? Will she trust the angry yellow autobot assigned to protect her from Earth's most dangerous enemy, or will she put a bullet through his optic with all the deadly efficiency that earned her a name in Iraq? Trigger warnings: PTSD, depression, mentions of trauma, canon typical violence, adult language

The Light In The Dark. by MoonysWitch

In the year 1942 the US army officials opened up ot the public about a new regiment within the army, the paratroopers, they were said to be the men who would be dropped behind enemy lines from a plane and only the bravest men would sign up to take part in this new effort to end the war. What the governemnt and army officials kept quiet was that selected women, mostly women who were classed as intelligent, had been selected to train in different ares to assist on the frontlines. No word would get out to public as they knew it would be widely looked down upon, the women would train in private before being shipped out to where they would fight. Judith Moore was one of the selected women, along with three other women who she found to befriend through their training together as they trained to become paratroopers. Judith hoped to make a huge impact on the lives of those who fought in the war, hoping to be somewhat a light in their dark.

Landslide - Band of Brothers by wexhappyxfew

Piano keys were her childhood, but the grasp of a pistol was her reality. Polish SOE Agent, Natia Filipska, has lurked among the rubble and the shadows of her occupied-Warsaw for years, ever since the war started and ripped her from the life that had guaranteed happiness and opportunity. The SOE took her in, as well as her two siblings, Klimeck and Ryzshard, arming them with a fighting spirit, and a chance at survival, at a life where they could avenge the ones that were taken. Being apart of the Cichociemni came next, Elite Polish Paratroopers, and it was their ticket home. Ever since her feet had then touched the ground, she had been fighting with her home and her people - the Polish Home Army. The Warsaw Uprising got her captured, and then being on the run nearly got her killed - her only ally was the pistol at her side. The Dutch Resistance of Eindhoven, Holland housed her, but it would never be her home. Upon liberation though, her path crossed with an Airborne Infantry - the 101st Airborne Division - the Screaming Eagles - American men. To ensure her safety back to Warsaw, Poland and her family, Easy Company and their men might be her only hope. But hope was lost long ago. ------------------------- " Well, I've been 'fraid of changin' 'Cause I've built my life around you But time makes you bolder Even children get older And I'm gettin' older, too...." - Landslide, Fleetwood Mac ---------- mature themes are held within the context of this story that may be triggering to some people: death, smoking, alcohol, killings, and severe depression, along with mental health issues. --------- band of brothers + oc's { October 2nd 2020 } UPDATES BEGIN - Fridays starting 10 - 2 - 20 started: 7/4/20 ended: n/a ------------------------ NEW COVER!!! done by ME!!! credits on words by @swedeandspicy
