The one episode of BOB that I'd be interested in knowing the full truth of is the episode where Winters blows off his commnding officers order to lead another patrol across the river. It must have happened more or less like that.
Thats good old American common sense in action there. A lesser man would have been afraid to disobey the order. But Winters saw the lack of a need for the patrol at the ground zero macro level and did the common sense thing probably at some risk had his superiors found him out at the time.
