A former US Marine and decorated Vietnam veteran, Dale Dye got his acting breakthrough in the 1986 movie Platoon, drawing on his own battlefield experience for authenticity. In Band of Brothers, he once again brought that realism to the screen as Colonel Robert Sink, the commanding officer of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment. Dye also served as the show's military technical advisor.

In fact, aside from acting, Dye has forged a formidable career as Hollywood’s go-to military consultant. Through his company Warriors Inc, he has trained legions of actors and advised on countless productions, including Saving Private Ryan, The Pacific, and Masters of the Air.
