Richard "Dick" D. Winters, Major, U.S. Army (ret.), Company E (Easy), 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division
Winters, 2004 I just found out that Dick died earlier this year (January 21, 1918 – January 2, 2011). He was just 19 days shy of his 93rd birthday. He was the last survivor of "Easy" Company, the "Band of Brothers".
Winters, Somewhere in Europe, WWII
Please take a moment to honor his memory.
"I cherish the memories of a question my grandson asked me the other day when he said, 'Grandpa, were you a hero in the war?' Grandpa said 'No… but I served in a company of heroes.'" Richard Winters

Actually that book is in my Kindle at the moment awaiting reading.
If you click the link you can view all 10 episodes of the mini-series "Band of Brothers." :)
I have a thing for a man in uniform, especially a hero!
Hope you're well and staying out of trouble Wil! ;-)
