Major Dick Winters has passed
If you’ve read or watched “Band of Brothers” you’re familiar with the name Dick Winters. Zedechek sends news that Major Winters has passed. This link is to the news on the forum named for him and this from PennLive.
The line I’ll always remember from the interviews at the end of the movie is when his grandson asked him if he was a hero he said “No, but I served in a company with heroes”. I’ve always been grateful for the legacy that men like Dick Winters left for my generation of soldiers, and we’ll ALL always be indebted for what did for us.
Keep your feet and knees together, Major.
