Major Richard D. Winters (January 21, 1918 - January 2, 2011)[
On the 2nd, Major Dick Winters 506th Regiment, 101st Division, E Company passed away. Dick Winters was a man immortilized on camera in the filming of Band Of Brothers both in interview and as portrayed by his actor.
He was a true hero not just on the screen but off in his life and job at Nixon Nitration works.
He saw hell on earth not once, but 4 times. He parachuted into Normandy in the first wave of attack the night before D-Day, and fought for weeks and lead a 6 man attack on 4 german 105mm Howitzer and 30 nazi soldiers. Hit attack was perfect and is still taught at West Point today on the proper way to ambush a fixed position.
He fought in Bastogne at the Battle of the Bulge when his entire divison was surrounded by Nazi SS soldiers in the freezing cold of the Arden Forest with no winter clothes.
He fought in holland in Operation Market Garden, quite easily Americas worst airborne loss in World War 2.
He also went into Austria and his unit captured Hitlers Eagles Nest.
He is a man worth you knowing who he was. He earned both of his two combat stars over his jump wings and the purple heart.
A wounded soldier Floyd Talbert wrote to Winters in 1945 from his own hospital bed,
"You are loved and will never be forgotten by any soldier that ever served under you,...I would follow you into hell."
