my favorite part in the interviews is when he talks about a question his grandson asked him

"Grandpa, were you a hero in the war?"

"Grandpa said no........but I served in a company of Heroes..."

can't say it any better than that

Very sad. I've read a bunch of his books and course more about Easy Company.

What's sad is that there are thousands of men like Winters who never so much as got a thank you from us for their outstanding service. Kudos to all of them. RIP Major Winters.
