Dick Winters has passed away
Gents,
I am sad to say that the Patriot News in Harrisburg Pa has reported that Dick Winters from Easy Company 101ST Fame has passed away. RIP warrior. MK262MOD1 sends |
Rest Easy Sir.
Blue skies and soft landings. Thank you for your service and for the legacy you left for others to follow. |
Rest in Peace Major Winters

One last DZ for a man who was certainly part of our Greatest Generation. God speed, sir.
|
I don't believe I have ever felt more heartbroken from the loss of someone who I've never had the pleasure of actually meeting. Although there have been so many good men, some of much recognition and others of little, who shared fantastic traits like those of Major Dick Winters, this is the one who I studied the most and would try so hard to emulate his characteristics.
Rest in peace Major Winters. You will never be forgotten. |
Great soldier, great leader, great man. RIP.

Rest in peace, Sir. Your story was inspirational and one that I will never forget. Although it has been said by those that served under him that they would follow Major Winters to hell, today I am confident many of them rendezvoused in heaven.

Thank you for the example you were and continue to be. Rest in peace Sir. |
Rest in Peace Sir. I will be looking for you, Col Howard, Col Maroney and Others..... at that Rally Point, just off of the Final DZ!!

I am amazed at how this country has, throughout history, consistently produced real-life heroes. They come from nowhere, with very humble origins, and go forth and do the impossible.
Dick Winters was a great man and a hero. Our loss is Heaven's gain. |
RIP Sir

Rest in Peace, Major. Thank you for your life time of service and sacrifice. You have been an inspiration to generations of warriors. You will ALWAYS be missed and NEVER forgotten.

In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti Amen.
In pace requiescat Sir. Dominus vobiscum. Thank you for leading the way Major Winters. |
RIP Sir.
|
Rest in peace brother.

I have to agree with a previous post about the loss felt even though i never met the man. I read Band of Brothers well before the movie came out, though the movie put things in visual perspective. He was a true leader and the world is just a little darker without men like him in it.
|
Rest in Peace, Sir.
|
God must have needed a great man, soldier, and leader so he handpicked you sir. RIP.
|
RIP Sir
|
Rest in peace, Sir. Thank you for being such an inspiration.
|
RIP
RIP
He goes to join the majority of Easy Company and I'm sure a hearty welcome. |
Rest In God's Peace Major.
