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.

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.

What a great example of an American. 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.

Surgicalcric 01-09-2011 21:16

The GREATEST generation indeed.

Thank you for the example you were and continue to be.

Rest in peace Sir.

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.

MAJ Winters
 
REST IN PEACE

Isaiah 6:8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”

And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

Rest in peace brother.

sinjefe 01-10-2011 08:16

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.

Kingfisher 01-10-2011 08:20

Rest in Peace, Sir.
