I found his story to be humbling, and have found him to be an influence on my life.

This one makes me tear up a little. I have seen BOB so many times and read so much about this man that I feel as though I knew him. So long, Major Winters.

In this day and age when we glorify sports stars and reality tv personalities, we need to remember people like Dick Winters who live quiet, very dignified lives.
These are the people our youth should be aspiring to be. |

I finally watched Band of Brothers this past summer.
That man and his "brothers" are the true definition of American heroes. |
