A tribute to Dick Winters

[@laritommola4304]

A real hero and an intelligent man. May he rest in peace. Respect from Finland.

[@stoepselization]

As a German i have to say that this makes me very emotional. Seeing a man who became nearly 93 years old and who fought for freedom and peace in Europe and Germany. The people who fought in WW2 know what it does mean to live in times of war. They gave their lifes so that we can live in peaceful times. We should keep his saying in our minds. May he rest in peace

[@NLGamer236]

these man of easy company and also this man, fought for my freedom in Europe, thanks to all of you, thank you.

[@tyeedwrds]

I was not lucky enough to have ever met Dick Winters or any of his men. I was fortunate to have a Grandfather who fought in WWII. I never knew any of his exploits until I signed up for the Marines. He pulled me aside and was both proud and scared for me. He then began to prepare me for what he thought might be a possibility. I never saw battle, but was glad there were men like my Grandfather and all the men who have died for us. On behalf of a grateful Nation, thanks to all of you!

I am from Springfield Mo, I salute him for being such a fine leader.

[@rafalus87]

I've read book "Band of brothers", and I'm impressed about heroism of Mr Winters. I can't express what I exactly feeling, because my English is poor, but Mr Winters was really hero. Not only American hero, but the world hero.

[@jesperhoba4363]

That final part is brilliant. Big respect for this man.

[@kevmc7711]

Love it. Will show it to my students.

[@Semperfi8516]

God bless you Richard D. Winters you are my hero and take an influence on what i do everyday you are my hero and a hero around the world Rest In Peace.

[@Moose82690]

Being a pennsylvania resident only an hour from where he lived.... this is one true man i would have loved to meet in real life. And the one thing i will always remember of Major Winters is the last part he said in the end of the last episode. "My grandson asked me the other day, Grandpa where you a hero in the war??? Grandpa answered No, but i served in a company of heros." Sir i salute you rest in peace youve earned it

[@peterlibeck7827]

now Rep. I truly, give you my deepest regards Sir.

[@pim1234]

These men are the reason my parents, me and all of the Dutch people of today can live in freedom... we owe Mr. Winters, his company and the USA the life we live today. May Mr. Winters rest in peace.

[@Eddyisrich403]

This man has left us forever, he was the best man of Easy Co. the world will never see a man like him ever again. Rest In Peace Major Winters.

[@mattthekneecap]

Thank you Major Winters, it's men like you that made our country what it is today.

[@bradymilton4389]

thank you for making this

[@kyle66683]

Then there are Legends like Dick Winters! I Salute you Sir! Rest in Peace and God Bless you! Thank You!

[@mattsmurfy]

He died on my 18th birthday. I feel bad now. Rest In Peace Richard Winters, if you were anything like you were portrayed as on Band Of Brothers then you were truly a great, great man.

[@genemilstead]

we lost a true hero may u r i p thank you for ur servies

[@buddyandericka96]

Winters will all ways be a great man

[@triggerfinger141]

When i was a kid, i wanted to grow and invent the time machine and travel back in time to world war 2 to be a paratrooper. Major Dick Winters and the men of easy company make me wish even harder that it is possible. I am truly moved by this vedio, the mini series Band of Brothers, and Major Dick Winters. Im sure it was an honor just to have been freinds with him. Love the vedio.

[@freakyflow]

My Grandfather served in the Canadian army and once said on the way to Normandy that the Americans are going to have it eazy with all the equipment there bringing with them. Meeting with the 101st in Holland he told a few American troops ..Got a smoke?......later told me It didn't matter who or what you had you fought with what ever you had and the 101st proved it

[@zoolander3331]

Ive read the book, been to bastogne, and seen the series....and can honestly say, that his leadership is incredibly inspiring to me...something I will always take with me wherever I go. Cannot imagine being put under that much pressure and coming out alive every time being at the front, leading from the front. Its the greatest story of heroism ive ever heard of. I didnt even know he died until today, I am very saddened, I always wanted to meet him in person, and now I will never have tht chance

[@DaveBaggs]

3:19 to 3:53 is probably one of the best messages I have ever heard. I can only hope everyone can take this message and apply it to their daily life.

[@jakecountryboy999]

R.I.P. Maj. Winters, you will be missed... I want to become an officer in the United States Army in a couple of years, and although I know I will never be as great as you, I will always aspire to try to be like you, and I will do my best everyday

[@MollydogRadar]

Words can not describe my admiration for Major Winters and all the men who fought with him. We are in your debt.

[@kukulclean1804]

One word... Legend.

[@bradkennett5759]

Thank You Maj Winters

[@Alex_Gorell]

God bless you Major

[@Benno828282]

I love the ending, don't need to have all the answers, just do your very best and everything will be all ok.

[@Pdou66]

In the Summer of 1998, I was out of work and I had picked up the book Band of Brothers for some inspiration. After I finished it, I called Mr. Winters to express my gratitude. 2 questions I asked him: Q1: What was your toughest battle? A:"the dike in Holland" Q2: What advice can you give me? A: "You'll find sometimes that the most important thing you can be in life is emotionally prepared to do what you need to do to succeed." God bless you Mr. Winters!

[@FiremanOly]

The more I hear about/learn about this man the more I love and respect him. He is about the same age as my own father, who fought in the Pacific Theater against the Japanese. It truly was a generation of heroes coming out of the Great Depression only to go and fight against the evil axis. We owe so much to this generation and all the other soldiers since, who have put themselves in harm's way to give us a better life here in America. We are not perfect but there is none better.

[@L4st-C4ll]

we will never Forget Dick Winters and his Boys, what he has done deserve our greatest respect. R.I.P.

[@lawsonbeatty2530]

Thank you, Maj. Winters.

[@leivabernie]

I think his most important message was that all wars should be prevented via compromise. He said all wars should end with no shots fired. RIP Richard Winters

[@Volcanic1111]

America and the world has lost a idol of a man who fights not for oil, minerals or over relegion, he faught for his country in it's time of need, showing the true meaning of a American. I hope god is proud of what you did Major, R.I.P.

[@eoinsminty]

R.I.P. You were and are an inspiration!!

[@soldier0559]

MAJ Dick Winters - truly a giant on whose shoulders we stand now. RIP.

[@Jeremy5speed]

There are men, there are good men, there are Great men then there was Easy company

[@Deeeno066]

Goodbye to what seemed like a wonderful and dignified human being. RIP Mr Winters... and thankyou.

[@vans237]

[@airbornejim101e]

[@itsherb2727]

Our generation will never have a true hero like Major winters

[@patrioticpotato2669]

God PLEASE Bless his soul... R.I.P

[@Nuh-zd5py]

.no one will never be like that hero

[@GTAFREAK999]

Great Hero, Truly Sad

[@henryvagincourt]

That says it all.

[@shadow0imposter]

its sad to think that only a few men from the greatest generation are still alive. If your grandfather or great grandfather served in WW2 and you hate his war stories, stop and listen. They arent just stories to them, they were there,they watched their friends die. They want you t no how fortunate you are to have your freedoms and not have to experience what they had to. RIP men of WW2 (and every war,before and after)

[@Phhockey88]

R.I.P. Major Winters we salute you for being a man of honor

[@Fl0yDian86]

My eyes are wet now that I know this man died. The true heroism is about being human in an un-human circumstances like the WW2. We won't see this kind of men anymore. Hooah for all who fought in what they belieaved. R.I.P Mr. Winters!

[@propjoe1060]

A true legend.

[@ikewilson5341]

my all time hero.Duty done Dick, rest in peace.

[@rockndude87]

If I could be half the man Dick Winters was then I will be damn proud of myself. One of the greatest stories was when he came home and owed money to the IRIS they told him he didn't have to pay because he had served with great distinction in World War II. Dick Winters looked the IRIS man in his eye and said "I will pay the money I owe. I am damn proud to be an American".

[@peterlibeck7827]

A Man among Men.

[@djvelliott]

This man was a TRUE Hero! I can't stand how we sometimes water down the definition these days and even refer to sports people and various supposed celebrities as being supposed hero's, when they are far, far from it! RIP Dick and God bless you and all the allied soldiers for all the Freedoms we now have,

[@thehanterman1]

They were all heroes, but some were leaders of heroes. RIP Major Winters.

[@s0052701]

easily one of the most effective and beloved battalion commanders of the Second World War and U.S. Airborne history. A true hero although he'd disagree. RIP Major.

[@koyunbaba73]

May God bless his memory. May we remember to fight for the cause of freedom.

[@KnightOwl2006]

If only more Americans heeded Maj. Winters' advice and not take their freedom for granted, because it is being taken away every day now.

[@pagedown4195]

Best of the best

[@crashburn3292]

If you've only seen the movie and never read the book by Stephen Ambrose.....READ THE BOOK. The mini-series is great, but the book is great. GREAT. The book leaves you thinking: How did these men fight when they KNEW they were going to die, and probably in a horrible way. And Major Winters, who stood at the top of a road, emploring his men to get up and fight while a MG-42 nest was firing on him.... What a stud. How he survived that is a miracle. - He's my hero.

[@rolojosia72]

A fantastic officer and a leader of men, RIP.

[@Ceaaa22]

Folks, he was a Man.

[@xkcnarfam]

R.I.P. Dick. Guido Belgium

[@walteraguirre4670]

thank God for these American Heroes

[@jamesj5015]

True hero. R.I.P. Dick Winters.

[@MrFlavorHD]

Damnit... Just a hero..

[@ndt0615]

The world is running out of heroes.

[@MegaLJ3]

What men of this character went through to keep America free from becoming a dictatorship is beyond comprehension. The sad thing is what politicians are willfully and knowingly doing to make America something other than these men fought and died for.

[@IDomClare]

'America lost a true hero' 'Pennsylvania lost a true hero' The world lost a true hero!

[@eoiggj]

this man could been a president, a leader of country

[@MrSqueezethelemon]

Thumbs up if you sat infront of your computer and saluted him!

[@K.P23]

Guys I'm sure Dick Winters wouldn't want you arguing on a tribute to him R.I.P. Dick may God bless you an love you forever

[@fatboyo1174]

A true Soldier, RIP Major.

[@ketchcaedo1821]

Yes, there are. But then again, this IS "The Man".

[@GirlonFilm1969]

Our resident Muslim DawahFilms needs to take a lesson from Major Winters. Freedom! He won you the freedom you have today, not to curtail others freedom, but to express yourself freely. Don't take it for granted and if you don't like the Constitution of the USA, then go elsewhere. RIP Maj. Winters. You will be missed and Easy Company never forgotten.

[@airbornejim101e]

i will always remember to hang tough major thank you en take all the rest you need.

[@Semperfi8516]

@rockndude87 now thats a man

[@rafalus87]

@Da40cal Yes, I've watched HBO show "Band of Brothers". It's really great show. Greetings from Stalowa Wola, Poland :)

[@Bmossss]

a brave hero !!!!!!!

[@Huisihuilke]

@buttercremehonda Sure is unheard of in Argentina. He didn't do anything for our country. But, still a big hero to Europe and the US, and even the world in general.

[@omyfuckgod412]

if any single one of u watched Band Of Brothers,and u think WINTER IS A PERFECT SOILDER even he didnt fire 1 single round in Foy and Bastonge,THUMBS UPPPPP!!!
