Follow Me! - The Leadership of Major Dick Winters

Major Richard (Dick) Winters is one of the most incredible examples of leadership and virtuous masculinity in the 20th century. His story was told in Band of Brothers and in his own war memoirs, and here I take a look at the wisdom he shares, why it matters, why his deeds in war were so impressive, and how his example enlightens us today. In his book, Winters laid out 10 principles for successful leaders to follow, so let's examine how he lived those out during his service in World War II, and ponder what we can learn from this great man.

I like Ground, but while they say they offer non-English articles, and supposedly articles in their original languages, they sure don't make it easy to find them.

It is also important to note that the actors in BoB are considerably aged up. Col. Sink was only 39, and Winters was just 26 or 27 when he was made a Major. For comparison it generally takes a commissioned officer 11 years to be made a Major today.

[@master_samwise]

For real. It's insane what those men did at such young ages.

[@plebisMaximus]

War movies always do that. For most of us, that's all we'll ever see of war, so it's easy to forget the men who win wars on the ground are really just young boys. I'm currently 24 and still consider myself a dumb kid, can't imagine being conscripted for the eastern front at 18.

Winters was 27 during the events of D-Day. Damian Lewis was 29 during the filming of Band of Brothers. That isn’t really aging up.

In college i went on a month trip across Normandy, Belgium and Germany, roughly the same route Easy took throughout the war. From Normandy to Bastogne, to even Dachau and the Eagle's Nest. The foxholes from the Bulge are still there. It's a surreal feeling knowing you can stand at the same spot where men fought and suffered and died. I have immense respect and reverence for Captain Winters and Easy Company and I wish that if I ever have to serve my country I can do them proud. Currahee!

[@master_samwise]

In the book Band of Brothers (I think), Ambrose mentions how he visited Foy with Winters and Winters' wife while he was in the process of writing the book. The ground there had been freshly tilled, and Mrs. Winters found a spent shell-casing in the fields from where Easy Company advanced toward the town. It's incredible how much of that history has been preserved.

[@nametakenfan]

An absolutely fitting tribute to great men and and inspiration to anyone that strives to be a better every day. Thank you for the video

[@tommymaxey2665]

I've been to Normandy. I went in 2019 during a student exchange program before my senior year of high school. We started the day driving to Point du Hoc and ended it at Villers-sur-Mer. It was such an amazing trip. The area is so peaceful and beautiful now. Looking at the bunkers and AA emplacement at Point du Hoc was an eye opener. Looking at a concrete bunker and seeing a chunk taken out of it, you knew shit went down their. Walking twords the sea, the younger brother of the host family i was staying with, ran down and up a crater. At first, my thoughts were "oh hes having fun. That's nice.. wait a second.. that hole wasn't there before june 6th. " Then, seeing the cliff themselves was crazy. To think those Rangers were able to land on the beach, deploy grapling hooks, then climb up a roap ladder in crummy weather with 100 lbs worth of gear and getting shot at. It's a heroic feat, i dont know if i could do it with the most perfect conditions. We went to the American cemetery there next. The layout is similar to Arlington national cemetery. It's a beautiful place. Lots of crosses their We ended it at a town called Villers-sur-Mer. We swam in the english channel their(which is really fucking gross dont do that it has so much junk in it). In that town there are still the temporary docks created by the British. After the day i was blown away that such a peacful area was once so full of violence and bloodshed

I wouldn't be the person I am without this man. Band of brothers changed me as a whole, after the first episode, 9/11 happened.

Many of us latched on to this around this time, and men like Dick Winters was the tale told to us.

So many people love fantasy for its ability to take characters you love and take you along a journey of honor and perseverance. People say be brave and bold like Beowulf, Aragorn and Gimli, Hercules. We should strive to be as bold as these great men. They weren’t great men who accomplished things, they were men who accomplished great things. As we all can.❤

@@master_samwisegiven your channel’s content and style, I can actually make a specific recommendation on the topic I think you might enjoy - Leningrad: Siege and Symphony by Brian Moynahan The true stories of starved and traumatized musicians pushing themselves to the brink of exhaustion to create the 7th symphony are particularly powerful. It’s a wonderful and harrowing and at times unbelievable true story.

[@ericweisseman]

In the vein of celebrating men like Winters, I'd heartily recommend to Master Samwise and everyone to read up on battles that aren't afforded the spotlight of pop culture and something like BoB; actions that were far more desperate than anything the Airborne ever had to endure: Gloster Hill and Imjin, Dien Bien Phu, Taffy 3, Ortona, etc. The sheer fortitude and guts of many of those men involved (including leaders on the ground) and some of their insane feats beggars belief, and is just as, if not more deserving of praise. Even someone like Winters would've truly got the meaning of combat fatigue in the fighting in Dien Bien Phu, where men literally, suddenly died in their posts from sheer exhaustion. This isn't to throw shade at or discount their accomplishments at all, but I think it's reasonable to say that following D-Day, given the massive material advantage of the Allies and that the Germans were running on fumes (literally), there were scarcely any truly "do-or-die" moments for the Allied forces beyond local blunders like Arnhem or Hurtgen. Even Wacht-am-Rhein was never going to succeed, and in any case Elsenborn Ridge was far more important to its outcome than Bastogne.

[@wherethetatosat]

A man leads by example. Winters did all the same drills they did. He faced the same horrors all his men did. Together, they are a unit but they are a unit comprised of individuals. Winters bears the responsibility of knowing that when he commands his men to do something; they'll do it. And he'll never ask someone to do something he wouldn't do himself. Because it does mean that he will inadvertently command people to die, but it will never be out of maliciousness. He will do his best to get as many people out alive while still completing the assignment and making the tough decisions.

I read Dike's story as an example of how easy it is for a person without the superhuman mental fortitude of someone like Winters to crack under the immense pressure of combat.

4:50 "that isn't saying a leader has to be able to do all that his subordinates can do" Yea, it's the difference between Goals and Actions, a commander is expected to be willing to fire a heavy machine gun if he expects his unit to do so, he may be terrible at it but he must be willing to do it if necessary, any leader who says "oh I can't fire that because the vibrations hurt my hands" will be mocked by his men unless he can earn their respect in other ways. The difference is easier to see when you have a IT team, if you ask one of your coders to stay late into the night to finish work for a fast approaching deadline, you aren't asking them to code anything, you are asking them to "stay late into the night to work on the project" which for them is coding, and as a manager you must be willing to "stay late into the night to work on the project" even if that doesn't mean coding which you may be terrible at you must just play your part.
