Dick Winters, of 'Band of Brothers' fame, dies
Winters was always gracious about his new-found celebrity, but never really comfortable with it. He never claimed to be a hero and said that he had nothing to do with the national effort to get him the Medal of Honor, the nation’s highest military honor.

When people asked him if he was a hero, he liked to answer the way his World War II buddy, Mike Ranney, did.

“No,” Ranney said. “But I served in a company of heroes.” That became the tag line for the miniseries.

Rest in peace Maj. You truly are in a company of heroes.
 
Major Winters, R.I.P.

Many thanks for your service to your country, rest now and know you will be remembered.
 
Real " heros " don't call themselves as such , .......... these men usually claim they did what they think any man would do in a desperate situation , ........ that's why there are so few of them ..........
