DICK WINTERS

Opis

On D-Day, Dick Winters took off with 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment and prepared to parachute into German-held north France. Ground troops landing on Utah beach were relying on Easy Company to secure one of the causeways that were vital if the troops were to get off the beaches and reach the solid ground of Normandy. The plane carrying many of the commanding officers was shot down, leaving Dick Winters suddenly in command of his company. But during the drop he, and many of his men, had been separated from his equipment and was unarmed except for a trench knife. In his remarkable memoir, Dick Winters tells the tales left untold by Stephen Ambrose in his 1992 epic "Band of Brothers". Starting with an account of the gruelling training designed to make the 506th the most elite unit in the US Army, "Beyond Band of Brothers" is fascinating account of one man's experience of commanding 'Easy Company from D-Day', to the Battle of the Bulge and into Germany. Dick Winters gives real insight into leadership under the most difficult conditions - every man in the company had been injured by the time they reached Germany - and tells the real story of the Allies' final defeat of Hitler, from the point of view of someone who was really there.
