Speaking of Eagles - (emphasis below my own)

Rushing into combat against an enemy smashing through an ancient European forest. Freezing. Far from home.

They were fighting for their lives on the continent. And the lives of millions of others.

These were the Screaming Eagles in 1944.

Remember them this holiday season. pic.twitter.com/0ZEhP8J2kO— 101st Airborne Div. (@101stAASLTDIV) December 20, 2020

Look up the story of General McAuliffe, acting commander of the 101st (Screaming Eagles) during the Battle of the Bulge. General Mac never gave up!
