Happy birthday Sir. I’ll have a drink in your honor since you still probably abstain.
Ditto!
Happy birthday, Major winters.
Great figure, it was interesting reading about him, and them seeing the protrayal on Band of Brothers.
What a real hero, this man is. The word is thrown around a lot but this man exemplified the definition.
He fulfilled his promise to god that after the war he would find a quiet piece of land and live in peace the rest of his life. I saw an interview with him and he was asked about that promise. Some beavers were causing some problems on his property and he wouldn’t exterminate them like most people do because he valued all life.
Happy Birthday! We owe you so very much.
God Bless Happy Birthday and Many more.
Happy Birthday, Major Winters. Thank you, Sir.
You are a true hero.
Happy Birthday Major Winters. May God Bless you with many more. Thank you and the rest of the “Greatest Generation” for your sacrifices to keep us safe and free.
My Uncle was in the 325th Glider and was in HQ Btn, 82nd Airborne. He more than likely served with Maj Winters early but he was killed in the Atlas Mountains right before the invasion of Sicily.
I thought Dick Winters passed away last year.All the same he was.another hero from the greatest generation.
Happy Birthday, Major Winters!
LOVE BoB! I choke up when I hear the theme music. When it premiered on HBO, my Dad (101st, Vietnam and Ft. Campbell) hadn’t heard of it, and I was so impressed that I taped every episode for him (parents never get premium channels.) He later bought the DVDs when they were available.
I am hoping to get to Normandy and Bastogne next year with Dad.
Happy birthday, Major Winters and thank you for your service to America and to our freedom and way of life. We are indebted to you and all who have honorably worn our nations uniform.
A big WHOA to one of the finest officers and soldiers this nation has ever had. Beyond a Band of Brothers was a great read.
Happy birthday Winters. You may no think of yourself as a hero but the rest of us know better.

My son recently made Eagle Scout and greatly admired Major Winters. My husband wrote to Major Winters and my son received a very nice letter and autographed photo of him when the 101st was in Belgium. One of the great Anericans that served their country.
The Blu-Ray editon of Band of Brothers came out in November.
Very, very well done.
Happy birthday.
This is just for you, your Band of Brothers, and all our Heroes, wherever they may be:
America, So Many Heroes
