OMG!!! If what I witnessed on Band Of Brothers the other night of Captain Winters'exploits in Holland are true-that man should have been awarded the Medal Of Honor!!!
I know he earnt the DSC in Normandy at Bercourt Manor for destroying 4 105mm batteries, but other than that-can anyone point me to a good reference point to learn more about him???
Many thanks in advance...
