I loved the book and the mini-series, Band of Brothers, and thought Winters was such an inspiration for his men. I have seen the men who served under him interviewed in several different documentaries about the 101st airborne and it is obvious they respected him very much.
If you haven't seen Band of Brothers I highly recommend it. Under Winters, E Company of the 101st Airborne saw so much action during WWII, all the way from storming the beaches at Normandy to Berlin, and was instrumental in knocking out the German machine gun batteries during D-Day which was mowing down the allies as they landed on the beaches.
