About this listen
“Tells the tales left untold by Stephen Ambrose, whose Band of Brothers was the inspiration for the HBO miniseries…laced with Winters’s soldierly exaltations of pride in his comrades’ bravery.”—Publishers Weekly
In war, great commanders lead soldiers into hell to do the impossible.
They were called Easy Company—but their mission was never easy. Immortalized as the Band of Brothers, they suffered huge casualties while liberating Europe in an unparalleled record of bravery under fire. Dick Winters led them through the Battle of the Bulge, the attack on Foy—where Easy Company reached its breaking point—and finally into Germany, by which time each member had been wounded. Outside Munich, they liberated an SS death camp and captured Berchtesgaden, Hitler’s alpine retreat.
Beyond Band of Brothers is Winters’s memoir, based on his wartime diary, but it also includes his comrades’ untold stories. Only Winters was present from the activation of Easy Company until the war’s end. This is their story, told in his words for the first time.

Easy Company, 506th Airborne Division, U.S. Army, was as good a rifle company as any in the world.

Easy Company was responsible for everything from parachuting into France early D-Day morning to the capture of Hitler's Eagle's Nest at Berchtesgaden. Band of Brothers is the account of the men of this remarkable unit.

Story
Stephen E. Ambrose draws from hundreds of interviews with US Army veterans and the brave Allied soldiers who fought alongside them to create this exceptional account of the day that shaped the twentieth century. D-Day is above all the epic story of men at the most demanding moment of their existence, when the horrors, complexities and triumphs of life are laid bare and courage and heroism come to the fore.

Story
On the hellish battlefields of World War II Europe, Major Dick Winters led his Easy Company - the now-legendary Band of Brothers - from the confusion and chaos of the D-day invasion to the final capture of Hitler's Eagle's Nest. But Winters' story didn't end there; it was only the beginning. He was a quiet, reluctant hero whose modesty and strength drew the admiration of not only his men but millions worldwide.

Excellent
If you have watched Band of Brothers or read the book by AMBROSE, then this is a must hear. Mr. Winters attention to detail and historical anchoring of stories to events was impeccable. It was easy to follow and clearly narrated, the only fly in the ointment was the odd voice acting for qouting historical figures or other persons by the narrator.

Inspirational!
The men and women of the Greates Generation set a high standard or courage, determination, toughness, and morality that I fear we are not able to meet during our turbulent times. We need more people who are like Dick Winters.

Amazing History of Easy Company
Hearing the story of Easy company (Band of Brother's fame) from this personal perspective was truly heartwarming. The highs and lows described complete the full picture of the contribution that Easy Company played during WW2. I feel I know each member just a little bit better and I am truly humbled to live in the peace they helped secure. Thank you for your service one and all.
