“Hang Tough”
The Major Richard Winters Memorial at Sainte-Marie-du-Mont, Normandy. Major Winters inspired a TV series, Band of Brothers. He served in the 101st Airborne Division (the ‘Screaming Eagles’) and was noted for his exceptional leadership when American forces parachuted into Normandy for the D-Day invasion on 6 June 1944. He led ‘Easy Company’ a name that sits strangely with his motto ‘Hang Tough’.
On the plinth:
"Wars do not make men great, but they do bring out the greatness in good men.
Les guerres ne font pas les grands hommes, mais elles révélent la grandeur des hommes justes;" and “In honour of Dick Winters and all those American junior officers who led the way on D-Day, June 6, 1944. May we never forget their leadership under fire.”
