This is truly sad,  Just listening to this guy talk made you proud to be an American!

I never had the honor of meeting him in person, but I know some people who did.

Said he was a true human being.

Most of Americans have no idea what they just lost!

Salute Major Winters!

Powell: Really Rock, well I'd like to meet him.
Rock:  No ya wouldn't.

Those who want to talk about themselves generally don't deserve the attention; those who want the attention to go to others - like Winters - oft are much more worthy

Wisdom is realizing I will be an idiot in the future.
Common sense is trying to not be an idiot right now

Really sad! Within 10 years we will have almost no WW2 Vets left. He was a classic!

Thanks for posting and RIP.
