I only knew Winters from his portrayal in BoB, which I trust was pretty good, but one thing that always struck me about this portrayal is how much he really wasn't the classic hero - he wasn't a "knight", a hellraiser, nor seemed to have an ounce of bravado, arrogance or killer instinct about him. He seemed like a quiet, professional, thinking and feeling man with a strong sense of duty who hated the business of war, but cared about his men. It felt like his assignment as an officer weighed heavily on him, but he took to keeping that responsibility on himself at all cost, refusing to let others take that burden for him. I think he embodied the attitude of "if I don't do this, if I don't take responsibility, if I don't fight - then who?". And that trait, along with humility, is one that I think we need to learn from men like him. They didn't fight because they wanted to, but they instinctively knew that if they didn't, someone else would pay that price. If there's one thing we should remember Winters and his fighting brothers for, I think it's that.
