Sad day indeed. I know he was never really comfortable with being called a hero, but he sure was one in my eyes. We've lost an American treasure.

We thank him for his service.

He was my hero. RIP Major Winters.

And I'm not supposed to cry at work, dagnabbit.

Nor you suppose to check out subsim at work

If the miniseries are of any indication of the man he certainly will win my utmost respect.

It's been a long and beautiful journey, RIP Sir!
