Dead Mans Corner on the road to Carentan in Normandy. A house used by the Germans to control the region and stop the allies coming from the coast. The real Church of Sainte-Mère-Église in Normandy france, with a representation John Steele of the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment, being traped by one of the corners of the church as his parachute snagged there. Monument and memeriol to the soldiers of Easy Company of the 101 American Airborne that were among the first soldiers to land in Normandy in very early hours of June 6th 1944. It displays the names of those that died on that same day. D-day. A monument dedicated to "LEADERSHIP", in particular to Richard Winters. A junior Officer of the 101 Airborne, known now for his association with Easy Company. It is a monument to TRUE leadership of men. Very few have "what it takes" to be a real leader. Dick Winters was one
