Us Airborne Squad (winter)

Forever immortalized in the epic TV series Band of Brothers, the paratroopers of Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division were thrown directly into the front lines during the surprise German offensive in the Ardennes in December 1944. Ill-equipped for the harsh winter, they braved freezing temperatures and enemy fire with little more than wool gloves, scarves, and an unbreakable resolve.
