About the book:

 

fter chronicling the personal stories of the last few surviving Band of Brothers in "We Who Are Alive & Remain,"

 

author Marcus Brotherton presents a collection of remembrances from the families of deceased Easy Company soldiers ...

 

Compiled from notes, journals, letters, photographs, and the author's interviews with those who knew the men best,

 

this unique volume features never-before-told stories of the Band of Brothers, one of the most revered combat units in history.

 

A Company of Heroes is an intimate, revealing portrait of the lives of the men who fought for our freedom

 

during some of the darkest days the world has ever known. Some of the men profiled never returned home,

 

their lives tragically cut short. Others returned, only to struggle and drift, never fully able to shake their memories of battlefield horror.

 

Others returned and adjusted well. Armed with newfound wisdom and honor, they passed on an enduring legacy to their families

 

that continues to inspire new generations of Americans today.

 

 

Personal memories from the families of:

 

Albert Blithe, Gordon Carson, Pat Christenson, Bill Evans, Tony Garcia, Smokey Gordon,

 

Hack Hanson, Salty Harris, Moose Heyliger, Frenchy Lamoureux, George Lavenson

 

Joe Liebgott, Carwood Lipton, Robert Marsh, Skip Muck, Patrick O'Keefe, Alex Penkala,

 

George Potter, Robert Rader, Mike Ranney, LaVon Reese, Doc Roe, Ron Speirs,

 

Floyd Talbert, Joe Toye, and Robert Van Klinken

I just finished reading Brotherton's book, We Who Are Alive and Remain, also about the men of Easy Co. It is an excellent read. I am about to start this book.

 

I am so happy that Marcus Brotherton has recorded these histories.
