E. Company Remember Normandy 1944
A monument commemorating the heroism of Easy Company, 506th PIR, has been unveiled at Brecourt Manor, Normandy. It was here that the 'Band of Brothers' successfully destroyed a deadly gun emplacement firing onto the Utah beach landings during the early hours of D-Day. Far behind enemy-lines, the vastly out-numbered men later received Bronze and Silver Stars for their actions. Now, for the first time, Genesis will publish their recollections and personal photographs in a signed, historical limited edition book.This title is due for release very soon.
