"Wild Bill"

"Remember, the past is a prelude to the future.  Teaches you how to go forward."
-William "Wild Bill" Guarnere

If you have not seen the mini series "Band of Brothers" I highly recommend it, because you get to meet one of the coolest American heroes to come out of World War II.  "Wild Bill" was quite the character, and I enjoyed his book "Brothers in Battle: Best of Friends" which is about his experience with the 101st airborne, along with his buddy Babe Heffron.  Their story is just one of the reasons why I love to learn about World War II, and why I continue to enrich my mind with books.  
Until next time!
