From this website, his men (those few that live) are trying to get him a Congressional Medal of Honor for his action at Brecourt Manor on June 6, 1944.

He found his peace and kept the promise that he made to himself the day after they landed in France and had their first battle.

I read his book "Beyond the Band of Brothers", As a fan of the movie and Ambrose book, I felt that I had to hear his version. Which proved that Ambrose did a remarkable job telling the story of these men.

One hell of an American. It’s an honor to have lived while he did, though I didn’t know him. We’re a better country because he lived.
