Walk Among Heroes Podcast Episode 32 - Day 5- Reid Clanton's Return to Europe - Battle of Brecourt

Jeff Wells Season 1 Episode 54

In our third episode featuring Reid Clanton's return to Europe, we're discussing one of the Band of Brothers' most famous missions, the Battle of Brecourt.

Early in the morning on D-Day, Dick Winters led a small group of 12 men on a daring assault to destroy a German four-gun 105 mm artillery battery sighted on Utah Beach.  The attack was successful and was later chronicled in the second episode of the amazing 'Band of Brothers' series.  How accurate was the account?  What really happened?  Eric LeBoeuf, Normandy tour guide, takes through the entire battle.
