I understand a 12 foot statue of Lt Richard Winters, E Co, 2nd BN, 506 PIR, 101st Airborne Div (Band of Brothers) was unveiled in Saint Marie du Mont, France on 6 June, 2012 as a tribute to Junior Officers of the Normandy Campaign.

Winters had stated he would only give permission if the tribute was included. He passed away January 2011.

God Bless all those who gave so much for our freedom
