Darrell Powers was a non-commissioned officer with Easy Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, in the 101st Airborne Division during World War II. Powers was portrayed in the HBO miniseries Band of Brothers by Peter Youngblood Hills. The 2011 book Shifty's War by journalist Marcus Brotherton, published by Penguin/Berkley-Caliber, captures Sgt. Powers' full life story-another one of the many heroes who made all of us free, he died on this day in 2009
Death is Like Taxes
We all pay the price some day
Lest All Rest In Peace
We all pay the price some day
Lest All Rest In Peace
