Yesterday evening the world received some sorrowful news. One of the last surviving members of Easy Company, 506th PIR, 101st Airborne Division, as shown on the HBO series "Band of Brothers", has died. . Al Mampre, an Easy Company medic, passed away due to natural causes yesterday in his Colorado home. He joined the Airborne in 1942 and then was sent to Camp Toccoa, Georgia, to train alongside his new found brothers in Easy. Before D-Day, Mampre contracted a nasty neck infection and was unable to jump with his friends. However, on September 17th, 1944, he jumped into Holland during Operation Market Garden. During Easy's probe into Nuenen, he treated Lieutenant Bob Brewer who was shot in the neck by a sniper while standing in the open ahead of the armored column transporting Easy. Despite being shot in the leg himself, Mampre was able to save Brewer's life. After his wound, Mampre would spend the rest of the war as a part of HQ Company. Those around him described him as warm, kind, and having a great sense of humor. I wish I could've met him but, I am lucky enough to have his signature and something he touched and saw thanks to @valorstudiosinc. That's as close as I'll ever get to Mampre, an incredible individual. May he rest in peace. . #ww2 #bandofbrothers #hbo #medic #emt #medical #medicine #doctor #hero #easycompany #dday75 #normandy #101stairborne #506thPIR #506th #paratrooper #airborne #wetsuco #history #historical

Pictured above is an absolutely excellent diagram of the different helmet insignias used by the men of the 82nd and 101st Airborne during the Second World War. These insignias were necessary for the Airborne troops, because it was quickly realised after drops into Sicily that paratroopers and glider borne troops could be quickly scattered. So, it was easier to see the insignia on the side of someone's helmet and be able to tell which regiment/division he was with. From the left we have the insignia(s) of the 372th Glider Regiment, 501st PIR (Parachute Infantry Regiment, 502nd PIR, 506th PIR, 321st Glider Field Artillery Battalion, 377th Parachute Field Artillery Battalion, 907th Glider Field Artillery Battalion, 463rd Parachute Field Artillery Battalion, HQ Divisional Artillery, 81st AAA Battalion, 101st Reconnaissance, 326th Engineer Battalion, 101st Signal Co, 426th QM Company, 801st Ordance Company, and the 326th Medical Company. As you can see, the 82nd Airborne did not use as many helmet insignias. The three they have are for HQ Company/508th PIR, 507th PIR, 3 battalion 508th PIR. As well as being a way of identification for scattered paratroopers, it also gave the men some esprit de corps for their regiments. Some noteworthy regiments on the list are the 501st, 502nd, and 506th PIR who were instrumental in the success of Operation Overlord as well as the Glider regiments who also helped substantially. The 326th Engineer Battalion which was home to the "Filthy Thirteen", who were a small, elite band of American paratroopers that specialized in blowing up bridges, obstacles, etc. The 326th Medical Company was essential to the survival of all wounded paratroopers as you can imagine. On D-Day they were split into three groups: land, sea, and air, so they would have personnel to deal with the anticipated large amount of casualties every step of the way. - #paratroopers #101stairborne #airborne #paratrooper #82ndairborne #normandy #belgium #bastogne #helmet #bandofbrothers #hbo #506th #506thpir #ww2 #wwii #history #worldwar2
