Darrell "Shifty" Powers died Jun 17th 2009. Didn't even hear about it until today. If you don't know who he was, he was the sharpshooter for Easy Company. "Band of Brothers"
Very sad. We are losing more and more ww2 vets everyday. It won't be too long before that conflict is gone from living memory.
"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
He looked like a nice man. R.I.P. Mr. Shifty
And Shepherds we shall be
NOW THIS is something to RIP about. Thank you Bizcuts for taking the time to post this. This is worth knowing and honoring. Not some of the more recent RIP's?!! :idea: :!:
Although Michael Jackson was a good musician and all it is good to see Shifty up here first. Wish the Media thought that way..
We shared a table with some of the 506th guys at the Reno division reunion a few years back.
