Jumping Into History
Easy Company’s first real test came during the Normandy invasion on D-Day, June 6, 1944. They were dropped behind enemy lines in the dark, facing confusion, scattered drops, and immediate danger. Imagine trying to assemble a team in the middle of a forest, under fire, at night, with your equipment missing and friendly fire occasionally mixing into the chaos. It was a logistical nightmare, but these guys adapted fast.
