God Speed Mr. Winter's and to all the WWII vets past and present

Does this include Axis vets?

*This might stir things up whether the answer is a Yes or a No so everyone please be civil in your replies.

It would for me.

Just want to mention he's certainly not forgotten here either, one of the cities he helped liberating (Eindhoven in the Netherlands, where he is an honorary citizen) the city council honoured him with a minute of silence.

Now they're even talking about a statue for him there: http://eindhoven.blog.nl/geschiedenis/2011/01/10/ereburger-major-richard-winters-overleden-tijd-voor-standbeeld
Wonder if Major Winters would have liked that, but there you go, a statue. Personally I'd like that.
