Company troops are fighting enemies while helping injured comrades. People who are injured want to continue fighting even if they break their feet or hurt their heads. The soldiers are close in trust and hope to continue fighting their brothers rather than returning to England. Another example of male trust and courage happened when a German tank approached the Easy Company in a German counterattack. The other two companies retreated Easy Company and abandoned it. Even if under attack by mortar, the company maintains its position. Wales and private John McGrath crushed tanks using rocket launchers and ran into a very dangerous open space for them. Winter continues to lead the success of Easy Company. He was praised for his success, but he asked for a male medal.
