YOU have a rendezvous with destiny!" with this, Maj. Gen. William
C. Lee, the original commander, concluded his activation speech to
the 101st Airborne Division. Screaming Eagles have found meaning
and expression in these words. They kept that rendezvous with
destiny. They kept it in Normandy by initiating the Allied assault
on Hitler's Fortress Europe, June 6, 1944; by storming and
capturing Carentan -- initial proof of the division's strength in
coordinated ground action. They kept it in Holland by liberating
the first Dutch city, Eindhoven, and blazing a path of liberation
20 miles northward in a campaign that kept them fighting 73 days
without relief. They kept it at Bastogne where against overwhelming
odds they held tenaciously to doom von Rundstedt's December
counter-offensive to failure. Success of the division has been the
result of a happy combination of brave men commanded by bold
leaders. Mutual confidence of the 101st is exemplified by the
remark of an Eagle soldier during the siege of Bastogne: "They've
got us surrounded -- the poor bastards!"
