Step Into History with the Easy Company Campaign

Follow in the footsteps of Easy Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, on a virtual journey through one of World War II’s most legendary campaigns.

Your journey begins with Easy Company’s grueling stateside training before crossing the Atlantic to England and into Europe. Trace their path from the dramatic midnight drop behind Utah Beach on D-Day, through the hard-fought fields of the Netherlands, and into the freezing woods surrounding Bastogne, Belgium, where they famously held the line during the Battle of the Bulge. The journey culminates with Easy Company’s final push into Germany and on to Berchtesgaden, home of Hitler’s famed Eagle’s Nest.

Along the way, you’ll test your own resolve while honoring the soldiers whose story began on Georgia’s Currahee Mountain and the motto that came to define them: “Currahee” — “We Stand Alone.”
