The brave men and women with a letter "W" on their helmets were likely part of the 101st Airborne Division, also known as the "Screaming Eagles," during World War II. The "W" stood for "Warrior" and was a symbol of their unit. This division was known for their bravery and skill in combat, particularly during the D-Day invasion of Normandy in 1944.
