Restoring a Vandalized Band of Brothers Site | History Traveler Episode 135

Currahee Mountain in Toccoa, GA is a special place. Historically, it is where men from 4 different parachute infantry regiments trained in preparation to fight tyranny abroad in WWII. Among these where the men of Easy Company, 506th PIR who were made famous in the series Band of Brothers. This place also holds importance to rock climbers and people who want to take in the scenic vista and reflect on the beauty of God's creation. But over the years, the top of Currahee has been marred by vandals who have spray painted the rocks there. In November of 2020, I posted a video from the top of Currahee to draw attention to the problem (link below). It it, I suggested that we get a group together to fix this problem. The response was overwhelming. People from all over the world reached out to see what they could do. In the end, we raised money from across the globe and had people from across the U.S. show up to work in conjunctions with the Currahee Cleanup Project to start the monumental task of restoring this place to its natural state. This video is a testament to what can happen when people band together and commit themselves to doing good.
