Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I whakawhiwhia a Heyliger ki te Kamupene E i mua i tana wehenga atu i te U.S. ana i muri mai i whakawhiwhia ia hei Kamupene Matua, 2nd Battalion, rangatira o te roopu moutere. Whai muri i te whakawhiwhinga o Richard Winters hei Kaiwhakahaere Whakahaere Tuarua (XO), ka riro i a First Lieutenant Heyliger te whakahau o Easy Company mai i te whakakapi tuatahi a Winters. I whakahau a Heyliger i a Easy Company i te wā o
Operation Pegasus i te Oketopa 23, 1944, a ka tirotiro i te whakaoranga me te tangohanga o etahi o te British 1st Airborne Division i tutaki ki te taha Tiamana o te raina i muri i te Operation Market Garden i puta noa i te Rhine. Whai muri i te whakaoranga angitu o nga tangata 138 mai i te British 1st Airborne Division, i whakawhiwhia ki a ia te British Military Cross, i patua a ia e tetahi o ana tangata ake, he hoia tawhito, i te Oketopa 31, 1944, i a ia e tirotiro ana me te korero ki a Richard Winters mo te whakahau i te Kamupene Easy. I muri mai ka uru ia ki te kiri me te uaua i mua i tana tukunga i te Hui-tanguru 1947.
