Captain Winters be a stock broker on Billions. Same guy, different

Great series. My dad was in the same unit as Winters.

Scroll down to the bottom picture.

And a Captain no less. There are a lot of captains in 'Easy Company', any idea why that is?

No idea at all. My dad was a doctor, perhaps some of the others also.
He was a surgeon at the field hospital in Bastogne featured in episode
6.

There was a major also. Maybe the battalion staff was standing with the company for the photo.

The Major (Winters) was the star of the TV show and actually the XO of
the 506th but he was CO of Easy for most of the European campaign.
I agree that picture seems to be heavy on officers and I don't see a
lot of the names used in the TV show that is fairly accurate from what
I understand. Maybe most of the enlisted guys were working when they
took the picture.
A company is typically around 100 guys isn't it?
