Wayne Morris role in Paths of Glory is so ironically different from his actual war experience, that's acting I guess.
It’s quite fitting the Merchant Mariners of the United States Maritime Service became Veterans given their noteworthy contribution to the war effort.
Really great job…love your take on this.
Well done
Michael Caines read of "IF" by Rudyard Kilpling is epic.
Dude, you are an amazing person. As a vet, I am personally touched by these videos. I'm almost 60 and grew up knowing most of these heroes served. I think a Chuck Norris story might be in the cards. Just saying, a fellow blue vet.
It's amazing how many actors and athletes served in WWII. Pat Tillman is the only one I remember from Afghanistan. I'm sure there were others. Are there enough to make a video like this?
Don't worry about the accent… I heard it in my head.
Falk is great in the movie "Anzio". I think thats the movie.
No complaints but the mortality rate of 20% for the Mighty 8th was over the course of their service, not per mission. A 20% mortality per mission would have wiped out 90% entire Air Force inside of 10 missions.
Liberal are patriots too. So there is no surprise about Norman Lear.
Please remember Demond Wilson of Sandford and Son. All these great veterans should be honored thank you for telling their stories.
The non-John Waynes
Incredible series!! Greatest Generation Ever by far 👍🇺🇸
Love your channel. The heroic actions of famous people- men and women- from wartime service. Equally all your takes on ordinary people and those who gave their lives are just as important. Thank you.
Thanks Nick, great work and information.
I can’t wait until I can get your book on Kobo. I have their eReader.
The 2 generations from the four corners of the Earth (both men and women) who fought so bravely to defeat Facism in the 2 horrifically destructive WWs MUST NEVER BE FORGOTTEN -THEIR VALOUR,BRAVERY AND SELFLESS SACRIFICE MUST FOREVER BE SPOKEN ABOUT WITHOUT PAUSE – AND THE YOUNG PEOPLE WORLDWIDE MUST BE REMINDED OF THEIR BRAVERY AND COMMITMENT TO DEFENDING FREEDOM EVEN IF IT COST THEM THEIR LIVES (WHICH IT DID TO SO MANY MILLIONS). ONLY BECAUSE OF THEIR ULTIMATE AND ALTRUISTIC SACRIFICES HAVE THE WESTERN WORLD AND ITS POPULATIONS BEEN ALLOWED THE FREEDOM TO GROW AND PROSPER.
GOD BLESS ALL OF THEM THAT ARE STILL ALIVE AND PLEASE GOD THOSE THAT DIED IN THE ACT OF FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM – TAKE THEM TO YOUR HEART AND GRANT THEM ENTRY INTO HEAVEN FOR THEIR ULTIMATE AND ALTRUISTIC SACRIFICE FOR THEIR FELLOW MAN AND THE GENERATIONS THAT FOLLOWED.
❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for telling us their stories. Its always good to hear the backgrounds of our well known celebrities.
True casualty rates for many bomber groups…. Was 60% imagine VOLUNTEERING for a job the majority of those who did it died …. Salute to the greatest generation ❣️
