God bless you sir and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service. Thank you for sharing your story, you are part of the bravest men in our history. Much love and gratitude
People this is what a real man looks like, a hero that should be honored forever 🙏, Thank you sir for everything that you did so that me and my family can live free 🙏 ❤️
My Dad was with the 82 nd Airborn He was Machine gunned @ the Buldge. They packed him out on a wood door. They hit him 4 times . He almost got cut in half .. My Dad was my hero . He never talked about it until I came home from Vietnam. I was in the Marine Corps. They were the Greatest Generation ! We Miss him everyday !
It’s just so sad when we hear from the real soldiers. They were all young boys on both sides. Fighting for a cause that was beyond them. When we have memorial services every year I always take the time to watch these hero’s walk together to the German Cenotaph to shake hands and even hug each other. That would make a grown man cry. They were children when they fought but now they are old men who share the reality. Bless them all.
Interesting about the 7.92mm slug being left in his thigh. Even with the more modern surgical procedures, it wasn't any different from WWI. I spoke with a WWI Veteran that had the same injury and the doctors did the same thing. He carried that slug all the way to the grave.
War is terrible. My father-in-law was drafted into the mountain troops at the age of 18, was wounded and later became a British prisoner of war in Africa. He returned home as an adult weighing less than 50kg.
He films these every week or so with different veterans sometimes states apart. It takes a while to edit and upload these so this could be a few months old.
@@That_1_Collector Damn they still exist! That makes these interviews even more valuable nowadays, just before this heroic generation will be gone forever.
Nice-looking, good-natured man. Seems pretty sharp for memories from long ago, most you tried to forget. Thank you for everything sir!
Like my Hero Father that served in WW2, this man is one of the greatest generation. Look at his medals and citations. Thank you Sir.

Your dad is part of the greatest Generation. Men like him saved us.
Your dad is my hero too and you also are for serving our country, Thank you...
Some 20 year olds wish they had that guys hairline
Thank You for Your service!
What an amazing soldier , enjoyed his story ,
The Greatest Generation.
The problem is, the stories keep being told but the lessons keep not being learned. The only thing we learned is how to fight war better.
Cool dude!!!🤩🤩🤩
Youre a great man best to you and family
Great interview, thanks for your service. Cut the music.

I thought it would have gone straight through, but apparently not.

All these WW2 vets should be 100 year old or more now, did you record these interviews some years ago?

@@That_1_Collector @TheYoungCollector Cheers so Guy must be well into his 90's then.
@@misterdog7 I looked him up and he is 101!

My grandpa was one of the youngest and he is 98 now. There are some that are still 97 that were 16 or 17 when they joined at the end of the war
Mom's husband was shit up with a MG and an 88mm in Italy in 43 6 or bullet holes and leg blown up . Went to he's grave with German steel in him
America treated German POW much better than the way we were treated. He's a very forgiving man.
