Tales from a 99-Year-Old Army Vet
Manage episode 461238709 series 2496403
Seventeen-year-old Jack Moran enlisted in 1944 to help fight the Nazis, and, within his first fifteen seconds of combat, he witnessed seven fellow Soldiers die. He went on to fight in the Battle of the Bulge, chase Nazis through Germany and help liberate the Buchenwald Concentration Camp. Hosts LTG (Ret.) Leslie C. Smith and SMA (Ret.) Dan Dailey sit down with the now-99-year-old Moran to discuss his World War II experiences, how he continues to share his story with youth today, and the taste of different beers.
