      I whole heartedly second this sentiment! This verbal history of many of the defining moments of the 20th century, not only showcasing the evolution of our armed forces, but also the moments in time that defined who we were as a nation, but also the principles, traditions, sacrifice, and the resolve to uphold the very finest qualities of our great nation!
      The Michelin plantation, one HUGE game of whack-a-Charlie!!!!

      Big thanks to all past, present, and future soldiers who risked all for what they believed in.

    Those stories must be told! The military learns “FROM” history and civilians learn “ABOUT” history. There is a huge difference. “From” comes from the event “about” can be changed by those in power. Keep up the good work!

    Listening to this reminds me of chatting with my dad about the Philippines and Japan. Towards the end of his life we were in the hospital and he said something in tagalo to the nurse and she asked him know you've been in the Philippines? He says oh yeah a long time ago I walked across Luzon and Mindanao. She put him in touch with her dad who fought in the War also. I miss that man.

    How disappointing this gem only has 35k views (currently).. A veteran of 3 gruesome wars with decades of latent knowledge and inspiration to draw upon. Think more folks need to hear a man's story like this. Respect and the utmost appreciation that men such as Mr. Fife walked this earth and fought for this country so I could be so bold as to insert my fruitless opinion.

Going back down a few times for more ammo and to carry their wounded, to then go right back up and fight again. Sadly he passed a couple years ago
