#27: Red-Blooded American in the Red Army - The True Story of Joseph Beyrle, the Only Soldier to Fight for Both America and the Soviet Union in World War II, Part I
I'd love to hear your thoughts - send me a text here
Don't miss the special announcement at the start of the episode about the new-ish format I will be adopting so that I don't go insane trying to produce too much content each week and a scheduling update for Christmas & New Years.
This week we start the multi-part tale of US Army Staff Sergeant Joseph Beyrle who went from an athletic kid with a scholarship to Norte Dame, to a 20 year old who made two solo clandestine jumps into Nazi-occupied France to deliver hundreds of thousands of dollars in gold to the French Resistance... that's hundreds of thousands of 1944 money - it would be millions of dollars today.
We end the episode on the eve of D-Day as thousands of American and British paratroopers get ready to jump into Normandy and start up the European Theater's western front.
As always, a very special thanks to Mountain Up Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!
