#28: 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 II
I'd love to hear your thoughts - send me a text here
After a two week break, I am glad to be back and hope your new year is off to a wonderful start! This week in part two of a four part tale, we continue to story of Joe Beyrle. After he jumped into Normandy with 3rd Battalion, 101st Airborne Division he finds himself alone and does his best to cause a little mischief. He is then captured not once, but twice by the Germans and learns the sad fate of his battalion commander and two best friends. This is all before he comes face to face with the senior German commander in France, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel and ends up in a comma for six days.
We have no Ghost of Arlington this week but we do honor the following:
- Army Private First Class Jack Brey
- Army Private First Class Orv Vanderpool
- Army Lieutenant Colonel Robert "Bull" Wolverton (US Military Academy Post Cemetery, Section VII, Row A, Grave 54)
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!
