Spotlight With Gary Shipe 05 - 21 - 18
This week on our Public Affairs Program, Sunday at 5a:
As Memorial Day gets closer we offer an encore broadcast from several years ago with two veterans of World War II that have since passed away.
Roscoe Mitchell and Art Shipe served on opposite sides of the globe during World War II. Roscoe was a nose gunner and bomb toggler in a B-17 with the 8th Air Force in Europe. Art was a turret gunner in a Grumman TBM Avenger that flew off the air craft carrier Bunker Hill in the Pacific.
They share some of their experiences in the war and relate their feeling that they are not heroes, but rather, the real heroes didn’t make it home.
World War II veterans are dying at a rate of 1000 per day. Make sure you thank one as Memorial Day approaches on May 28th.
