Completely agree. I know this is sort of irrelevant but my grandparents are of this generation. My grandfather is 94, grandmothers 93. I don’t even like to think about it, because at the end of the day I know it’s a numbers game.. I mean are they going to live 15 more years, 10, maybe 5 more ? It gets me pretty upset sometimes. I try my best not to think about it.

​@networth9151 right. "Men" who are more feminine than women. Entitled and self centered. No selfless action or sacrifice for the greater good. And the "tough" ones are not tough, they are loser cowards who hide behind ghetto culture and make no sacrifice for their children who they dont raise. And dont even get me started with women. Flaunting their asses with nothing to contribute, no skills, no loyalt, yet they think the world belongs to them. Im ashamed for them. Theirs a certain few cultures who are wayy worse than the average person, theyre usually really tan and loud

I was an NHS Audiologist for 33 years. I started in the late 1980's and had the absolute privilege of fitting hearing aids to WW2 vets and hearing their stories of war antics. Sadly, over my career, they all passed on but I will never forget the stories they told me and their legends burn on...brightly. Heroes.

Mr Wolf is a true dude. "Hero" is often overused these days but that description doesnt do this gentleman enough justice. Thank you Sir.

Back when real men still had humanity in their hearts even though they were enemies. Soldiers, not the cowards that ran the extermination camps. Amazing stories. I visited a camp during my first tour in 80-81 in Germany, (Dachau) you could feel the pain experienced there in your heart, it was a very eye opening emotional journey that I’ve kept deep inside me. Even after my fourty years until retirement including combat, I got off pretty easy compared to these brave men and women from the greatest generation! Truly honorable hero’s every one of them, God bless them all! THIS is why my normal hour long VA appointments take sometimes three to four hours, I take the time to talk to my hero’s even though we just meet it still feels like we’ve known each other for years. Camaraderie is alive and well in veterans.

Thank you for everything - you are such a hero. ❤ My dad fought in Korea. Was only 9 months due to injury.

Great interview. Thank you for your service, Jerry. And to all the Americans that helped win the war. I am from East Anglia and live near Snetterton heath, it was a base during the war.

What a story. Thank you, Jerry Wolf.

This Vet tells a hell of a story.

My father was a navigator in a B-17 and was shot down during a bombing mission. He spent 18 months as a POW and till the day he died, you couldn't get him to eat anything cooked with cabbage. He weighed 170 going in and weighed 90 odd pounds when his camp was liberated. By the way, his brother-in-law told my grandmother that he was going to go to Germany and liberate Dad, and honest to God, his unit did liberate pops camp. He didn't recognize Pop because he had lost so much weight.

Awesome man. Thank you for your srrvice! My father in law was a Bombadier in a B17 and was shot down in 1943 on his 5th mission as part of the 91st bomb group. The Memphis Belle was in his squadron and completed her 25th mission while he was there. We actually found combat footage of him as he took off in the nose of hia B17 .aking the "V" for victory sign. His bomber was shown in the footage of the bomber formations in his B17E. He was a great man and I am proud to have known him as I am lucky to have such a fine wife of 47 years and a descendant of an original Declaration of Independence signee.

What a journey. It occurs to many- how many were in bombers that were hit by flack or fighters and therefore, altered the plane’s orientation to such a degree that all or a % of crew were unable to reach their parachutes in time It seems his immediate crew looked out for one another as they exited the plane under serious stress

This guy can remember every detail of his experience. What a story. Landing on fumes Will come back for the finish on this one. My Dad was from Brooklyn.
