À propos de cet audio
From landing on Utah beach amidst floating bodies in life preservers to a combat glider landing aboard one of the "flying coffins" at Operation Market Garden. Robert Bowen saw a lot of action in World War II before he was badly injured and taken prisoner of war at the Battle of the Bulge. As a POW a badly injured Bowen was nearly strangled by an enraged German doctor as Bowen lay on his operating table. Back home, Bowen's young wife Christine never gave up hope that her husband was still alive, despite being told that he had been killed in action.
