Jason and Brent listen to a fascinating tale told by 97 year old Field McChesney, a World War II radio operator whose B-17 was shot down during the bombing of Dresden.
He parachuted into a small German village, only to be taken as a POW in the last months of the war. This is a concise account of a young soldier's personal memories of his war experience. You can read more about McChesney's story at the American Air Museum in Britain website.
