This episode was posted a week before June 6th, 2022 which marked the 78th anniversary of the D-Day landings. In honor of the enormous sacrifice by the many men and women who fought, planned, and supported that battle, today the history guy tells three lesser-known tales of heroism and sacrifice, just a few of the many meaningful stories of those first days in the battle to crack fortress Europe. First, the history guy tells the story of two D-day medics, Robert Wright and Kenneth Moore, who spent those days saving lives. Then the history guy will tell the oft-forgotten story of the Coast Guard’s contribution to the massive invasion. Finally, the History Guy will talk about the US Rangers and the 116th Infantry Regiment.
