One interesting aspect about this program are the interviews.

I know a man who was in Europe during WWII.

After a few weeks of being around while I painted his house, he told me a story about working in the motorpool and having to recover a jeep that had broken down.

He went on about being sniped at and shooting the soldier in the tree who was firing at him.

He stopped and got the 'far away look' in his eye.........

I told him that it sounded pretty scary.

I then thought to myself, "Jeez, I wonder what he is thinking."

I guess he knew what I was thinking.

"He is probably still in that tree, I didn't stop to see, we got the heck out of there", he said.

To this day I think about the matter of fact way he told the story. After some more thought, I had to remind myself that this guy was being shot at.

Maybe, in the years since the incident he was able to put the it into perspective.

I don't know, but these men are national treasures and do deserve an audience.
