Back to the Battlefields
🕑 Added 2023-03-20 19:48:27 +0000 UTCMany of you may remember a fundraiser that I promoted awhile back to take 4 WWII veterans back to Europe. Well, that’s happening. Thought that I’d share a few pictures. This is Ed Cottrell, who flew 65 missions in a P-47 and Bud Haedike, who was a bombadier on a B-17. Also pictured is Andrew Biggio, who wrote The Rifle. I likely won’t post anything publicly until we get back but I’ll throw some updates on here as the trip progresses.

Wow. This is so amazing. Thank you for doing this for such deserving gentlemen.
in order to be a worldchanger, you gotta be a worldhealer. thanks for stiching time and space.
This is such a great thing! The Rifle was a book that was hard to put down. It made me appreciate this generation even more. Looking forward to Rifle 2 & your video of this trip.
CAN’T WAIT! Safe travels!
This is awesome. I just finished "The Rifle" and loved it. What you are doing and what Biggio did with that book are just great things.
What an incredible experience that must be. Enjoy this moment
Awesome, glad we could help these veterans from the greatest generation get over there. 🫡
Great Job! Enjoy!
Thank you for sharing these pictures, looking forward to hearing all about it. My father served and I see him in these men, what a generation they were!
