OUR MISSION:
On a mission to interview WWII heroes daily, to raise awareness of their enormous sacrifices, and to provide a living memorial for their families and the world.
Go to our website for more info : www.heroesofthe...
All the WWII veterans are in their 90’s and every day 650 WWII veterans die. We have a responsibility to document their experiences so that such a devastating war will never happen again and so that those brave men did not die in vain.
Founded in 2016, Heroes of the Second World War is a nonprofit 501©(3) organization. (EIN/tax ID number: 81-3064351). 100% of Heroes of the Second World War’s expended resources are devoted entirely to interviewing interview with the majority of money going to travel costs.
This was my great uncle. The sweetest, kindest man. Hilarious as well. He and my grandfather both served. ♥️
Your lucky to have known him we all owe men like him our freedoms and so much more...God bless America and God bless this man
You so blessed to have such a amazing uncle ♥️♥️♥️♥️
He really seems like he would be a joy to talk with. He's got all that folksy wisdom and subtle jokes.
It's men like your great uncle that make me proud to have served in the 3rd Infantry Division!! ROCK OF THE MARNE!!!👍✌😎

Seeing him in his uniform and looking at his photos is touching. This man is a true patriot! He is to be honored, respected and thanked. Thank you for you service Sir! You’re amazing!
This man hit the nail on the head! I’ve said this for years. 2 years of service after high school. I think our society would be better off with that concept.
Bless you sir and all vets including my WW2 vet father
I’d be absolutely useless in the military. Especially right out of high school lol
I love that he’s wearing his original uniform. Seeing the same man that possibly wore that uniform in Europe during WW2 wear it now it just has a different presence then seeing the uniform on a mannequin or a re-enactor. That man earned every medal on his chest
Thanks for watching this video! If you have not already we would very much appreciate it if you would consider subscribing for the channel to help these important stories reach a wider audience. We are aiming to 50,000 subscribers this week and you can help us reach that!
@@RememberWW2 absolutely subbed and turned on the bell, man I wish we had more time with these great men, thank you for the work your doing
@@RememberWW2 what happened to his brother
What a lovely man. Thank you for bringing his story to us
Thank you Mr Sugg for your amazing story of selfless sacrifice, I’m very grateful. You will be missed by all those you have touched in this world and it sounds like there were many!
I love the way he speaks! His laugh is adorable and he’s very funny too. “Two sticks with a sucker on each of em for a penny!” Thank you, Sir, for your service. Though I am seeing this 5 yrs later, it was my pleasure to listen. ❤
this man is amazing! Thank you for your service Mr. Sugg, god bless you!
take note ppls, he's 93 and does push-ups/sit-ups every morning, thats what Tuff looks like right there!
Thanks for watching! Please consider subscribing for more WWII veteran interviews!
Thank you for getting these amazing men's stories. So their stories will never be forgotten. Y'all should have millions of subscribers. Damn fine job..damn fine
Great stories. A true hero too! I would do well to even just aspire to his achievements.
these are a treasure
Thanks for watching! Please consider subscribing for more WWII veteran interviews!
Respect Sir and god bless you and your legacy forever.
I am only a kid, and I have always been fascinated by these ww2 vets. I am mostly fascinated with these men because of my own grandfather. He was a ww2 vet, died when I was only 6, and never ever spoke of his experiences. It has always been my dream to just interview a couple of these heroic figures, but I seem to have never gotten the chance. If there is anyway you could help connect me to some, that would be very much appreciated.
Ur not the only kid
There is contact information at Rishis main website.. he's pleading for help with interviews and donations.
Good luck with your interviews. I hope that you post them. I find the best interviews are when the interviewer asks the minimum amount of questions and just lets the subject talk. Of course, it’s good to ask for details or dates if the subject misses them. It is sad that in the next ten years all of these guys will be gone.
God bless you Mr Sugg and thank you for your service 🙏... You are a great man and I appreciate you sharing your story ❤. We need more men like you. Your uniform fits great and you look good in it. Another great interview Rishi. Thank you for all you do.
I love these...however...you repeat a great deal of the same questions...poor old man sat for 2.5 hours at least 1/3 rd was repetitive. Just a suggestion...create a general outline. I do respect and appreciate what you do my grandfather is 103....last February...wounded on Normandy Beach, US Army while digging in by enemy shrapnel. I'm proud of that man...not because of his dedication to this country, but his dedication to his family. God Bless.
Unfortunately he has ignored that suggestion from many people over the years on the way he conducts his interviews. On the other hand at least he has documented their stories before it’s too late and has done a rather good job.
Thank you Mr. Sugg for sharing your story and for your service to our country.
Thank you for doing and sharing these interviews. I listen to these while at work. Every one of these guy’s experiences could be made into a movie.
Thank you sir for interviewing the greatest generation and compiling their stories.
Thank you and God bless you Mr Sugg, you sure truly a hero to us that live under the umbrella of freedom you provided.
I could listen to these guys all day long sometimes I do. The best of the best and the reason America is free today. To bad the younger generation could care less and don't even know what was going on in the 40s.
Thank you Sir for your service to our wonderful Country during a time when Tyrants were trying to take over the world! We need these stories of courage and honor to be told by the Greatest Generation as we are sadly losing to many of these heroes at an alarming rate because of the age factors they’re reaching now.Always whenever you have an opportunity to say something to one of these iconic people please say thank you for your services because if it weren’t for them we’d all be eating rice or sauerkraut around here!!🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
NOW, I understand after watching this !! my mother-in-law and I always converse in "commanding voice" and not YELLING as I thought. Thank you. I feel much better.
I have friends in Germany that say lot of them was drafted and never want to fight
Thanks .
2021 Still Watching, These individual accounts are just as important as the WWII mainstream global recorded historic events. We should never forget these accounts from the individuals as it communicates the personal sacrifice, horror and endurance these men faced on a daily basis. Walk a mile in any one of these mens boots and war itself will become history.
Mr.. Sugg, you are so right!
These adults graduating today, even as far as 10 years ago, needs 2 years in the military! They need to be disciplined, learn respect, & most of all independence, the bible & pledge of allegiance along with prayer!
Yes, my parents taught me to play hound and the heir!
No prayer, no scripture. They need to learn science, which is provable.
@@swtbbyjms3806 1. I knew you would say this before I clicked "View Reply." Every time someone makes a comment referencing Christianity, the first reply is knee-jerk chastisement or mockery.
2. Every time a society abandons the tenets of the Bible, it degenerates: observe the state of Western civilization today. When God is abandoned, selfish, powerful, evil people rule. The Bible predicted the global totalitarianism we see arising (Rev 13:11-18).
3. There is real, valuable, provable, useful science - and then there is evolutionism. This hypothesis says that animals reproduce animals of other kinds, and scientists insist that that this is "fact," though it has never been observed. In the scientific method, you start with a hypothesis, then design and execute an experiment to test that hypothesis. Nobody has carried out an experiment in which they observed one species change into another species with a different body type. "Of course not," they say, "that takes millions of years." Well then, evolutionism is not subject to the scientific method, and so is not scientific.
The Bible says plants and animals reproduce their own kind (Gen 1:11,12,21,24,25), and this has been observed billions of trillions of times. If I hypothesize that two cats will reproduce more cats, I can test and verify that, ad infinitum. So which view is better supported by scientific, empirical evidence?
Even the foundation of evolutionism, abiogenesis (the notion that rocks spontaneously turn themselves into DNA, functioning cells, and thinking brains), is not proven. There is a $10 million prize on the table for the person who essentially proves the foundation of evolution - and the "proof" wouldn't even be proof, since it would necessarily involve intelligent (human, in this case) design.
The Bible says, "With God, all things are possible (Matt 19:26; Mark 10:27)." Evolutionists say, "With Time, all things are possible." Evolutionism is no more than a religion, with Time as its god, and evolutionary scientists and school teachers as its priests.
My father served in the third infantry division during World War II as well. And my father wore glasses as well all through the war.
This is a great American! God bless him!
Another great story of someone who served. I loved hearing his story - from youth/depression to war time... Seeing his ribbons and how old they are says alot. Love the accent. I like the photo of him as young man in frame. Nicely done.
Thankyou sir.
Thank You
..Sugg..""I was 100 yards from Audy Murphy ""..that was HOT..HOT..fire fight..a double appreciation for your brave action..amen..
Thank you sir for your service!🙏🇺🇸🎉
Thank you sir my hero God bless you sir
you ever wanna know what a HERO looks like? well this right here is what a true HERO looks like!!!
Love your videos. Is there any equipment you need? Thanks for preserving their stories
There is an area for donations at the main website. Rishi has to cover all his travel costs etc and we need to help him.
A nice Southern way to say someone is yelling at you, “They speak to you in a commanding voice.”
Still carrying a full ruck sack after all that, Anzio was a tough spot to be in. No envy here. God bless.
Thank you for your service.
good memory still..."learn to say yes sir no sir, and be compatible" ......wise.....wished he would have asked Raymond if he had any memories of Audie Murphy....
Hi ! Grandpa .i see in this video . I Love and Like grandpa i respect foryou 🙏🍁🌹♥️
A true hero
Once again, Ty for taking the time with these hero's and saving there legendary life stories!!!
Godbless
Thank you Mr.Sugg!
He *stepped* *on* a *mine* .
His Guardian Angel was right there with him.
I agree, two year’s services straight out of high school, everyone!!
Another WWII Hero 👏
These man are eally such amazing American warriors
A real man
Whoa! These southern brothers are tougher than a two dollar steak!
That's where "I owe my soul to the company store" comes from.
Living national treasures, each & everyone, breaks my heart how the communists in America are silencing their voices, disparaging their acts & the complete & utter contempt dumped upon the men who actually fought real nazis & millennial scum have the vile evilness to call these elders “nazis” for simply understanding the real world, I was partially raised/babysat by men & women just like this, I’m the kid who did bring a note to the corner grocery store for a pack a buglers, a fifth of rye, a ham hock for dinner soup & enough change for a couple candy bars & a soda, hard to believe that was 30 years ago & the war was 30 years before that time, I will always stand for them & kneel at the cross for them & NEVER mixup the two
Semper Fi
I agree with you fully EXCEPT the "millennial scum" part. Theyre an easy scape goat! If you wanna know whats wrong with kids today look no further than their parents. One thing ive noticed more than anything after getting a few years under my belt is how many grown ass people act no better than teenagers and are completely enraptured by childish things.
A question that I would ask is if he has watched and ww2 movies and which one comes closest to depicting his own experience and why ?
When I listen to a guy like this, it reinforces my life long belief that not all Americans are equal, in as "better thsn"
"worthless". Sure we are "americans" "default", illegal birth right, mindless.
I know this is true, from first hand knowledge. I was drafted into the Army I would not volunteer. I was side by side with soldiers who were bigger patriots MORE PATRIOTIC....... They Volunteered. Better Americans. We fought for each other just the same. But, I have always been aware of the fact. So this interview brings home the sickening reality of the low life worthless people in this administration.
Thank you for this interview. I like your interviews, I think yo give the best, you let the Vet talk.
I would like to say something, I know that the Vets in our PTSD Group at the VA HOSPITAL agree on thid.
"Thank you for your service" we know it is ment in a good way. I don't like it, it makes me.. Us feel guilty. The words mean nothing. I never felt like I was owed anything.
If I could be thanked, the only way in gods green earth would be to SHOW US VETS by your actions, and attude.
Thanks to me... Us dosen't get it from default wanna be citizens. When I see Americans acting like Americans THATS WHEN THE SACRIFICE becomes worth it to the living AND THE DEAD.
It should be required watching to every American under age 55
Does anyone know what his ribbon is on the last row, far left? Great interview!
"Oh, about 72" 😎
"I was a prisoner for 3/4 of a day!" Why didn't you tell me that?? "You didn't ask!" 😂
❤🇺🇸
Greatest generation
You got better near the end👍
Thank you for doing what you did so i can still speak English and not be Japanese or German
❤❤❤❤
I had a uncle on Anzio. He never talked about it..
“You haven’t covered that have you”
IS THIS THE PRESTON NORTH CAROLINA NEAR MUFRESBORO NORTH CAROLINA ?
Find someone from the 71st
❤Hahahaha. Ten miles and there's the sign This is the beginning of your 20 mile March hahahahahaha
I originally thought the soldier that got shot in the head was an American as well.
Iran is not anywhere near north Africa. He was confused about that. He is no doubt right about the local religion. Sounds like he got there after the Germans/Italians were driven out...There have been communities that dug large circular maybe twenty feet across open pits and excavated dwellings into the sides of the pits. These were cool in the daytime and warm at night. The pit made a nice patio with partial shade except at high noon. Not sure this is still being done or not.
He is saying Oran, not Iran.
14:17 on this video.IAGREE WHOLE HEARTEDLY!!!YES SIR,NO SIR,3 BAGS FULL,SIR.2 years IN THE MILITARY & MAKE IT MANDATORY!
Wow I wrote the other comment before I watched the last half.
All the damn commercials make it impossible to listen to the video. Otherwise, would have been interesting.
Thanks for listening. RUclips automatically puts them in unless I turn it off. You should not have any issues now!
YOU SHOULD ASK THESE GUYS HOW DOES OT FEEL TO HAVE A SET OF STEEL BALLS AT 93 , FOR REAL
Quit asking how it feels to be “etc “,93” etc.! It is humiliating and degrading! Also, DEVELOP your questioning technique! I had 7th graders that interviewed better in my Middle School speech class!
There are times Rishi is not exactly spot on but I would ask you to do some of these interviews. This is a labor of love for him and he's documented over 1000 of these so far. God bless him.
LOVE this man but DONT DRIVE!!! Thats worse than a drunk driver!
The enterviewer is a little short in intelligence
So is your spelling
A true hero
