  • WWII German POW man 𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙣𝙤𝙬. Unbelievable story.
    How Wonderful a Man he is. You need to take time to watch this
    This 97 year old man was in the German POW camp, prison. Wasn't really a camp. Today May 27, he lives and is one of the happiest people you will meet, witty, has more funnies than you can remember and generous and his memory is like a 40 year old.

    The title of the video is misleading: He was not a "German POW", but an American POW in Germany

    My uncle my dad’s twin was a prisoner of war in Germany,their other brother had been killed in France on a bridge. My uncle would only tell him about one thing that happened to him.They put my dad in the Pacific so they couldn’t be captured and torture one to make the other talk. My dad’s company kept in touch and would have army reunions every couple years till they were in their 70’s and 80’s when they couldn’t travel from all their states to meet up anymore. The adults had a good times reminiscing and catching up, us kids also had fun with all the new friends we made.

    Wonderful interview. It may have been prudent to bleep Mr. Pickens' personal information.

      Thousands know him. He'll soon be 102 and most people would think he is 65

    I'm not a reporter but the interviewer let him loose, talk and choke for an hour and was not prepared to ask key questions that would advance the information. Did he marry? Does he have any family? What did he do throughout his long life?
