George Sims: WWII Veteran

Mr. Sims and his daughter share memories from WWII. George was in the infantry assigned to the 10th Armor Division, and had to go house-to-house in Germany after the surrender to root out any remaining resistance.

This video was produced by WOSU Public Media as part of ohiowarstories.org. It was created with the generous assistance of the Longaberger Foundation, and videotaped by students from Newark High School in Ohio.
