Howard Simon of New Jersey was a bombardier in B17's in WWII. On his 7th mission his plane was severely damaged by flak. By a stroke of luck they could glide to Sweden where he was interned for the rest of the war. Sweden was a neutral country but rules of war required downed crew to remain there. More at ME3TV.org

  • @blightsmite My Grandfather Only Had 2 Stories He Shared, Everything Else He Kept To Himself. Heroes That Have A Difficult Time Talking About The War, Had Most Likely Seen More Then The Average Soldier.

  • @iloveanime900 he said freedom of the country

  • Nice having a great interview by a bombardier.

  • nice video...I had an uncle in the European theater who was an MP so not as exciting as this guys story.

  • he said Malmoe. A town in southern sweden. In swedish Malmö.

  • whats the city or place he said at 02:48?

  • These videos are truly priceless. Kudos for your efforts.

    My Great Uncle won't talk about his experiences in North Africa, Italy and Germany. Maybe now that his health is deteriorating more rapidly.
