      The veteran’s name is Melvin Hurwitz, 493rd Bomb Group, 863rd Bomb Squad, 8th Air Force.

      He was born on March 12, 1925 in Baltimore, Maryland. He started college in Nashville, Tennessee but soon after joined the U.S. Army. He attended basic training in Greensboro, North Carolina and then to the Army Air Corps training centers around the country assigned as a radio gunner on a B-17 “Flying Fortress.” Serving with the 863rd Bomb Squadron, 493rd Bomb Group, 8th Air Force, it was the last bomb group assigned to the “Mighty 8th” in the war. Melvin’s B-17 was nicknamed “Disorganized Confusion” and flew 4 combat missions. However, his plane participated in the dropping of food supplies to the starving Dutch civilians and flew returning French prisoners of war from Austria. Arriving back in the United States, the crew began B-29 training in preparation for the ongoing war in Japan. While awaiting orders to the Pacific, the war ended.

      I love this video. The look Zelensky gets when the gentleman says ‘I pray for you’.

      During WWII a president Trump would have told Churchill to stop acting like a ‘tough guy ‘.

      These are the Americans I like. Those who understand the difference between good and evil.

      This guy risked his life for the freedom of others.

      Trump had… Bone spurs in one leg or the other.

      Why are the worst americans running their country, when there are so many amazing people in that country?

      Just wondering – it seems the press has very recently changed the spelling for Zelensky to add an additional “Y” at the end. So now its Zelenskyy – anyone else noticed this ? Anyone know why ? Which is correct ?

      It’s odd. Weren’t there Ukrainian soldiers defending the beach?

      Before you down vote, the answer is yes.

      I would consider giving my life, if we could have leaders in the White House like these men.

      Wow there are still d-day vets among us. I dont what to say. This guy survived d-day and he is 100 years old now.

    15. blue__nick on

      Doesn’t the vet know that Zelensky is a president? Why didn’t he wear a suit?

      I hope he at least had a tie on during d-day.

      I find it impossible not to admire President Zelensky. I can’t even conceptualize striving to be an entertainer and being thrown into presiding over a whole country. He is quite impressive.

      My ex is in the airline industry and they hold various ceremonies for our veteran heroes. I’m so very honored every time I meet them.

      What a time to be witness to such glorious moments!
