World War II was a pivotal moment in world history, when not only the survival of the United States was at stake, but of democracy throughout the world. Had the Allies lost WW II, fascism would have engulfed the world even as genocide would have robbed humanity of its diversity. WW II veterans live again through these short podcasts, which like the accompanying book of the same name, tell their incredible stories of valor and sacrifice. Each riveting podcast tells the story of WW II through the eyes of those who fought it. They were called the greatest generation for a reason.

Ep. 26 - Hattie Brantley - The Angel of Corregidor
Hattie Brantley never stopped tending to wounded GIs whether in the jungles of the Bataan peninsula, in the tunnels of Corregidor, or during her long imprisonment at the Santo Tomas Internment Camp. As a POW for nearly three years, she didn’t let starvation, disease, lack of medical supplies, or the brutal treatment she received from Japanese guards stop her in caring for the young GI casualties under her care. Today’s podcast tells the story of Hattie Brantley, better known as the Angel of Bataan. Special thanks to my wife, Christina Diane Ulferts, who will give voice to Hattie’s quotes in this episode.
