The Warrior Next Door Podcast

Co-hosts Tony and Ryan dug DEEP into their archives and share the second interview they ever conducted as volunteers for the Library of Congress. It was February of 2003 when they interviewed Frank DeCicco Jr., who served as a waist gunner in B-17s during WW2.
Join us as Frank recalls providing first aid to wounded airmen on his bomber, demonstrates how our P-38s and P-51s protected the bomber stream, and the gruesome story of combat in the 8th Air Force over Europe.
