I’d share a fox hole with him any day, I’f we were only young again. Hell, I could still shoot an M1 with accuracy.

This film about Mr Overton , who is amazing, is informative, and relaxing to watch and learn from…I looked on the web: Just a couple of sentences: Overton, an Army Sgt. during World War II never fails to give credit to The Almighty for his longevity.
This film about Sgt Overton, WW11, shows how amazing he is. Just to listen, watch and learn, is a treat. Prompting me to look further on the web, I copied this…for me this was important.

Richard’s philosophy is sound. I think he ”paid forward” when he went to war and deserves the admiration doubly, for going to defend other people in another country and living to be a great age. Patsy in Australia
