Against All Odds: Front Line Stories From World War Ii

Thursday, July 30, 2026 from 7 PM to 8:30 PM

Bestselling historian Alex Kershaw joins World War II veteran David Yoho for a powerful and deeply personal conversation on courage, sacrifice, and survival during history's greatest conflict. Drawing from Kershaw's acclaimed works chronicling the heroism of American soldiers and Yoho's firsthand experiences in wartime service, this program brings audiences to the front lines of World War II through unforgettable stories of combat, resilience, brotherhood, and duty. Together, they offer both historical insight and living testimony to the generation that helped preserve freedom in one of the defining struggles of the modern world.
