Here's Episode #9 of Till Victory (a podcast about WWII and Peace)! Leo Brown, a Sergeant in F Company, 359th Infantry Regiment, 90th Infantry Division "Tough Ombres", is one of the 50+ soldiers honored in Till Victory. To celebrate the worldwide release of the book, here's his whole story and letters read by the author, followed by a fascinating conversation with the veteran's daughter Leota and son-in-law Randal. We'll talk about his gruesome experience of Normandy and the PTSD that troubled him all his life, what a fantastic man Leo was, and what set the "Greatest Generation" apart!

Clément Horvath, French author of "Till Victory : the Second World War By Those Who Were There" talks in this new series of podcasts with WWII veterans and their families about their war stories, the heritage of World War 2 and the future of peace. Clément's latest book is the English version of his award-winning "Till Victory, lettres de soldats alliés", a best seller in France focusing on frontline letters from war-torn Europe, and the result of 15 years of research. The book was published in November 2020 by Pen & Sword Books (in the UK & Europe) and by Casemate in the US and Canada in January 2021. It is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or your can order it from your favorite bookstore ! Just don't buy the ebook version that I was not involved with, Till Victory is supposed to be read on paper...
