Bogdan Bartnikowski was born in 1932. During the Warsaw Uprising, he and his mother were expelled from their home. The Germans initially sent them to a transit camp in Pruszków, and then deported them to Auschwitz where they were separated. On January 11, 1945, both were evacuated to Berlin-Blankenburg, where they were imprisoned until their liberation on April 22, 1945. After this, they returned to Warsaw. Bogdan Bartnikowski is the author of memoirs, including "Childhood Behind Barbed Wire.” In the „On Auschwitz" podcast, we invite you to listen to an interview with Bogdan Bartnikowski about his wartime experiences.

Stephanie Harmon is the director for The Utah Honor Flight, an organization that provides healing trips for veterans to Washington DC.  It is a position where Stephanie feels the veterans give more to her than she could ever repay. Stephanie is a lover of American history, an advocate for our veterans, and a hardcore patriot.  When given the opportunity, she jumped at the chance to be in Normandy on the 80th Anniversary of D-Day. What Stephanie experienced in Normandy and its beaches was lifechanging.  Running her toes through the sand, something Stephanie finds solace in wherever she travels somewhere with a beach, became a totally different experience.   The ghosts of courageous men were almost palpable.  Stephanie felt the sacredness of Normandy.  She was connected to their fear, courage, and sacrifice. The American flag lined the streets of small villages as tributes to their heroes from long ago.  It was a reminder of the flag discord at home; how some Americans see little value in respecting and honoring our flag. Stephanie knows it is vital that parents and grandparents share with their families the value of American pride and patriotism.  The solution for what plagues our country does not begin in schools, it starts at home with family gatherings and dinners. Ridding ourselves of the seed of contempt for America must begin there. Honor our Veterans!  Honor Our Homes!  Honor Our Flag!  Honor America! https://www.facebook.com/utahhonorflight https://www.utahhonorflight.org/

Juno Beach was sandwiched between Gold and Sword, and was the responsibility of Canadian forces to secure. But in scenes reminiscent of Omaha Beach to the west, the Canadians came ashore in the face of withering German fire and suffered heavy casualties. What made Juno Beach such a deadly place to land on D-Day?In the final episode of our special series on the D-Day landings, Mat is joined by historian Mike Bechthold to tell the story of the landing at Juno Beach.Hosts: Mat McLachlan and Mike BechtholdProducer: Jess StebnickiSubscribe to listen to EVERY EPISODE NOW in this special series!

The 80th Anniversary of the D-Day invasion included many reenactment jumps, but none as visually captivating as the one in Mont St. Michel. A jump that featured multiple sorties of C-47s and some of America's most important leaders donning the battle uniform of our airborne predecessors. Included in this stick was Florida Congressman and fellow Green Beret Mike Waltz. After a quick exit and soft landing, Congressman Waltz spent some time with Fran Racioppi on the drop zone to talk D-Day, World Order and the current state of Congress. With Mont-Saint Michel in the background, and jumpers still falling, they dug into our national security challenges in the Middle East, Ukraine and China; and how immigration policy is rapidly becoming the decisive issue. They also unpacked the need for professionalism in Congress, how polarization is affecting getting things done and what we can expect from our political leaders as we gear up for an election cycle that looks more like a night combat jump with high winds and a small drop zone. Take a listen, watch, or read our conversation from one of the most surreal spots on the globe then head over to our YouTube channel to as we share the lineage of America's first Special Forces in the Jedburgh Media Channel's first documentary, Unknown Heroes, Behind Enemy Lines at D-Day, the story of Operation Jedburgh.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (06/06/2024): 3:05pm- To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day, President Joe Biden spoke in Normandy, France on Thursday. However, he used the occasion to emphasize the importance of Western countries supporting Ukraine militarily and financially—and bizarrely did so by talking about how many Russian troops have been killed in the ongoing war. 3:20pm- On June 6th, 1984, Ronald Reagan delivered a speech from Normandy to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Allied forces invading Nazi occupied France on D-Day. During his “Boys of Point du Huc” address, President Reagan stated: “We're here to mark that day in history when the Allied armies joined in battle to reclaim this continent to liberty. For four long years, much of Europe had been under a terrible shadow. Free nations had fallen, Jews cried out in the camps, millions cried out for liberation. Europe was enslaved, and the world prayed for its rescue. Here in Normandy the rescue began. Here the Allies stood and fought against tyranny in a giant undertaking unparalleled in human history.” You can watch the full speech here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTLVIp1AjAg&t=125s 3:40pm- - Dave McCormick—Republican Candidate for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania & former Under Secretary of the Treasury for International Affairs during the George W. Bush Administration—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss President Joe Biden's new border policy, Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) being unconcerned about biological males competing in female sports, and a volunteer for McCormick's campaign being assaulted by an anti-Israel protester while on University of Pittsburgh's campus. You can learn more about his campaign here: https://www.davemccormickpa.com 4:05pm- In a new op-ed for Fox News, New York Times best-selling author Jack Carr commemorates General Dwight D. Eisenhower's 1944 “Order of the Day” memorandum—a letter given to Allied forces the night of June 5, 1944, before the invasion of Nazi occupied France. You can read the full editorial here: https://www.foxnews.com/lifestyle/jack-carrs-eisenhower-d-days-memo-noble-undertaking 4:10pm- Don't miss 1210 WPHT's next Politics and Pints with New York Times best-selling author Jack Carr—hosted by Rich! Tuesday, June 25th from 7:30 to 8:45pm ET at Zlock Performing Arts Center Bucks County Community College in Newtown, Pennsylvania. You can find more information and tickets here: https://www.audacy.com/1210wpht/events/politics-and-pints-with-jack-carr 4:20pm- Rich plays audio from an NBC radio broadcast dating back to June 6th, 1944. The broadcast broke the news that Allied forces had invaded Nazi occupied France. 4:40pm- The New York Times has targeted Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito whose wife flew an upside-down American flag in response to a confrontation with a neighbor displaying a political message with an expletive. The flag was intended to be a distress signal following the conflict. Alito has also been criticized by the left for having flown an “Appeal to Heaven” flag from his shore house in New Jersey—with the left arguing it's an insurrectionist symbol. However, the flag is associated with George Washington and John Locke and remains the official maritime flag of Massachusetts. UPDATE: Alito's neighbor is now speaking to the press—and she's just as weird as we were imagining, even conceding that she cursed at Alito's wife. 5:05pm- Gunnery Sergeant for the U.S. Marine Corps Jessie Jane Duff—2024 Campaign Executive Director of Veterans for Trump & Ambassador for America First Policy Institute—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to breakdown President Joe Biden's disastrous appearance in Normandy, France during Thursday's commemoration of the 80th anniversary of D-Day. Plus, as a Marine, Duff explains how important it is to remember the sacrifices made on D-Day to preserve our inherent freedoms and self-governance. 5:20pm- Rich hears from listeners who had family members and loved ones who fought on D-Day. 5:30pm- House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) is baselessly, and ridiculously, claiming Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL) suggested Jim Crow laws were beneficial to Black Americans. Rep. Donalds (R-FL) was on The Rich Zeoli Show earlier this week vociferously condemning Jim Crow laws. Rep. Jeffries is simply promoting falsehoods. 5:45pm- While speaking with Newsmax, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump noted that his campaign has raised an enormous sum of money—primarily via small donations—following the conclusion of his “hush money” trial where a jury found him guilty of 34 counts relating to falsifying business records during his 2016 presidential campaign. Trump's legal team will appeal the verdict.  6:05pm- To commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day, President Joe Biden spoke in Normandy, France on Thursday. However, he used the occasion to emphasize the importance of Western countries supporting Ukraine militarily and financially—and bizarrely did so by talking about how many Russian troops have been killed in the ongoing war. 6:15pm- While appearing on MSNBC, Jen Psaki reacted to Joe Biden's executive order designed to stem the flow of unlawful migration at the U.S. Southern border—explaining that the president needed to do something in order to cover a “political vulnerability.” Meanwhile, on Meet the Press NOW, Chuck Todd notes that he believes the way the executive order was rolled out almost certainly guarantees Biden will gain nothing politically: “they did it in a way to get minimum political gain, and actually maximum political pain.” 6:30pm- Ryan Saavedra of The Daily Wire writes: “President Joe Biden's war on the oil and gas industry has cost the United States more than a quarter of a trillion dollars in lost economic activity…The Committee to Unleash Prosperity released the findings of its study to The Daily Wire after U.S. oil production under Biden has failed to reach the same trend line regarding rate of growth that was achieved under former President Donald Trump. While the U.S. is currently producing more oil than ever before, it is only slightly higher than the U.S. was producing in 2019, prior to the coronavirus pandemic.” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/bidens-war-on-oil-and-gas-has-cost-the-u-s-250-billion-in-lost-gdp-study 6:40pm- While speaking with MSNBC, Secretary of State Antony Blinken seemed to outlandishly compare President Joe Biden to the brave American soldiers that stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. 6:50pm- On June 6th, 1984, Ronald Reagan delivered a speech from Normandy to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Allied forces invading Nazi occupied France on D-Day. During his “Boys of Point du Huc” address, President Reagan stated: “We're here to mark that day in history when the Allied armies joined in battle to reclaim this continent to liberty.

President Biden uses speech in Northern France to liken Ukraine's struggle against Russia to the fight to defeat Nazi Germany in the Second World War. We bring you the best reportage and analysis from BBC correspondents in London and around the world. Also in this podcast: Nepal says it has removed eleven tonnes of rubbish from popular Himalayan climbing routes during this year's clean-up campaign, and a week after Donald Trump was convicted of falsifying business records, the former president has had some good news from the courts - a more serious criminal case against him in the state of Georgia has been paused.

80TH D-DAY: DOCTOR "WIN THE WAR" AS POTUS 1936: 3/8: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal by  David Pietrusza  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Roosevelt-Sweeps-Nation-Landslide-Triumph/dp/1635767776 Award-winning historian David Pietrusza boldly steers clear of the pat narrative regarding Franklin Roosevelt's unprecedented 1936 re-election landslide, weaving an enormously more intricate, ever more surprising tale of a polarized nation; of America's most complex, calculating, and politically successful president, Franklin D.

With in-depth examinations of rabble-rousing Democratic US Senator Huey Long and his assassination before he was able to challenge FDR in '36; powerful, but widely hated, newspaper baron William Randolph Hearst, who blasted FDR's “Raw Deal”; wildly popular, radical radio commentator Father Coughlin; the steamrolled passage of Social Security and backlash against it; the era's racism and anti-Semitism; American Socialism and Communism; and a Supreme Court seemingly bent on dismantling the New Deal altogether, Roosevelt Sweeps Nation is a vivid portrait of a dynamic Depression-Era America. 1936 FDR AT CCC

80th D-DAY: DOCTOR "WIN THE WAR" FDR AS A YOUNG MAN:  2/8: 1920: The Year of the Six Presidents by  David Pietrusza  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/1920-Year-Presidents-David-Pietrusza/dp/0786721022 The presidential election of 1920 was one of the most dramatic ever. For the only time in the nation's history, six once-and-future presidents hoped to end up in the White House: Woodrow Wilson, Warren G. Harding, Calvin Coolidge, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Herbert Hoover, and Theodore Roosevelt. It was an election that saw unprecedented levels of publicity -- the Republicans outspent the Democrats by 4 to 1 -- and it was the first to garner extensive newspaper and newsreel coverage. It was also the first election in which women could vote. Meanwhile, the 1920 census showed that America had become an urban nation -- automobiles, mass production, chain stores, and easy credit were transforming the economy and America was limbering up for the most spectacular decade of its history, the roaring '20s. Award-winning historian David Pietrusza's riveting new work presents a dazzling panorama of presidential personalities, ambitions, plots, and counterplots -- a picture of modern America at the crossroads. 1904 FDR AT HARVARD
