Summary
World War II combat veteran Robert Kotlowitz and former fighter pilots Ed Mechenbier and Ron Bliss on this edition of Fresh Air. Robert Kotlowitz has written about his experiences in Before Their Time: A Memoir. Kotlowitz was part of a platoon that was ordered to charge the German front, an order that killed all but three men. His previous books included: The Boardwalk, His Master's Voice, Sea Changes, and Somewhere Else. During the Vietnam War, former fighter pilots Ed Mechenbier and Ron Bliss were both shot down, and became POWs in Hanoi. They are featured in the 1999 documentary Return with Honor. The film was made by Freida Lee Mock and Terry Sanders, the team that made the Oscar-winning film, Maya Lin: A Strong Clear Vision. (Original Broadcast Dates: July 27, 1999 and July 26, 2000)
