We feature Al Johnson, who served with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) during WWII. Al was a member of Operations Group (OG) Patrick and Blueberry who fought behind enemy lines in France and China, respectively, during WWII.
Of the 14 million+ servicemen who fought in WWII, only ~7,500 served as an OG with the OSS. This is a truly special and remarkable story!
In this episode, Al learns that he'll be part of OG Patrick and will land 400 miles behind enemy lines to join up with the French Resistance and capture a hydro-electric plant held by German forces!
