About This Podcast
This podcast features an interview with 101 year old WWII veteran Casey Bukowski, who served as a waist gunner on a B‑17 flying out of Ridgewell Airfield in 1944. He also recounts his experiences as a prisoner of war and the brutal 86‑day forced march he endured before his liberation in 1945. I also highlight the Ridgewell Airfield Museum in Essex, UK, and explore the history of the area with Sarah Allen, a chairperson at the museum.
