You have to hear his amazing story of luck and survival.

Private Timberlake was captured shortly after the Battle of the Bulge in the freezing snowbound forests of France in January 1945. He will tell his stories of being a POW in Stalag 5A Malschbch Ludwigsburg, his forced march across southern Germany as the war was ending, and being shot at by American P51 fighter planes.

We will be joined in the studio by his daughter Patricia Turk (retired United States Air Force).
