D-Day Survivor

THE PATRIOT'S DAUGHTER! A motorist shares the story of her father’s heroic actions on D-Day. Judge Frank Caprio #CaughtInProvidence #JudgeCaprio

[@ssc4153]

My father enlisted at the age of 14 and served in WWII and the Korean war. He never talked about it....ever. It just so happened that my father, my son and I took an Amtrak all the way across the country and we just so happened to be in Washington DC on the day they were dedicating the WWII memorial. There were hundreds of older gentleman there who served in that war and I was able to witness my father heal that day. He was able to talk to men he never knew, I saw my father cry for the first time in my life. These brave men insured our freedom and sacrificed so much that we will never be able to pay them back. My father has since passed away, and I have a picture of him in uniform. I want to say thank you to all the men who served and died to ensure that I would be able to live and be free in the country that is my home. Thank you!

[@laceandwhisky]

With you and us remembering them and what they did is the greatest reward they could of hoped for we have peace and I hope democracy we should hold dear. Yes thank you for what they did, I understand as I was also in the Royal navy in the 70's - 2000

[@DannyO.Garcia]

Thanks to your father, my dad also was in Korea. He never talked about it neither, he got out and they gave him a job picking tomatoes. His records burned in a fire and had to fight to get his pay but he got it. Hes gone now too God bless our soldiers.

My Father WWII 9th Army 8th armored Division Landed on Omaha Beach D-Day on June 6, 1944. First town St Glees, on to St Lo, in his words they got the sh-t kicked out of them in St Lo. Fought in the Battle of The Bulge where he carried two GIs under heavy fire to safety, he received the Medal of The Silver Star award in May of 45 for doing so. He passed away 12/2002.

Judge Caprio is a wonderful human being and a wise man of love and compassion ❤️ And inspectors Quinn and Carrigan are warm-hearted too ... God bless them all!

[@prlidg]

Amen to that! I almost wanted to say "I love to watch this show", but that would have been an injustice. These are real-life proceedings with a judge so very compassionate, and real people sharing their story with those at the court, and in fact with all of us. Even though I am living at a far distance from the USA, I very much appreciate seeing such a compassionate judge spread humanity with a global reach. Thank you!

I didn't cried...... but damn that was a close call. John Rush wherever you are THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

[@deeannbeine3398]

I was so touched by the Judge's talk about how patriotism has changed. All 3 of my husband's Uncles were in the wars, 1 died in the clean up at Pearl Harbor, 1 was in the battle of Bastone and lost half of both feet and almost his whole platoon and the 3rd never spoke of his battles because he felt enough horror had happened to his only brothers. There mother flew her 3 stars so proudly even though there was so much pain. I only wish more families instilled family values and patriotism in their homes. It would be such a better America and I love my country as my dad also fought for her. Blessings and many thanks to ALL of those who protect us each and every day.

[@walterscrv]

Thank you for sharing that.

[@darincarter7098]

I love this! My father in law was the same 2 tours in vietnam. He talked to me because I am a veteran. It was very emotional when the person we hired to take care of him took him to see We where soldiers he burst into tears and left the theatre. People just don't understand what veteran's go through. My heart still breaks when I remember the stories he told me. God bless him for what he did for our country. Love you Dad "John" I truly appreciate what you do God Bless You!

[@tjdacatlady1920]

My father and several uncles were in the Army during WWII. One of my youngest uncles was in the 442nd in Europe. The stories he told me were nothing like you see in the movies. NEVER FORGET THE GREATEST GENERATION.

I'm not from the US I'm British however I did go to one of your fine Universities to do my Master's Degree ( Cornell University ) my Late Grandfather was one of the first Special Forces in the UK he was in the First Special Service Brigade SOE Commando they later became 1 Commandos, they where at D-day as well they landed at Sword Beach. To all of the Allied Troops who died on D-day and those who have passed away since Thank You for giving us a free democratic world to live in. RIP to you all.

[@miriamreiss]

I visited the beaches of Normandie where D-Day took place so long a ago and as a veteran I can't believe that people have crossed these beaches while beeing under heavy machinegun fire or all that other stuff that has been in the air these days. And I can truely understand that they couldn't have stand the opening scene of that movie when they have been there. I served in the german army and I sure know what a terrible weapon that MG42 was, cause we used the same decades later and in part, it's still in service today. Only to cross the beaches, if you ever saw them, at low tide was the most heroic act I can ever imagine. Thank you all for your service to liberate Europe and the oportunity to a free and democratic life. Greetings and a salute from Germany.

[@deloresfrancisco-reeves9176]

My Uncle Harvey S. Olson was the first person to step on the shore in Normandy. He received the Silver Star and was promoted to Sergeant Harvey S. Olson. Army. My father and his three brothers fought in WWII. Uncle Harvey fought through WWII and the Korean War and was in for 35 years.

[@YvaJStoryTime]

My best friend and I were in Paris in 2019 and we met a gentleman at the top of the Eifel Tower who had served in WW2. He was a very kind hearted man and my friend (who is a bit more open than me about going up and talking to strangers) approached him and spoke to him. In the end, I got to meet him and we took pictures with him and exchanged stories. It was a very memorable day and one I will not ever forget. My great uncle was at Pearl Harbor when that happened, but he never spoke about it and I never felt inclined to ask, perhaps because I never wanted to bring up tragic memories in others.

[@jro6070]

This one got me hard. Makes me remember all the stories that both my grandfathers told me about WW2. One Master Seargent of Arms in the Army and the other was Seaman First Class aboard The USS Griffin and tender ships in the Navy. Miss those awesome men ! They were always so humble for what they went through and done for us.

[@millertime6672]

Both my grandfathers were in ww2. They didn’t like to talk about it much and often shed a tear when asked questions about it. The one fought on the island of the Philippines and New Guinea. Listening to them stories of his and looking at some of his old pictures he took on the islands all you can do is think DAMN.

[@hopeinparis]

The judge does a great honor to those who served in WW2 by remembering what they endured, which was so horrific. I was so deeply moved when the Judge dismissed the case.
