Don Ogden was born May 21, 1924. He was a Tech Sergeant in the U.S.Army Air Corps. Mr. Ogden flew in a B-29 as a nose turret gunner. While his training stories are insightful, it is the story of his combat and prisoner experience that commands attention. Mr. Ogden’s story takes us through air battles, a war trial, into the depths of a prison camp and along a tragic death march. Original Air Date: 2008

Thank you Sgt. Ogden.

Wow! What a gut wrenching interview. Honest and forthright about what he went through. I hope he found peace.

This man’s story is typical of many of our heroes of WWII. They came home and tried to forget the madness and terror they experienced in a homeland that could never understand the psychological mental anguish they were replaying in their minds. Someone up there looked after him and his story should make us all reflect and appreciate his sacrifice for our country.

That was a hard story to watch! What a man to have survived through such tragedy! So, wish he could have gotten the mental help he so desperately needed and deserved! I'll never forget his story! He was a part of the Greatest Generation!!!

Must have been interviewed in the 80s. He'd be 98 now?

All Georgia in WWII interviews were conducted in 2007 or 2008. Thanks for watching!

Medical Marijuana Can Help Nightmares Big Time.! PTSD back in this guys time was not treated.! What a shame if he was never helped psychologically !!

My Grandfather was in Stalag Luft 3 in Poland. He was on the Long March too. Gave me an idea of the disgusting way germans treated POWs. We are so Blessed these Heroes fought for our Freedoms.

[@drbernstein3073]

His story makes no sense in a number of ways.

[@jeffn.918]

Tell us all how please...

[@andrewmugnolo3099]

Yeah, please enlighten us all on how his story doesn't make sense. Since you were obviously there with him.
