We did it! After weeks and months of trying to make this a reality, I was able to secure an interview with a WW2 Veteran!
In this moving VE Day special, I sit down with the incredible Bert, a 100-year-old World War II veteran to hear his incredible story of service, sacrifice, and survival. From enlisting as a young man to witnessing the end of the war in Europe, his memories offer a powerful reminder of the courage and resilience of those who served.
As we mark Victory in Europe Day, this interview is a tribute to a generation that gave so much. His reflections are not just history — they are living testimony.
This video includes a mixture of illustrative footage and images representing Bert's experiences and actual photographs that he kindly provided.
If there was any video that deserved all of the love- it's this one ❤️
🎙️ Tonight's video is also exclusively featuring as a podcast episode in my podcast: Make Do and Mend. You can listen to it below via one of the podcast links.
