WWII On-the-Job Training: An Oral History

  • Summary

  • 104-year old veteran Captain George P. Sotos never expected to be part of a massive war when he first entered the U.S. Navy. But he arose to the occasion, accepting every assignment that was given to him as the second World War erupted for the U.S. Making his way to the Atlantic Ocean, Captain Sotos learned valuable lessons from on-the-job experiences that he shares with Ann and James on this episode of VoS.
