About this listen

 Lieutenant Philip Ralph Harris left his family’s Wisconsin farm to serve his country in a time of great uncertainty. He flew across the vast Pacific, over open ocean and into danger, carrying out his duty with courage and quiet determination. On May 10, 1945, he gave his life in service—far from home, but never forgotten.
More than 421,000 Americans gave their lives in World War II. Each one was more than a name—they were sons and daughters, husbands and wives, friends and neighbors. Each left behind a family forever marked by a gold star.
This podcast exists to ensure their stories are never forgotten. By preserving the lives, sacrifices, and legacies of the fallen, we honor their memory and help future generations understand the true cost of freedom.
