The Rifle: Stories From the Last WWII Veterans | History Traveler Episode 324
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sM12FtYbJ2Q
When Andrew Biggio returned home from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, he started to learn the story of his namesake uncle who had been killed in WWII. The letters of his uncle compelled him to go get an M1 Garand that would go on to become the object that hundreds of other WWII veterans would tell their story through. In this episode, we’re paying a visit to Andrew Biggio, who went on to write “The Rifle” and “The Rifle 2”, to learn a little bit more behind the story of a unique M1 Garand.
