This is World War II on Topic: Veteran Voices. This episode is brought to you by the Museum's Education Department and The Jenny Craig Institute for the Study of War & Democracy. In April 2020, Dr. Tyler Bamford, who was serving as the Institute's Leventhal Research Fellow, had a conversation with Museum Volunteer and World War II Veteran, Steve Ellis. Steve served in the US Navy from 1944 to 1946 aboard LST-751. He took part in the campaigns to liberate the Philippines and survived Japanese Kamikaze attacks. Here he recounts those harrowing experiences. If you would like to view the original conversation, you can see it here: https://youtu.be/K3tQii64-W0
