D-Day 80th Anniversary, Schoebel’s Raiders and Family History
On the 80th anniversary of D-Day, the family military histories of the hosts are detailed, specifically honoring Albert J. Schoebel. Schoebel, a German immigrant who arrived at Ellis Island in 1912, served in the Signal Corps and landed at Normandy, earning a Bronze Star. The account contrasts his service with the internment of Japanese-Americans and the South Pacific service of Lieutenant Commander Renwick Eugene Curry.
