Words don't do it justice. Captain Luckadoo's amazingly detailed recall of his experience from almost 80 years prior speaks of course to his enduring health but also how those events were burned into his being. His willingness to share such detailed memories are so precious. To hear Captain Luckadoo relate his experience with such clarity mixed with deserved seriousness as well as humor is beyond description. We owe SO MUCH to this generation who, as citizen soldiers, preserved our nation's future...our present day. May God bless Captain Luckadoo and all of his peers. We should NEVER forget....

I'm always impressed by strong storytellers. More often than not they're from this man's generation. It's a dying art.

What a wise old man. Just incredible to hear his memories and thoughts. And it's astonishing how increadibly clear thinking he still is at the age of a 100, he could be 50 years old. I am glad he got a 100 years for everything he did for all of us. Thank you, Lucky.

This Gentleman survived because he was needed to narrate his and all the other’s experiences that were there .
