Episode description

Much has been written through the decades about the wartime exploits of Leonard "Bud" Lomell, the Ocean Countyan whose bravery is universally credited with changing the fortunes of the Allies during D-Day. But he was more than an icon. He was a husband, a father, a reliable friend to those who knew him and a diligent pillar of his community who carried on his life with candor, wit and modesty.

In this initial episode of a multi-part tribute, join librarian Allie for an intimate discussion with an individual who knew him as no one else did - his daughter, Reneé Lomell.
