Del Connell served during World War II as a Supply Clerk.  His ship was among those who picked up survivors of the Bataan Death March.  Del, who is now aged 101 and a half, recounts his story of receiving walking human skeletons on board and how he and the rest of his shipmates gave up their rations and berths to restore nutrition and comfort to these rescued Prisoners of War.Our library of shows can be found at www.veteranscornerradio.comJoin us on Facebook at the page Veterans Corner RadioYou can contact our host Joe Muhlberger at [email protected]
