KT Robbins, WWII Veteran - Celebrating 250 (REPLAY from 11/6/23)

Imagine the year is 1941 and you awake to the news that Pearl Harbor has been attacked.  Now your country has been pulled into a World War that has cost so many their lives.  As a young male during those times, the thought of serving their country was never a second thought.  Young people even forged their age in order to enlist and go serve.  Fighting for America was a thing of honor and sacrificing their life for future generations was something so many of our service members did without a minutes consideration. This weeks guest proudly signed up and was eager to serve his country at a very young age.  Mr. Robbins enlisted as an infantryman and was heading off to Normandy for the big D-day invasion.  The moment that changed his entire story came when he saw the opportunity to become a chief.  So, instead of being a part of the initial wave of soldiers that hit the beach his boat stayed off shore for 4 days.  By the time his company was allowed to make shore there were already hundreds of dead soldiers lining the beach.  Mr. Robbins and his crew made entry into France and it wasn’t long before he settled into the town of Briea.   This is where our story really begins!  What happens next is something straight out of a blockbuster romantic movie.  KT falls in love with a young French girl and the rest is something you have to hear for yourselves.  I would do it no justice trying to describe the events that happened next.  Spoiler alert…I might have shed a tear or two, but they were most certainly happy tears.   👉 SPONSOR THIS PODCAST -  https://bit.ly/443wPRj You can find the Motivate with Coach Camp Podcast on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, TikTok, and Facebook Produced by Derrick Michaud and SRP Studios Podcasting
