LtCol Lee Ritter on WWII and Korea
Kay Ritter Grasso, LtCol Ritter’s daughter, and her husband “interviewed” her dad several times on camera to record his memories of his long career as he approached his 100th birthday on January 20, 2022. On 5 Jan 2023 she wrote, “I’ve finally been going thru my videos of Dad and thought I would share a couple. In the first one he talks about going to the Marshall Islands in WWII and then to Korea. He also mentions how he got involved with helicopters. The other is a story about how, as a pilot, he captured two prisoners in the Marshall Islands. Of course, his facts may be a bit confused, but we get the gist of it all. I hope you enjoy this and I will send more as I find more of his tales of his career.”
