One of our longest, one of our best, one of our favorite programming partners for yet another what i know will be a compelling presentation. These guys are money, as many of you know, and were so fortunate and privileged to be associated with them. Tonight, we welcome david mills of the command general Staff College and kayla westra of the Minnesota West Community and technical college, the coauthors of great wartime escapes and rescues. Ill start by saying they had me in grade school. I was a fourth grader i think when hollywood released the great escape, the classic adventure drama staring Steve Mcqueen, james garner, charles bronson, among others. It pretty quickly became a tv staple, and all of the guys in my class at st. Josephs Elementary School in martingsburg, missouri, fell in love with it and we would play it out at recess. Each one of us would take one of the roles. Of cours
