Stories from the Greatest Generation: William F. "Bud" Liebenow

submitted by Shoreline on 04/10/18 1

Watch and listen to the captivating story of William F. "Bud" Liebenow, PT Boat Commander of PT 157 in the Pacific and PT 199 in the Atlantic. Imagine being 23 years old in charge of an 80 foot heavily armed boat that will do over 60mph, chasing Japanese destroyers in the dark of night. Imagine also that you were responsible for rescuing possibly the most famous PT boat in history: PT109 and her commander John F. Kennedy. These are just some of the stories you will hear Bud tell in this video, and you will come to understand why men like him are indeed, The Greatest Generation. Mr. Liebenow has since passed and we were very fortunate to have met such an amazing man. Rest in Peace.
