Welcome to the America’s Veterans Stories podcast. Kim Monson is your host. Growing up in the 1930s in Memphis, Tennessee, Phil Larimore was the ultimate Boy Scout—able to read maps, use a compass, and traverse wild swamps and desolate canyons. His other great skill was riding horses. Landing on the Anzio beachhead in February 1944, Larimore was put in charge of an Ammunition Pioneer Platoon in the 3rd Infantry Division. Their job: deliver ammunition to the frontline foxholes. Dr. Walt Larimore discusses his father’s story told in his book At First Light. _________________________________________________ Copyright 2023: America’s Veteran’s Stories Visit us at www.americasveteransstories.com America’s Veteran’s Stories
