VETERANS REMEMBER

Korean War   William & Charlotte Smith

William & Charlotte Smith
Bill and Charlottes interview focuses on their courtship and marriage, and the struggles they shared together because of Bill’s experiences while a POW. Shortly after their marriage, Charlotte learned just how challenging life would be as Bill continued to have medical problems, and lingering behavioral issues that stemmed from his POW experiences. Bill and Charlotte eventually wrote a book about Bill’s wartime experience entitled 'A Moment in Time.'
