[Audio Podcast] US Navy LCDR Edouard Izac - WWI POW and Medal of Honor Recipient

LCDR Izac was taken prisoner by the Germans during WWI where he was able to gather intelligence during confinement. He never gave up and made numerous escape attempts before being successful. I am honored to tell you his story.
