POW Frank Reed escaped
Hi all! I was told you may be able to help me. I have been very angry at the lack of respect and recognition our war heroes have received, and it really came to a head when I was doing genealogy and could find no reference to my great uncle Francis L. Reed he stormed the beaches of Normandy, was a POW after being shot down from a glider and escaped prison camp. How can I find out about his career? The only thing I know about it is from family stories. He came back to Kansas started a career in drinking (was very successful I hear) and miserably drank himself to death. No acknowledgement of his accomplishments or records . Can anyone help me find information on my great uncle's career? He should be honored for his bravery and service to this country. Thank you
