In this gripping episode, we dive into the remarkable story of two brave medics assigned to the 101st Airborne, Ken Moore and Robert Wright, who risked their lives during the fierce battles of Normandy in World War II. Amidst the chaos, they set up a makeshift aid station in a church displaying a prominent red cross, treating wounded soldiers from both sides of the conflict.
As the battle intensified and house-to-house combat erupted in the village, Moore and Wright found themselves with limited medical supplies, relying on their medic bags and the soldiers' pocket first aid kits. Despite the dire situation, their dedication to their duty remained unwavering. Venturing into the heart of the battleground, Ken Moore would put his life on the line, protected only by the red cross on his helmet and armband, to save the lives of those in need.
Witness the incredible acts of courage and humanity by these two medics who transcended the boundaries of war to save both friends and enemies alike. Through this awe-inspiring tale, we'll explore the power of compassion and the extraordinary lengths these men went to preserve life amidst the horrors of war. Don't miss this emotional journey into the past, as we honor the brave actions of Ken Moore and Robert Wright, the unsung heroes of Normandy.
Thanks to Paul Woodadge who helped us with an earlier version of this film. We recommend his book Angels of Mercy: Two Screaming Eagle Medics.

My father served as a medic. He is the nice, calmest, and most level headed person you will ever meet. One of the few times I saw him lose and needed to be held back started with an argument over helping wounded combatants. The other person who never served in any armed forces advocated killing all wounded opponents. My father stated every injured soldier he encounters will receive care no matter what uniform is worn. If anyone tried to interferes with his duty to help the wounded, even if it's a friendly, would not survive the battle. The other person walked away with a bloody nose and my father treated his bruised knuckles. I will be sending him this video

Reminds me of the story of a German soldier who crawled out to a wounded American who had his legs shot out from under him. As soon as the German scooped up the man and stood all fighting stopped as if someone flicked a switch. The German walked calmly across the field to the American line and waited until a stretcher was brought and he lowered the wounded American onto it. He turned and walked back across the field to his own lines and astonishingly not another bullet was fired that day.

You are possibly refering to the story of Friedrich Lengfeld, and if that's the case then I gotta disappoint you with reality. It happened during the battle of the Hürtgen forrest. A US soldier stepped on a landmine and was screaming loudly in pain in the middle of no mans land. Lengfeld ordered his troops to let any medic pass to the wounded GI to save him, but took it into his own hands to save the wounded man after US medics failed to show up after a couple of hours. He and his squad rose the flag of the red cross and went towars the soldier, directing the Americans toward him too. Unfortunately, he himself stepped on a landmine and the shrapnel gravely injured him. It is also unknown if the GI survived.

There are. On April 2nd 2010 during the Karfreitagsgefecht in Afghanistan a couple of American Black Hawks risked their lives to evacuate wounded German Paratroopers, ignoring direct orders from their superiors to not try to land, because the landing zone was hot. I know that Germany and USA now are allies, but it always brings a tear to my eyes thinking, that the grandfathers of these brave soldiers maybe were fighting eachother and now they are risking their lives to safe eachother.

They still happen, it just isn't ever covered by the media. I've heard of a few instances of it happening in Ukraine too, usually with Russian medics, granted it isn't to anywhere near the same level of heroism as with these two. There's also the issue of "Doc" having become the most dangerous person in the entire squad among grunts, especially in the US forces. Not because he's the most deadly shooter or anything, but because even looking at him threateningly, or especially shooting in his direction, will result in that entire squad- if not their entire platoon- coming down on you with all the fire and fury they can muster. The Geneva Convention becomes the "Geneva Suggestion" if you mess with Doc.

Can’t wait to see more of your older videos redone. This is one of the few videos that made me stop and think. And yes it did make me misty eyed. It breaks down both sides to their most basic human nature and that even in wartime we can be humble and show humility towards our fellow man. They couldn’t have picked a better location to set up. The beauty is staggering and looks so peaceful. After having a heart to heart with god a few years back when I was in a rough patch in my life…. I can attest he did amazing work through those two men.

May R.E.W rest in peace and i hope the soldiers he helped lived on perhaps even surviving the rest of the war knowing the reason they made it to the end at all was due to the action of two medics who didnt care what uniform you were wearing. they just wanted to help the wounded. german or ally soldier it matter'd not to them the wounded need aid and aid they received
