Legendary NASCAR car owner Bud Moore received a letter a few days after he turned 18 years old, and it wasn’t a birthday card. Instead, it was Uncle Sam drafting him to fight overseas in World War II.
Bud was one of the first men who stormed the beach on D-Day, fought in the Battle of the Bulge, and survived multiple injuries on the battlefield. And he has a vivid story for every moment. He details his life before, during, and after the war that you can only hear from Bud himself. It is neither glorious nor spun out, it is a heroic tale from a man who gave the ultimate sacrifice to protect his country.
