WATCH: Veteran Gives Testimony of Encountering Christ on the Battlefield
Harry Walmer, WWII veteran of B-17 Bombers, tells his story of the devastation WWII brought, and his remarkable encounter with Christ in the midst of great personal danger. Harry was honored with his honor Flight a few years ago, and explains how much a simple “thank you” means to veterans.
“The Lord was with me,” Walmer said. “That’s when I gave my life to Christ, during those horrible, horrible events. We saw so (much) destruction, so many people killed.”
Walmer was drafted two weeks after his birthday, serving in the 8th Air Force in Europe, flying B-17s.
“It’s difficult to think about it,” Walmer said. “As people try to comfort me when I feel real bad about it, they will say, ‘Remember, you didn’t do that out of vengeance. You did that to protect our country.”
