One Bleeding B-17 Gunner Changed Air Combat in 4 Minutes! 12 German Fighters Finished | WW2 History

On December 20, 1943, during the deadly Bremen raid, a B-17 Flying Fortress was torn apart by flak high over Nazi Germany, and the crew’s last hope rested on the tail guns. This is the true WW2 story of Staff Sergeant Forrest L. Vosler, a wounded B-17 tail gunner who held his fire until the final seconds and turned a Luftwaffe attack into a moment that helped change WWII air combat forever. A cinematic World War 2 documentary-style war story packed with tension, real heroism, and the brutal reality of USAAF bomber missions over Germany, told like you’re inside the aircraft as the fighters close in.
