Cleaning a WWII Veteran’s Headstone | Story of Hill 400 Fallen Hero

Discover the untold story of Pvt. John Charles Getzfread, a 19-year-old Army Ranger whose tragic fate in World War II has remained hidden for decades. In this episode, we honor his sacrifice by restoring his gravestone at Holy Sepulcher Cemetery in Glenside, PA, and sharing his remarkable journey—from football stardom in Philadelphia to the brutal Battle of Hill 400 in the Hürtgen Forest.

Follow along as we uncover how Pvt. Getzfread endured months of suffering from a spinal cord injury, gangrene, and eventual heart failure, all while separated from his family. His story reveals the devastating realities of war and reminds us why every fallen hero deserves remembrance.

👉 Watch as we clean his headstone, preserve his legacy, and reflect on the importance of honoring veterans whose stories might otherwise be forgotten.
