On this Veteran's Day, we revisit a 2018 conversation with then-93-year-old soldier John Waller, who survived the sinking of the S.S. Léopoldville by a German U-boat on Christmas Eve in 1944. The attack killed 763 soldiers.
It's a story he didn't tell until recently, and one that also involved his theft of a tiny portrait from a French château. More than half a century later, he came to terms with both.
Host Robin Young spoke to documentary filmmakers Garland Waller and Barry Nolan — John Waller's daughter and son-in-law — as well as John Waller. "The Silent Soldier and the Portrait" will air this week on PBS stations.
