On this Father’s Day, I’m so happy to present to you some unbelievable information about my hero, my dad, and his WWII exploits. I was delighted to join Mike Chupp, MD, the CEO of the Christian Medical and Dental Associations (CMDA), to talk about my dad and his adventures that are revealed in my latest book, At First Light: A True World War II Story of a Hero, His Bravery, and an Amazing Horse.

During the interview, I have the privilege to share portions of the emotional tale of Phil Larimore, my dad, and his journey from Memphis, Tennessee, to the beaches of Italy, across France, and finally to Germany where dad lost his leg during the final stages of World War II.

You’ll also hear a bit about how he helped save the world-famous Lipizzaners and how he heroically fought for military officers who were amputees to be able to stay in service to their country.

To listen to the podcast, go to the CMDA Matters website, and then look for the May 19, 2022 recording. Here’s a link to the video version.

Let me know what you think.
