Welcome to SOFREP Video: Jumping Into Normandy With Tom Rice.
Tom Rice shares his experience of parachuting into Normandy as part of the 501st Parachute Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division. He recounts his childhood in Coronado during the 1930s, where he earned a quarter for each gopher he caught for the local fire department. With his earnings, he enjoyed Buck Rogers films and indulged in lollipops.
