Stephen Moore- Researching Untold Stories Stephen Moore does his research by going to those guys that were in the trenches and spending time with them and trying to get the untold stories.

It was an effort just to piece the story together. But what they accomplished was quite remarkable.” – Stephen Moore Current Project Stephen has been spending the past couple of years working on a book about naval aviation and the carrier battles in world war two. Stephen has been interviewing some of the fighter pilots, specifically some of the aces that flew during the Okinawa campaign in 1945. These are the guys that went up against the massive kamikaze waves coming in daily.  Kind of a last ditch effort to save Okinawa and these islands before America moved onto the homeland. “These guys are 96, 98, some of them are around a hundred years old that I'm talking to and unfortunately or I guess expectedly a handful of them have passed  just since I started taking on this project. So I kind of feel that the urge to interview as many people as I can while we still are blessed to have a few of these folks around.” – Stephen Moore To hear more from Stephen Moore and his experiences, download this episode.
