They’re members of what’s known as “The Greatest Generation."
They are the men and women who rallied during World War Two to help the U.S., and its allies defeat Germany and Japan.

Rishi Sharma of Agoura Hills has videotaped close to a hundred interviews with World War Two combat veterans, and has turned it into his full-time job.
