"The Ritchie Boys" is the untold story of a group of young men who fled Nazi Germany and returned to Europe as soldiers in US uniforms.

Not always courageous, but determined, bright, and inventive they fought their own kind of war. They saved lives. They were victors, not victims. | "The Ritchie Boys" is the untold story of a group of young men who fled Nazi Germany and returned to Europe as soldiers in US uniforms.
