D Company Podcast is a collection of true stories and commentary based on the internationally acclaimed documentary Path of the Past and the biography, Louch: A Simple Man’s Story of War, Survival, Life, and Legacy.

As told by his grandson and namesake, these stories retrace Sgt. Louis “Louch” Baczewski’s harrowing journey through five major historic WWII battlegrounds.  

Part of the 3rd Armored Division, Baczewski and the other members of his Sherman tank crew stayed together from the hedgerow fighting in Normandy through the mud, cold, and snow of the Battle of the Bulge, eventually rolling into Germany itself. Of the 152 men in his company at the start of the trek, only Baczewski and 17 others survived.
