In this episode of Beyond the Call, we bring you the powerful true story of Master Sergeant Vito R. Bertoldo, a soldier who defied limitations and took a stand that would echo through history. Despite being classified as unfit for combat, Bertoldo volunteered for frontline duty and found himself defending a command post near Hatten, France during Germany’s final Western Front offensive—Operation Nordwind.
Over the course of two harrowing days, he held off tanks, machine guns, and waves of enemy infantry—all while refusing to abandon his post. This narration brings to life every detail of Bertoldo’s valor, sacrifice, and sheer willpower. If you want to understand what courage truly looks like, listen in.
