The Herman Lodinger Memorial Lecture is on April 25th at 6:30 pm at the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force. Retired Pastor, Chris Edmonds, son of World War II hero Master Sergeant, Roddie Edmonds, will speak on his father’s selfless actions to protect the Jewish soldiers in a German POW camp under his command. The program is free and open to the public.

Chris Edmonds presentation is based on his award-winning book, No Surrender: A Father, A Son, and an Extraordinary Act of Heroism that Continues to Live on Today. Both the book and Chris Edmonds’ presentation chronicle MSgt. Edmonds’ selfless actions to protect his Jewish brothers through moral courage, servant leadership, and unwavering faith.

This lecture is made possible through the Herman Lodinger Endowment Fund, established for the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force by a gift from Mr. Lodinger’s daughter and son-in-law, Holly and Paul Mandelkern. Second Lieutenant Herman Lodinger was a lead bombardier on a B-24 heavy bomber assigned to the 389th Bomb Group. His plane was shot down in July 1944, and he was captured by the Germans and held prisoner until his 1945 liberation.
