A look back to World War II, with two stories -- an aviator's survival in the Alaskan wilderness and the brutal battle of Okinawa that ended 70 years ago this week. Our guests: Brian Murphy of The Washington Post, author of "81 Days Below Zero," and longtime Maryland journalist Len Lazarick, whose father served in the infantry on Okinawa.
