Description
On this week's "60 Minutes," Bill Whitaker reports on the Pentagon projects that helped combat COVID-19 and may help end pandemics forever. The Ritchie Boys were responsible for uncovering more than half the combat intelligence on the Western Front during World War II. For the many German-born Jews in their ranks, defeating the Nazis was heartbreakingly personal. Jon Wertheim has their story.
