Louis Zamperini, Olympic runner, WWII vet, POW, and adult convert to Christ, passed away this morning due to complications with pneumonia. He was 97 years old. Denny Burk has a nice write up on his remarkable and accomplished life.
Zamperini’s life story is told in Laura Hillenbrand’s best-selling book Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption (soon to become a major motion picture directed by Angelina Jolie).
