Narrated by: Andrew Baldwin

God's Hand on My Shoulder is the true story of Joe Carl Martin, Jr., an ordinary man of extraordinary faith, quiet courage, and great humility.

More than a memoir of one man's life, it is a glimpse into history through a warrior's eyes.

"When I was in flight school, our theory of flight instructors explained the rule in physics that governs why an airplane must have a tail to fly. I didn't question their wisdom then. But less than a year later, on 7 April 1945, God made an exception to the rule for nine very lucky airmen."
