many of them -- there's a picture of phillip and sumner jackson in the 1930s. actually, that's taken on juno beach, one of the landing beaches of d-day. the family here again in the 1930s. phillip obviously with his father. the gentleman to the left is a guy called rene lagarde who actually played a very important role as we'll discover later in saving phillip's life. he taught phillip to swim in the very rough waters of the english channel. sumner was determined that phillip would learn to box so he could defend himself. sumner actually hired a professional boxer to come and give phillip lessons and he always had phillip learn to swim in the very difficult waters of the english channel. i point out here if you can see this. this is the arc de triomphe here. that's where the jacksons lived. avenue fosche. there were two entrances, there you go. thank you, jeremy. perfect. this is the address today. a good friend of mine took the photograph. it's the ground floor apartment. that's where dr. jackson, sumner jackson, had a private medical practice. he made a lot of

phillip jackson, their son told me they fell in love while jackson operated in the surgery. their first very long kiss was off the picture. he told me it was a very long kiss indeed. >> it is france after all. >> here is toquette and sumner, she was a remarkable woman, she was a fantastic tennis player and boasted throughout her life that she beaten france's number one tennis player of all time. she won 31 championships. toquette was a very good tennis player, she loved to play tennis with sumner. and for ten years she tried to get pregnant and it did not work out. in 1929, third jackson, their only son was born at the american hospital in paris. she was in her mid-30s and given up hope at having a child. here is phillip and sumner. it is an absolutely beautiful autograph. phillip is still alive. to most of us of this photograph is the railing that you see the effect of railings behind them. very privilege of bringing and living on the exclusive streets of paris. he ended up treating hemingway and fitzgerald and many of th them -- that's taken on juniper beach. one of the be

that's how phillip jackson survived. he was taken by the british army and actually became a translator for summer of 1945 in the city. you can see the american star there. he was also involved with the americans interrogate germans. he could speak german very well. his mother toquette survived in paris, saying where are you? come home to paris, i want to be with you. she lost the love of her life, she had a son, she wanted him to return. >> phillip told me that he did not want to go back because going back would take him through the loss of his father and what he went through. eventually he went back. and phillip is a decorated -- highly decorated veteran of the french resistance. you can't be highly decorated simply because of the suv remembering you endured imposed by the nazis. you might not have thrown a bomb or made a difference but a year in the camp qualifies you as a hero. this is in hamburg 1946. phillip is on the right. he looks remarkably like his father. people would come to him and say he's the spitting imag

shot down on july 14, 1943, phillip jackson visited his father at the american hospital and saw this huge great air battle above paris, the americans bombed paris on bastille day, 1943. joe manos was shot down. he finally made it back to england about four months later completing what was called a home run. around 300 americans managed to get back to england and made what was called a home run. amazing achievement. when he got back he was interrogated for about a week by british intelligence and here you'll see just over here that there he reports having been kept for three days at 11 avenue foch by dr. sumner jackson. the penalty for aiding downed airmen by this stage of the war, by 1943, was instant death. you were shot on the spot. but this is one example, one documented example of one of the airmen that sumner jackson helped. manos was taken to the american hospital where he met sumner jackson, sumner jackson took him back to his home on avenue foch. in 1943 the french resistance becomes very much more active. it looks as if the war is turning against the germans and many communi

phillip jackson, their son, told me that they fell in love while jackson was operating on very severely wound eed dough boys fm the trenches and their very first very long kiss was in a linen closet. and phillip told me it was a very long kiss, indeed. it's france, after all. here's toquette and sumner. she was a remarkable woman, very strong spirited, a fantastic tennis player and boasted through most of her life that she'd beaten france's number one tennis player of all time. actually suzanne legeran who won 31 championships. toquette was a very good tennis player. they were married in the early 1920s and for 10 years she tried to get pregnant and it didn't work out and final ly lo and behold in 1929 phillip jackson, their only son was born, at the american hospital in paris at least a crate of champagne was drunk to celebrate his arrival because she was in her mid-30s and had given up hope of ever having a child. that summer in, it's a beautiful photograph. he's still alive, he's 89 years old and the thing to note about this photograph is that the railings, you can see a blurred effe

i said, you don't know that phillip jackson -- i realized he didn't want to have any connection with the jackson family because he felt such tremendous guilt, and he told me he felt tremendous guilt. he told me, i couldn't go face toquette after the war. i sent my father instead to go and tell her how sorry i was. toquette said you don't have to feel sorry because all of us were able to hold our heads high. we joined the resistance. we're very proud of that. so anyway, a couple of weeks after i saw him, he went to see phillip for the first time. i don't know what they talked about, but i'm sure it was -- i'm sure it was quite profound. he said to phillip, i'm really sorry that your parents went through what they did and you went through what you did and sorry that your father died. it was my fault. phillip said, of course, it wasn't your fault. it wasn't your fault. don't feel bad about it. as an addendum to this gentleman, he is the last living survivor of the french mountaineering party that climbed k2 in 1950. the highest mountain ever climbed in 1952 was k2 by the french. and hal
