In this powerful two-part episode of The Lasting Mission, we sit down with Wounded Warrior Project CEO Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Walter E. Piatt to explore the evolution, challenges, and future of one of the most recognized veteran service organizations in the country.

 In Part 1, we dive into Walter’s personal transition from active-duty military service to becoming the head of WWP, the deep-rooted responsibility he feels toward veterans, and how the organization has evolved to meet the changing needs of post-9/11 warriors. This episode reveals how connection, purpose, and trust are key pillars in modern veteran support.

 Whether you're a veteran, a family member, or someone passionate about supporting those who’ve served — this two-part episode will give you a renewed sense of the mission and momentum behind Wounded Warrior Project.
