What if you could peek into the seldom-shared tales of our veterans - those who have bravely served our country? In our engaging conversation with Brad Hoops, the founder of Remember and Honor, we bring you just that. Brad’s remarkable project is dedicated to preserving the stories of our veterans through personal interviews, and our discussion uncovers the impact they have on both veterans and interviewers.
We learn about Brad's moving experience with a World War II veteran, which deeply impacted him and shed light on the generational disconnect between veterans. Our focus then shifts to the distinct experiences of veterans from different wars. From Korean War veterans to Vietnam veterans, each has their unique insights and challenges. We also touch on the changing landscape of veterans' organizations and the potential role of social media in fostering a sense of camaraderie that may be dwindling elsewhere.
We wrap up our conversation by shining a spotlight on the personal experiences of veterans, especially those who might feel guilt or shame about their roles or assignments. We emphasize the importance of supporting all veterans, regardless of their military role. We explore the power of storytelling through interviews with World War II and Vietnam veterans, revealing the varying perspectives within the veteran community. Join us as we amplify the voices of our veterans, honor their service, and explore the complexities of their experiences.
