Listening To Now - Reviewing Later

How to train our soldiers, and what might be done to help them with their new identities once they’re Home;

a POW tale of derring-do;

books providing comfort and mental and emotional journeys during times of strife;

and the most heart wrenching line from a forgotten war.

Sooo many votes, and I just couldn’t choose. Let’s do Memorial Day right.
