Am I a VETERAN? Honoring Veterans w/ Charlie and Sue Baker - Ep 1:41

from Drivetime Diaries · host Chuck Baker

Happy Veteran's Day in the U.S.! I have mini-US, Navy, and Marine Corps flags in my classroom, so kids often ask if I was in the military, and I always have to sort of dodge the question because its a bit complicated in my opinion. Here's the story why. Along with that, my parents' stories as veterans helps informs my own, so I would have been remiss to not get them on the episode talking about their own experiences as Vietnam-era veterans of the US Air Force! This episode is half family story time, half a discussion on vets in America, and chock full of love for 'Merica I mention in the episode that I would post a link to 2023 Veteran's Day perks at restaurants/stores - here you go! https://www.military.com/veterans-day/veterans-day-military-discounts.html
