America's Frontlines Podcast 05 June 2026

In this special D-Day anniversary episode of America’s Frontlines: Colonel Denny and Skip revisit one of the most consequential military decisions in history. They examine the leadership of Dwight D. Eisenhower, the immense risks behind Operation Overlord, and the remarkable handwritten note Eisenhower carried accepting full responsibility should the invasion fail. It is a powerful reminder of the courage, accountability, and leadership that helped change the course of World War II. Colonel Denny also reviews some of the key news stories impacting our lives today, offering insight into the events shaping our nation and the world. As always, he lightens the mood with another round of his signature humor and well-timed one-liners. Our featured guest is fellow veteran Autumn Harpence, whose work focuses on an often-overlooked truth: while service members serve our nation, their families serve alongside them. Autumn shares her experiences and discusses the importance of supporting military families throughout every stage of service. We also hear from another inspiring female veteran as Navy veteran Theresa Robinson introduces fellow Navy veteran Cynthia Lincoln, who reflects on her time in uniform and the lessons she carried forward from her military service. And of course, we close with our regular look back at military history from this point in time—honoring the sacrifices and achievements that helped shape the nation we know today. As America approaches its 250th anniversary, these stories remind us not only of where we've been, but also of the enduring values that continue to make our country worth celebrating and defending.
