We've preserved this episode as a snapshot of how people experienced and responded to an unprecedented period.In the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, uncertainty touched nearly every part of daily life. For Marine veteran Andy Littlefield, that meant balancing work as an essential employee in the surgical supply industry while checking on fellow veterans facing isolation, PTSD, and the emotional weight of an unprecedented moment.Recorded during the height of the pandemic, this conversation captures how veterans, healthcare workers, and communities navigated a rapidly changing world. While some references reflect the guidance and circumstances of that specific time, the discussion around resilience, service, empathy, and supporting one another remains just as meaningful today.
