Episode 12: Velocity
from Paint the Sun: A Boy's Journey
This episode traces the making of Bill into a wartime pilot (and a wartime husband) from bases in rural America to the skies over Europe. Following the trail of artifacts his father left behind, Chris explores how war accelerates lives, compresses intimacy and reshapes identity. He reflects on inheritance—of faces, habits, silences and memories—and on the strange distance between the man he knew his father to be, and the man he must have been in combat.
