Episode 154: Morning Brew - The Price They Paid

This Memorial Day edition of the Morning Brew reflects on the true human cost of America’s wars. From the Revolutionary War to Iraq and Afghanistan, we look beyond the headlines and casualty statistics to remember the lives forever changed by military service and sacrifice. This episode honors not only those who never made it home, but also the wounded veterans and families still carrying the physical and emotional scars of war. Through history, reflection, and gratitude, we are reminded that freedom is never free. Sometimes the numbers matter… because every number was once a name, a face, and a family forever changed.
