Open Conversation about All Things WWII
This week, Glenn Flickinger moderates Open Conversation about World War II on Greatest Generation Live. Were Sherman tanks really that bad? Did Unconditional Surrender lengthen the war? Why did Fascist Spain stay neutral? We can discuss these and other topics of your choosing, from Atabrine to Yamato. Join us! Sponsored by D&D Auto Salvage and Tobacco Free Adagio Health. Simulcast to Facebook and YouTube.
GET INVOLVED TODAY
The mission of the Veterans Breakfast Club is to create communities of listening around veterans and their stories to ensure that this living history will never be forgotten. We believe that through our work, people will be connected, educated, healed, and inspired.
INTRODUCING THE VETERANS HISTORY PROJECT
Preserving veterans’ stories so that this living history is never forgotten.
We pair passionate VBC volunteers with military veterans for one-on-one oral history interviews over Zoom. If you are a veteran, or you know a veteran, who would be interested in sharing his or her story with us, let us know. If you are someone interested in conducting these interviews, please reach out!
