About this listen

 War leaves a mark that goes far beyond the battlefield. In this compelling podcast, Wisconsin veterans advocate John Maino shares unforgettable conversations with veterans of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam — and the families who stood beside them. Hear first-hand what it was like to fight through the Battle of the Bulge, survive the freezing Chosin Reservoir, and endure Vietnam’s unforgiving jungles. These powerful stories reveal not just the courage shown in combat, but the lasting scars carried home. One episode even introduces a hero who endured five years as a prisoner of war.2025 World
