About This Podcast
A WWII Podcast... sort of
Carson comments as Katie reads her grandmother's letters written by her love-sick husband after being drafted into the Army during WWII. The letters not only document his experiences during the war, but also tell a heart-warming story of separated lovers. Listen as our hosts deliver a fresh perspective on one of history's most significant conflicts sharing laughter, tears, and a glimpse into the lives of those who served during WWII, and those left at home.
