the heroism aspect of the story

I feel this should be added to everyone's list of literary works to read. it is awareness that should be spread as far and wide as possible. We don't give enough credit to the man and woman who serve our country.

Wow

What a great collection of important stories. I would love to hear more. I was very impressed with the last story regarding the efforts made by just a few to help those Afghans who risked their lives for the American military.

good listening

if you are tired of fiction this is a must. dramatic stories gently told, so inspiring. Interviews with the people involved a plus as they tell their stories in their own words
