Hey there, and welcome back to Beyond the Base! Today’s episode is a special one close to my heart. I’m joined by my grandfather, Gary, a proud U.S. Army Veteran, who’s here to share his journey through military life. Not only will he be talking about his own experiences, but he’s also sharing the incredible story of my great-grandfather, who served in the Navy during World War II and witnessed the aftermath of the bombing of Nagasaki.

Through their stories, we’re reminded of the sacrifices that have shaped generations of military families—and why this legacy of service is so powerful.
