What drives someone to serve and continue to honor those who have sacrificed everything? Join us as we sit down with Tom, co-author of "Three Wise Men" and author of the newly released "I Have Your Back," to uncover the profound stories of service and sacrifice. We revisit the heart-wrenching journey of Bo Wise, a Marine Corps veteran who lost two siblings in Afghanistan, making him the only service member to endure such a devastating loss. Tom's insights provide a deeply moving exploration of legacy, remembrance, and the importance of honoring our fallen heroes and their families.

The episode also shines a spotlight on the inspiring and tragic tale of Staff Sergeant Michael Ollis from Staten Island, New York. Motivated by his father's military service and the events of 9/11, Michael joined the Army at just 17. His ultimate sacrifice for a Polish soldier in Afghanistan is not only a testament to his bravery but also to the enduring bonds between allies. Tom walks us through the meticulous process of writing Michael's story, from gathering heartfelt interviews to capturing the personal anecdotes that bring this narrative to life. This chapter underscores the incredible sacrifices made by our soldiers and the friendships that transcend borders.
