A podcast dedicated to our nation's veterans and hearing their stories of what it was like to serve in war, return home to the States and transition out of military life. Talking about our experiences is a proven form of PTS therapy and the more veterans are given the opportunity to share, and the more people are willing to listen, the better this world will be. So come listen to these veterans' stories and hopefully be encouraged to listen to the stories of the veterans in your lives.

Sergeant Kregg Jorgenson

Sergeant Jorgenson served in Vietnam from 1969-1970 as both a LRRP Ranger and as a member of the Apache Troop Blues. Sergeant Jorgenson has the type of distinguished resumes where we need to pick and choose what we print of this intro will get exceedingly long. Sergeant Jorgenson was a firefighter, a Customs K9 Inspector, military journalist, member of the Kung Fu Hall of Fame, best selling author, and star of a CBS News YouTube video where 12 million people have watched him get shot while on patrol in Vietnam. We are pleased to report that Kregg made it out of that day alive (but not get the one way ticket home the news mentioned volunteered to go back to his unit).
Sergeant Jorgenson talks with us about that day among several other memorable missions in Vietnam. He talks about returning home to protests, "fan" mail he received after the CBS segment aired, and why he hates the nickname "Hero" when the other men he served with are the true heroes in his mind.
