Introducing Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Launching on June 26, Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage is a new podcast telling the extraordinary tales of some of the United States’s military heroes. Every week, we'll dive into a different Medal of Honor recipient's life story.  The Medal of Honor is awarded for bravery in combat that goes far above and beyond the call of duty – those acts of heroism and courage that save lives despite impossible risk. In our first season, you’ll hear stories about Medal of Honor recipients from the Civil War to the Iraq War. We’ll think about what it is that makes a hero, the true nature of sacrifice, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage is a co-production of iHeartMedia and Pushkin Industries.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
