NPC member Jody Beck has always had a strong interest in her family history, but it was the discovery of World War II-era diary entries and family letters about Madsen Cobb Kokjer, nicknamed Ty, that led her to write “Your Loving Son, Ty: A World War II Story of Hope and Horror in the Pacific.” In this episode of Update-1, Beck speaks with Broadcast/Podcast Team co-chair Adam Konowe about the plethora of documents made available to her, as well as what she pieced together about Ty's life before and during the war. Postscripts to this poignant family story were revealed through visits to Asia by Ty's parents in 1958 and Beck herself in 2023.
