This podcast hosts, receives, and honors the stories of veterans of war. We open listeners to their authentic journeys, in war and after they come home. We provide a platform for our community to learn truths about war and to consider the real difficulties experienced when veterans must carry these truths by themselves. We explore life-giving possibilities for post-traumatic growth, help bridge the distances between veterans and the people in whose name they serve, and honor the vital lessons and

Scott and Glen welcome Jeff Vagle, whose range of military experience includes service as a United States Marine deployed in the “War on Drugs,” as a military contractor supporting Armed Forces missions in Afghanistan, and as an intelligence officer for an Army National Guard Unit. Jeff offers considerable insight and reflection on the breadth of veteran experience. He relates the discovery of his own moral injury in the years following his service. His testimony moves us to consider pain carried by those who have witnessed death and atrocity. He and Glen discuss the risks of moral injury for drone operators and other people participating in war remotely. Jeff identifies the people and resources that have been critical in “saving his life” and accompanying him on his journey of healing, highlighting key elements to post-traumatic growth. There is a great deal of encouragement for fellow veterans here. Links and References: The Stephen A. Cohen Military Family Clinics www.cohenveteransnetwork.org Grossman, Dave. (1995.)

It All Means Something 47:01

In Vietnam, “Don’t mean nuthin” was a common expression of deep despair, depression, and darkness. In this podcast, Glen reflects on his war experiences and the years since, recovering and revealing many things that have truly “meant something.” Taking time for grief, tending to the violence done to the soul as well as the body, honoring the experiences and humanity of others—these have been vital. “You have to accept reality, talk about it, tell your story, and influence people to glorify war less and be more soulful in our decisions to go to war.” Recorded in proximity to Veterans Day, Scott and Glen talk about veteran suicide and other war-related factors that take more lives than combat itself. Scott describes The Witting Tree, a moving public witness to the reality and cost of veteran suicide that began in one local faith community and has proliferated throughout the country.…

Glen and Scott discuss the origins of COMPASS, the importance of authentic veteran testimony, the power of storytelling, and what is involved in creating a safe space for sharing that serves as both sanctuary and crucible. Disengagement between veterans of war and the people in whose name they have served has been longstanding. Parades are more common than receptivity and deep listening. What can communities do to honor veterans by welcoming the fullness of their stories and the hard-won wisdom of their journeys?…
