In this episode, Tyler talks with Bobby Brooks, author and historian , about his love of military history and honoring those who have served. He wrote his first book From the Frozen Chosin to Churchill: The Biography of CSM Ray Hooker Cottrell as told to Bob Brooks based on the memories of veteran Ray Cottrell. Ray became a soldier and experienced his first taste of war in North Korea at the age of seventeen as his journey began in Incheon to Suwon and then to the Chinese border of the Yalu and the Chosin Reservoir.
Bobby's love for history and honoring those who have served lead him into writing another story soon to be published about the life of WWII/Korean War/Vietnam veteran Sam Arredondo.
