In this episode, we delve into our diverse experiences as veterans and our journeys in the military. Our conversation covers topics such as culture shock, the significance of Polynesian camaraderie, and the unique experiences of Pacific Islander service members.
Our discussion also touches on the challenges faced during deployments and the varied paths veterans take upon leaving the military. We explore how different individuals respond to military service and the impact it has on their lives.
Additionally, we invite all veterans and the public to join us on November 10th for the Pacific Island Veteran's Day Dinner, a special event to honor and celebrate veterans in Utah. This dinner promises to be an evening of appreciation and recognition for the sacrifices made by those who have served in the armed forces. Don't miss this opportunity to connect and pay tribute to our veterans. Link to register for event: https://pacificislandveteransdinner.eventbrite.com
