Pulling Rank (EP33)
Résumé de l'épisode 33
(11/13/2012) We sit down with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Martin Dempsey, on the future of the U.S. military and the concerns of veterans. Also, on December 7, 1941, Glenn Lane was a 23 year-old radio man assigned to the USS Arizona in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Many of his shipmates died on that “date that will live in infamy,” but Lane made it out alive, passing away recently at the age of 93. A military provision allows for those who survived the attack on the Arizona to have their ashes interred on the ship so they may join their fallen comrades. We were a given a special invitation by Lane’s family to document this rare military burial at the sunken battleship. And, a look at our newest veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan.
