Hey guys and gals!!
Guess what? A first for me. My first radio interview that is. Ya, really!
Ken Kraetzer, whom I met a few years ago via the Internet, wrote to me this morning after receiving my latest article in Army Engineer Magazine. Ken asked me if I would call into his radio show during the summer and talk about what I do to honor the veterans. He broadcasts nationally on WVOX.com, every Friday morning at 8:35.
So I just got off the phone with him, and I am scheduled on August 1, 2008. I am very excited and honored to be part of this and can't wait. Oh ya, I'm a bit nervous, but I guess I'll get over the heeby-jeebies! 
Please check out Ken's site here:
You can also listen to recent interviews too.
Some of you may recognize Ken's name and the site, because I have spoken about them several times within the last four years. Ken was part of a great organized trip to Italy.
American Legion Post 50 SAL 50 Goes to Italy
In May 2005 members of Post 50 and its Sons
of the American Legion Detachment organized
a trip to Italy to conduct World War II 60th
Anniversary ceremonies at the two American
Cemeteries at Nettuno and Florence.

They are going to Normandy in June 2009, and asked if I would help to promote the trip. So here we go...

Ken wanted me to listen in this morning to hear his interview with an aircraft carrier. It gave me a feel for the show.
Yes, you can listen to me LIVE at 0835 (that's 8:35 AM to the general public 
) on the 22nd of August. Simply go to WVOX.com and you can hear the morning show right on their home page. If you miss it, they will have it posted as a sound file you can click on. I'll be sure to give you all the pertinent information.
Looks like it will be a short interview. Good! That makes me feel a bit more relieved.
I will try and make sure I get in a Happy birthday to my good buddy Rocky Raccoon!
