My dad, Tom Erickson, joins me on the podcast this week. We only scratched the surface of where it could go. We start off with the story of the elk he shot while pooping in Colorado, what 9/11 was like at the South Dakota Air National Guard base, and how he accidentally ended up joining the Marine Corps. We also talk extensively about his service in the Marines up through the Tet Offensive in 1968.
