Echo Valor presents “Break Glass in Time of War,” a spoken-word tribute by David Burnell that blends raw storytelling with a haunting cinematic score. This piece captures the inner weight of those who serve in silence—warriors, rescuers, and medics who carry others through chaos but often bear their burdens alone. Written from firsthand experience in combat zones and humanitarian missions, this narrative honors those who always stand up for everyone else. It’s not just a track—a moment of recognition for our unseen heroes.
