The Rolling Vets Podcast

The Rolling Vets celebrate the USMC birthday by discussing the battle of Belleau Wood and its impact on the Marine Corps. ONE YEAR DOWN! We would like to thank you all for sticking with us during our first year of the podcast and we are excited to continue to grow that relationship with our audience. Happy Veterans Day!

Chris and Lucas delve into the vastness and evolution of the Internet, the scenes behind corporate-funded media, and whatever else came into their THC-heightened minds. 

After a month hiatus to take care of our personal lives, the boys are reunited for a short episode to let you all know that we are still kickin!

The boys talk about the standards of the military and how and how we don't hold ourselves to those same standards now that we are veterans. What motivates you to keep going? How do you hold yourself accountable as a veteran?

Aaron, Chris, and Lucas are joined by a special guest Navy Corpsman Albert Molina. They discuss the relationship between Corpsmen and Marines, and the importance of having competent medics/corpsmen.

What is patriotism and why is it important to Americans? When does patriotism evolve into nationalism? Chris and Lucas discuss patriotism and they dump pack on all that comes with it. 

Chris and Lucas are joined by a former Army Specialist Michael Guthrie who shares the story of his enlistment, time as an 11C, and his experience in combat during Operation Enduring Freedom.

Aaron, Chris, and Lucas discuss morale and command climate and the impact it has on the efficiency of a unit through personal experiences. How has command climate and morale affected your current/former unit? Was it positive or negative?

Chris and Lucas go over Rudyard Kipling's "If", a poem that details the expectations of male conduct. What does it mean to be a man? How should a man conduct himself? Do those expectations evolve over time?
