World War II United States Marine Combat Veteran C.J. LACROSS
WWII U.S. Marine Combat Veteran C.J. LACROSS was an orphan in Detroit during the Great Depression. He was helped by Henry Ford who provided him a trade in machining. As a teenager, he voluntarily joined the U.S. Marines during World War II where he was sent into combat in the Pacific Theater. He shares with us these stories as well as some invaluable lessons he has learned after 97 years on the planet. This is an episode not to be missed!
Parent Warning: This episode contains explicit language.
I Wanted To Be Found - Travis' Story Part 2
Note: If you haven't listened to part 1 of this series, it is highly advised that you do so; there is just so much context that sets up this episode.
The injuries Travis received in combat forced an early exit from service and he did his best to meld back into some kind of normal life in returning to the United States. Attempts at pain management and PTSD would make that a difficult transition.
This is chapter 2 of a 3-part series here in The Nook.
