Description

Almost 100 years ago, a mother grieving the loss of her son in battle brought together other mothers who were coping with similar losses; in the process, she started American Gold Star Mothers, Inc. Over the past century, the organization has grown and continues to aid mothers—and families—through the grieving process, inspiring its members to continue a life of service. Hosts LTG (Ret.) Leslie C. Smith and SMA (Ret.) Dan Dailey sit down with Gold Star Mothers President Patti Elliott and new member Nichole Jackson Chilton to discuss what the organization is currently doing, the brave exploits of their respective sons, and to discover how one of them influenced the recent renaming of Fort Bragg to Fort Liberty.


 


Guests:


 


Patti Elliot, Gold Star Mothers National President


Nichole Jackson Chilton, Gold Star Mother Member
