Grad Chat Chronicles: From Elyria High to Army Officer
Description
Four years ago, we sat down with Ethan Trampush, a remarkable young man who had just graduated high school and earned a full congressional scholarship to the United States Military Academy at West Point. Our podcast was in its early days—his story was one of our first, and one we never forgot.
He returns now as a West Point graduate and a newly commissioned officer in the U.S. Army.
In this episode, we catch up on his journey and what it took to navigate the physical, mental and emotional demands of West Point, the growth he experienced along the way, and the sense of purpose that now drives him as an Army officer.
He was joined at his commissioning ceremony by a special guest—his former high school teacher, John Wallace, a U.S. Army veteran who inspired him from the start, and who joins him in studio for this interview.
