In-Class Listening from 2/27

Today we listened to two really powerful StoryCorp stories from veterans.

The first was from Captain Drew Pham, speaking with his wife Amy about his deployment to Afghanistan in 2011.

The second was from Michael Crowe. In this short clip he describes looking at photos of soldiers from Vietnam.

For each of these stories I asked

  • What word or phrase stood out to you?
  • What connections can you make with the stories we've read in this unit?


We also watched this beautiful StoryCorp animated video called "The Nature of War:"
