Veterans’ Stories
For our Veteran's Day program, we listen to excerpts from the StoryCorp booth of American veteran's from World War II, Vietnam and Iraq, telling their stories of fighting and returning from those wars. Then, we look at the new Congress from a former Senator, a brand-new Congressman, and an old hand who was just re-elected. Also, where money, sports and politics collide, and we remember 60 Minutes' Ed Bradley.
