A lifelong student of history - this episode began as a serious topic of interest for Craig - and evolved into multiple conversations with a special guest.  For our listeners, we took our time with this episode and it was reviewed with careful consideration due to the significance of the subject.On June 6, 2024 - many of us in the free world paused to recognize a significant anniversary. The 80th anniversary of D-Day.D-Day, also known as Operation Overlord, was the allied invasion of Normandy to liberate Europe from Nazi tyranny.  There have been other milestone anniversaries of D-Day, but this year came at a very challenging time in the world and hits very differently that previous years for other reasons.The conversation begins around why that is.One term that was raised in one of the many articles written on the topic - was that we are losing our ‘tangible interpreters’ of the event.  The people who were there in 1944, the people that many of us knew or were even raised by, sadly, will not be with us much longer.  The knowledge of these major events now passes to those of us fortunate to know those who lived it and to take care in how we communicate these events to new generations who soon will never have the chance to meet a veteran of WWII.To help with this topic - Craig knew the perfect guest, Evan Wisner.When sharing an anniversary article with Evan, that article highlighted the Army Rangers DDAY operation on Point Du Huc, a conversation followed that we decided to take to the recording studio.Craig came to know Evan and appreciates his unique experiences and expertise as they are both members of Grand Rapids Toastmasters Club#404 - joining the club around the same time in 2019.  This means - Craig gets to hear a lot of great speeches from Evan.  Since Evan is both an EQ expert as well as a veteran of the war on terror who served alongside Army Rangers, you can be certain he brings a unique perspective to this conversation that makes it very much worth listening to.We ask listeners to take into consideration that this was a discussion focused on one major operation of a larger campaign of a greater war, and that all history, especially discussion around war, is limited, and does not tell every story, and often needs context for understanding.Thank You To Our Partners:The Institute at WeAreTheInstitute.com.  "Stop stressing over your business, you deserve a good night's sleep.
