Tales from the Corps
Ep. 30 - The Boys From 3/6 Lima are Joined by Royal Air Force Veteran, Leighton Hughes, From Across the Pond
We had the pleasure of chatting with Leighton Hughes from the Royal Air Force about his passion for military history and the road it inevitably led him down. We indulged in stories comparing the culinary cultures of the U.S. and U.K. military, especially during overseas deployments, with Leighton sharing intriguing tales about the 'pay as you dine' system versus the American military's "mess" hall experience.
As we journeyed through the buffet of military life, we delved into the personal ingredients that flavor our careers in uniform. Reminiscing about influential films and books like "With the Old Breed," "Band of Brothers," and "The Pacific" we shared some nostalgic thoughts and uncovered the heartfelt dedication that drives us.
Wrapping up, we saluted the camaraderie that transcends uniform boundaries. From preserving personal memorabilia to planning events with the Library of Congress, join us as we explore the shared experiences and histories that bind us in service and beyond.
