So…I’ve been doing radio for going on 28 years. And for the most part, it’s been a goof. I’ve seen every band I’ve ever wanted to see. I’ve had a chance to interview most of ’em. And it’s been a blast.<\/p>\n

However…once I had a chance to take part in something special. I mean truly<\/strong> special. I mean a once-in-a-lifetime moment<\/strong><\/em> that made a real difference. This is that moment…caught on tape. It was 2005 and I had the chance to thank a soldier. Not just any soldier. But, a local boy from the South Shore of Boston. His name is Sgt. Peter Damon. You may recognize him from the shameless, exploitation of his situation by scumbag-director Michael Moore. If you “google” him, you’ll read his true story.\u00a0 It suffices to say…the man deserves more than we could ever give. I am more proud of this day, than any I have ever spent.<\/p>\n

We were asked by the amazing organization Homes For Our Troops<\/a> to take part in the very first project of its kind in America.<\/p>\n

What you are about to listen to…is just a sample<\/em> of that day. It is a long file (about an hour)…but IMHO…well worth the listen. Not for my glory. This day wasn’t about me.\u00a0 I am so glad to have this audio. When I was editing it, it brought back emotions that move me just as much today as they did almost 6 years ago.<\/p>\n

Sgt. Damon<\/a> has gone on to do incredible things.\u00a0 He is the epitome of an American hero. And I thank him for allowing me the honor of serving his family…if only for one day. Please give this a listen. I think you’ll be touched.<\/p>\n\nhttp:\/\/neanderpaul.com\/paulmuf\/WAAF\/HomesForOurTroops.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
