On this episode I have a conversation with Steve Wahl about his research on veteran identity that he presented at the Veterans In Society 2024 conference. We talk about differences between personal definitions and more broad definition of being a veteran, pop culture influences on veteran perceptions, the dangers of putting veterans on pedestals, and Steves thoughts on research as a whole in the field.

For the first of anything it’s always good to start with a primer and that’s why my first guest is Jim Craig to talk about the field of Veterans Studies from his position as the current president of the Veterans Studies Association. We talk about the start of the field from EKU along with the various contributions from different fields that truly make it an interdisciplinary study. This episode branches into so many aspects of the study that you’ll have to listen to find out!
