178: Bob Hurt - Ft. Riley and Camp Hale During the Korean War War Stories with Preston and Sayre

    • Society & Culture

Sayre and I are joined today by my grandfather, Bob Hurt.  Bob grew up in Illinois and attended the U of I before being drafted into the Army during the Korean War.  He talks about the advice his dad, a WWI veteran, gave him not just about joining the military (avoid the Army) but also how to make the most of any situation he found himself in.  Bob got into the training at Ft. Riley, KS as well as some of the mountain training in Camp Hale, CO that went right up until the war ended.
