In this powerful Veterans Day episode, three brothers-in-arms reunite to reflect on service, sacrifice, and lifelong friendship. Host Manny Guzman, a 7-year U.S. Army veteran and 23-year Chicago Police Sergeant, sits down with Jose “Berty” Pacheco, a 9-year U.S. Army veteran and Department of Defense contractor, and Jose “Papito” Hernandez, a retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel with 26 years of service, now with the Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES).

Together, they share heartfelt stories of how they met in the Army, the bond that carried them through decades of service, and what Veterans Day truly means to them. This conversation celebrates honor, resilience, and the unbreakable brotherhood that never fades—because duty, once taken, lasts for life.
