Behind the Story: A Veteran's Journey

Welcome to Behind the Story, a program where we take you straight to the source. Veterans Day was this week and to remember those who have served in the armed forces we'll be hearing from 86-year-old Allen Smith, a resident of Elm Mott.  Smith, an African-American, rose through the Air Force ranks during a time when many were still flighting for their civil rights. Interviewing Smith is his son Michael Smith, whose wife found his father’s medals and diplomas hidden away in a closet.
