Episode 85: The Legacy of the Puerto Rican Soldier

As far back as the Revolutionary War, Puerto Rican fighters have contributed to our Army and our national defense. From the Union Army during the Civil War to the development of Fort Bragg to the 65th Infantry Regiment "Borinqueneers" during the Korean War, Puerto Ricans have weaved a great legacy through American Army history. On this episode of the podcast, Army Sergeant Carlos Cuebas, frequent contributor to the 18th Airborne Corps podcast, joins host Joe Buccino to discuss the legacy. Carlos and Joe are joined by Carlos' Dad, Carlos Senior, a retired Army officer and a walking encyclopedia of military history.  Little Carlos and Big Carlos walk through some of the greatest stories of the Puerto Rican American Soldiers and offer insights into the values, virtues, and culture of the Puerto Rican people.
