Partner Episode - LitWar Podcast: Mac Caltrider
Veterans Radio has a partnership with the Literature of War Foundation to exchange podcast content to reach a wider audience. This week, Marine Corps veteran and author Mac Caltrider sits down with the LitWar Podcast to discuss his memoir DOUBLE KNOT: A War Memoir in Seven Essays. It approaches his time in service as an infantryman, but the moments he chooses to write about might surprise you. He covers his experiences in combat but also the quieter moments and everything that comes after. MAC CALTRIDER is a Baltimore-based writer and educator. His award-winning work has previously appeared in Coffee or Die Magazine, Leatherneck Magazine, Dirtbag Magazine, and a poetry collection In Love... & War: The Anthology of Poet Warriors. Before pursuing writing, Caltrider served in the United States Marine Corps.
