The Scuttlebutt: Understanding Military Culture
Season 1
by Veterans Breakfast Club
This week on The Scuttlebutt, we are taking a closer look at the people who serve and asking the question: why would a civilian risk making the ultimate sacrifice by joining the military? We'll also take a look at some headlines from the Atlantic articles on the President's alleged statement on U.S. troops, as well as recent polling regarding military's view of the President. We'll wrap up with some fun Scuttlebutt! Visit www.veteransbreakfastclub.org for more on this week's episode.
Welcome to The Scuttlebutt, a weekly pre-recorded program presented by The Veterans Breakfast Club. “Scuttlebutt” is a military term (specifically Navy) for talk or gossip around the watercooler below decks. And this is what our program is all about: we have informed conversations about the military experience, past and present. We want to bridge the divide between those who serve and those who don’t. We look at headlines, we tackle important topics, and we ask questions. This week, we ask the question, "Who Serves?" We take a look at this question both geographically and demographically. Join us on this journey of spreading the Scuttlebutt!
