Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business
Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business
We started Tracer Burnout with a simple idea: a platform for military veterans to share their stories of service. By inviting veterans to speak about their experiences, we hope to help them feel heard, to know their service matters, to preserve their memories for future generations, and to provide civilians with a better understanding of life in the service.
Your financial support helps us bring the stories of veterans to everyone and preserve the memories of their service for future generations. Consider a monthly contribution.

In this episode, we are joined in the studio by Army National Guard veteran, Mr. Tyler Pollard.

We also discuss his trauma from his time in Syria and how being sent to the Soldier Recovery Unit (SRU) set him up to become a Warrior Games gold medalist and the people that helped him heal along the way.
