Multicast, in conjunction with Regis University's Department of War History and the Aurora History Museum,
produced a podcast for an exhibit at the museum running from June 13 - September 17, 2006. The exhibit displayed
what was "On the Backs of Soldiers" while they were enlisted for every United States war.
The Podcast was created using two hour interviews that Regis University captured from American war heroes. Multicast watched each of these interview videos many times and came up with an overall "theme" presented by each of the soliders. They then condesned the interviews around those themes and created a soundtrack base for each of the stories.
Prior to releasing the podcast we had all the veterans listen to these tracks to ensure that we were not doing any injustice to their stories or taking things out of context; and we received great praise!
We encourage you to download the entire podcast and take a listen. Some of the content of these storeis is likely not appropriate for young children due to the descriptions of some of the scenes of the stories; however older kids we think will enjoy and appreciate what these men did for each other and our country!
