Team 47 - Thank you, Veterans

Clay and Buck highlight President Donald Trump's live remarks from Arlington National Cemetery, where he honored the U.S. military and announced the symbolic renaming of the Department of Defense back to the “Department of War,” emphasizing a renewed focus on military strength and victory. 


Military recruitment trends are also discussed, with Clay noting a surge in enlistment under the Trump administration, attributing it to a shift away from “woke” policies and toward a warrior ethos. The hosts reflect on the importance of morale, historical military hardships like Valley Forge and the Battle of the Bulge, and the enduring legacy of American service members. They recommend war novels like Killer Angels and Gates of Fire to deepen appreciation for military history.


David “Rut” Rutherford, Former Navy SEAL and host of The David Rutherford Show on the C&B Podcast Network, talks about the uptick in enlistment under President Trump and Secretary of War Hegseth. 


Dakota Meyer, Medal of Honor recipient and Founder of The BLUF on Substack, tells the incredible story of how he earned the medal in Afghanistan, his honest opinion on the pullout from the country — and his work to prevent “weak men” from playing women’s sports by joining XX-XY Athletics as ‘Ultimate Girl Dad’ brand ambassador.
