The Someone You Should Know radio collaboration began as an extension of Matt Burden’s series at Blackfive. Bruce McQuain, a veteran of the Vietnam war who spent 28 years in the U.S. Army, is now the driving force behind our weekly tribute to the troops, every Sunday evening at 9pm est on Boston’s Talk Station WRKO. Bruce brings a perspective and understanding to these stories that we could never match.
