The Warfighters: Battle Stories

The Warfighters: Battle Stories is a powerful two-hour Veterans Day event delving into some of the most harrowing operations of the War on Terror. Blending raw first-person accounts from Army Rangers, Green Berets, Navy SEALs, and Marines with archival footage and cinematic recreations, these stories are told entirely in the voices of the men who lived them. The special is presented by USAA and is hosted by retired COL Michail "Gus" Huerter who served 28 years in the US Army. Serving for eight combat tours in Iraq, Afghanistan and other parts of the middle east and now part of USAA's Military Affairs team, Colonel Huerter introduces viewers to unfiltered, true stories of brotherhood, sacrifice, and resilience that honor the warriors who fought on the frontlines, while shedding light on the cost and courage of combat.
