On the 80th anniversary of D-Day, the family military histories of the hosts are detailed, specifically honoring Albert J. Schoebel. Schoebel, a German immigrant who arrived at Ellis Island in 1912, served in the Signal Corps and landed at Normandy, earning a Bronze Star. The account contrasts his service with the internment of Japanese-Americans and the South Pacific service of Lieutenant Commander Renwick Eugene Curry.

A donor from the AV industry describes the total collapse of live events through August and asks for crowdsourced income ideas. He provides an insider perspective on why political campaign audio is often poor compared to the President's, which is handled by a dedicated Army Signal Corps team with standardized equipment.

Donations in honor of grandfathers who served in World War II lead the hosts to share their own family histories involving D-Day and the Pacific Theater. A listener's letter also sparks a brief debate on the terminology of "longhand" versus "cursive" writing.
