Podcasts by American Valor Podcast
Through the unique intersection of Major League Baseball, the United States Navy and Marine Corps, we recognize and honor those who support our service men and women with the Bob Feller Act of Valor Award. By using the Bob Feller story, we educate the youth of today on the lessons of citizenship, service to one’s country, and personal sacrifice in times of great national need. Teaching the legacy of the greatest generation to the next generation will help instill in them the virtue of service to others. The American Valor Podcast interviews Americans exhibiting valor in their lives to educated and inspire others to do the same. http://www.actofvaloraward.org
