Welcome to Four Titles, One Truth.

Hosted by retired Army Sergeant Major Tommie Jones and retired Army Colonel Lance Taylor.

In this episode, we dive into a question that we wondered about:

Why didn’t our kids follow us into military service?

We explore:

•What shaped our children’s views on the military and how our careers influenced that

•Whether we encouraged or discouraged them from joining

•What “breaking the cycle” really means in a military family

•The balance between legacy, personal choice, and generational change

•How we feel about their decisions and what it says about our values as veterans and fathers

This one’s about identity, legacy, and how military service affects more than just the one who wears the uniform.
