"The Weslaco Eight: A Snapshot in Time with Andrew Booher"
This week on What's The Scuttlebutt, Don and Dennis sit down with historian and storyteller Andrew Booher to explore the compelling tale of a remarkable group of high school students known as The Weslaco Eight—a group of young men from Weslaco, Texas, who would go on to serve with distinction during World War II. These eight friends exemplified duty, courage, and brotherhood as they left their small town to answer the call of service. Among them was one individual who became world-famous—not for a lifelong military career, but because of a snapshot in time that would go on to symbolize an entire generation's sacrifice. Andrew takes us through his ongoing research and presentation on the group, which he is currently transforming into a book. We dive into the inspiration behind his work, the incredible true stories he’s uncovered, and the legacy of these young men who exemplified the spirit of the Greatest Generation. Don’t miss this powerful conversation about history, heroism, and the enduring impact of a single photograph.
