The WWII Battle of Tarawa was a 76-hour key battle in America’s Central Pacific Campaign. Clay Bonnyman Evans’ grandfather, Alexander “Sandy” Bonnyman Jr., was a United States Marine Corps officer who was killed in action on Betio, in Tarawa Atoll in the Gilbert Islands during World War II. A combat engineer, he posthumously received the Medal of Honor, the Purple Heart and other awards. Sandy Bonnyman’s bones lay buried under the sand of Tarawa for over 70 years. We are rebroadcasting an interview with his grandson, who shares the journey to bring Sandy Bonnyman home.

Yes, we are experiencing a drought. Droughts in Colorado are nothing new, so it would be great if PBIs would store water for a non-rainy day.

Are signs speech? In 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Highway Beautification Act.

Producer Luke and Producer Joe continue our book discussion of Karl Marx’s The Communist Manifesto. Plus we’ll talk with RE/MAX Realtor Karen Levine.
