Listeners hear a ground-level narrative of the assault on Hill 60, the larger campaign that made this ridge so important, and the split-second decisions that turned one farm boy from Nebraska into a Medal of Honor recipient. The episode reflects on leadership, responsibility, and sacrifice in combat. Beyond the Call is the Monday feature of Dispatch: U.S. Military History Magazine, and the podcast is developed by Trackpads.com.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/DTcPOjfQmhqNXIEgIO0LxQo9jtX1rQ5snfqWmfq4SfM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82NzJi/OTIxZTAzMTE2NTMw/NTQ5M2VjMWY0NDI1/NjQ4OC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
