On this episode of The Stramaglio Show, Mike Stramaglio is joined by Medal of Honor recipient James “Doc” McCloughan and his associate Adrian Kozakov for a powerful conversation on service, sacrifice, and legacy.
Doc shares the remarkable story behind receiving the Medal of Honor nearly five decades after his heroic actions as a combat medic in Vietnam. Rather than focusing on recognition, he centers the moment on his fellow soldiers, the lives lost, and the responsibility that comes with surviving. His reflections reveal a lifelong commitment to humility, teaching, and preparing others to face their own challenges with courage.
Adrian expands the conversation to the future, highlighting the importance of preserving the values of the Congressional Medal of Honor through education, leadership, and corporate support. Together, they issue a clear call to action for leaders to help carry these values forward for generations to come.
