Medal of Honor recipient Clint Romesha joins the Hometown Hero Outdoors Podcast for a powerful conversation that spans generations of service, sacrifice, and resilience. In Part 1 of this two-part series, Clint shares gripping accounts from Iraq and Afghanistan, including the brutal battle at Combat Outpost Keating — a defining moment that earned him the nation’s highest military honor.
We journey through a family legacy of military service, beginning with Clint’s grandfather — a WWII combat engineer who left behind a rodeo dream to fight at Normandy and the Battle of the Bulge. From Vietnam to the modern battlefield, the Romesha family’s story is one of brotherhood, sacrifice, and a shared sense of duty.
Clint reflects on leadership under fire, life after the military, and how youth sports are shaping the next generation. This episode offers raw, firsthand insight into the emotional toll of war and the bonds that hold warriors together — long after the smoke clears.
