027: Gold Star Daughter Jen Amos Returns to the Military Community 20+ Years Later After Losing Her Father

Jen Amos, Gold Star Daughter, Veteran Spouse, and Host of Holding Down the Fort, shares how creating this podcast show has become one of many ways she's reconnected with the military community 20+ years after unexpectedly losing her father while he was in active duty. Her hopes for the podcast are to make the lives of active duty military spouse’s life easier by curating knowledge, resources, and relevant stories so they can continue to make confident and informed decisions for their family.

This show is dedicated to Jen's father, Alfonso Apdal Amos (RIP 1998), and to Gold Star Families everywhere.
