VETERAN’S COMMUNITY PROJECT: RESTORING HONOR. Brandon Mixon

by

One combat veteran, Brandonn Mixon, and his five buddies, are changing the lives of homeless ex-servicemen and woman across the country.

Mojave Beach Productions’ Fourth of July Podcast Excursion with veteran of the war in Afghanistan, Brandon Mixon, and host Esther Luttrell. When Mixon’s hopes of becoming a career military man were shattered by a medical discharge at age 22, the 2-year battle with severe depression and thoughts of suicide gave way to a determination to see that homeless vets are treated with the honor and respect they so richly deserve. This is the story of how Mixon and five of his veteran buddies are changing the lives of former servicemen and woman, living in parks and under bridges, by building beautiful tiny house communities across the nation. In creating the privately funded Veterans Community Project, these young men have become heroes in every sense of the word. Esther Luttrell produced. Patrick McGranahan was the post-production supervisor.

Running Time: 46:25.

The U.S. Marine Band’s March 2009 performance of “The Stars and Stripes Forever”, performed in the John Philip Sousa Band Hall at Marine Barracks, Washington, DC, brings the program to a stirring close.
