Ep. 341: The Fog of War and Humanity with Angel Flores (Part 2)
In this deeply revealing continuation of Angel Flores’ story, host Richard Acritelli guides listeners into the emotional terrain that follows a Marine long after the battlefield goes quiet.
In Part 2, Angel reflects on the lasting impact of his deployment to Iraq—the brotherhood that sustains him, the silence many veterans carry, and the often invisible battles that follow them home. He opens up about returning from war, the struggle to drive without reliving the desert, and the unexpected healing found in helping other service members as they deploy and return.
Angel also speaks candidly about veteran mental health, the stigma around seeking help, and the heartbreaking reality of losing fellow Marines to suicide. His honesty cuts through the noise and sheds light on why community, conversation, and compassion remain critical lifelines for those who served.
This is an unfiltered look at life after war—raw, real, and profoundly human.
A must-listen for anyone who wants to understand the cost of service and the strength it takes to keep moving forward.
Part 3 will continue the conversation.
