Welcome to The Scuttlebutt, a weekly pre-recorded program presented by The Veterans Breakfast Club. “Scuttlebutt” is a military term (specifically Navy) for talk or gossip around the watercooler below decks. And this is what our program is all about: we have informed conversations about the military experience, past and present. We want to bridge the divide between those who serve and those who don’t. We look at headlines, we tackle important topics, and we ask questions. Join us on this journey of spreading the Scuttlebutt!

Joining The Scuttlebutt for our season four finale is Gold Star Wife, Krista Anderson. After losing her husband, Green Beret, Staff Sgt. Michael Simpson in 2013, Krista committed herself to helping military families fill their "life binders" and prepare for anything. One of her many roles is as a Military Spouse Ambassador for Army Emergency Relief. AER, the official non-profit of the U.S. Army recently teamed up with the National Military Family Association to provide funding for child care for military families through their joint Child Care Fee Relief Program. Krista joins us to tell her story, honor Michael, and talk about the incredible work being done by AER and NMFA. An inspiring story not to be missed.
