What happens when you combine patriotism, loss, grit, and great country vocals?
Ryan Weaver: former U.S. Army Black Hawk pilot turned country music artist.
Today he joins Aaron Hale to talk about brotherhood, loss, honoring heroes, and the pursuit of purpose–along with some inside secrets from the country music industry.
