Memorials often tell us more about their creators than what or whom they memorialize. This Memorial Day episode of BackStory , explores the idea of national remembrance. Looking at some of our country’s most iconic monuments, the History Guys ask what — and whom — Americans choose to remember and how.

Listen Monday May 25 at 7 p.m.  to We’ve Never Been the Same.

Over the course of five years, Adam Piore gathered the stories of the surviving members of Delta Company, a Vietnam-era paratrooper unit; Jay Allison joined him for the last two years when it turned from a book into a radio story.  Adam Piore became dedicated to this group of guys and to their common story of trauma, guilt, courage, heartbreak, and reunion.
