Everything Auburn Podcast: Everything Veteran Support with Paul Esposito and Jeff Dyal
The Veterans Resource Center (VRC) and its staff serve a very important mission on Auburn University’s campus. Led by retired U.S. Navy Capt. Paul “Puck” Esposito, a 30-year veteran and aviator, the VRC provides valuable resources, advocacy and outreach to Auburn’s student veterans. Having spent 25 years in service to our country, retired U.S. Marine Corps Major Jeff Dyal is VRC's Campus & Community Events Coordinator. He is instrumental in guiding veteran students and their families through programs and services designed to help them succeed in their educational and career endeavors. On this special Memorial Day edition of the "Everything Auburn" Podcast, we sit down with Esposito and Dyal to talk about their military journeys and learn what Memorial Day means to them as the VRC prepares to pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation.
