Very few ace fighter pilots are still alive, so a Denver photographer rushed to take their pictures. We hear some of their stories, including one from a graduate from the Air Force Academy who still wonders why he survived as a pilot in Vietnam while his good friend didn't.

And, hiking through the woods back home, an Afghanistan veteran had a flashback that inspired him to write about his service.
