My Life, My Story #5: Bibiana: A teenage soldier

In this episode of our podcast, you’ll meet Bibiana. Bibiana was a small, elderly woman in the hospital when she was interviewed for this story. But as we like to say about the Veterans we interview, “You never know who’s behind that door.” Her story truly astounded us, and we’re glad to preserve it here.
