Summary
0:01:00 NC veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan reflects on 25th anniversary of September 11th attacks Tomorrow is a sobering day - the 25th anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks in the United States that killed nearly three thousand people. The subsequent military operation in Afghanistan lasted 20 years, while the concurrent operation in Iraq lasted nine years. That left more than four million veterans in the United States who served after 9/11. Emiliano Enea is one of them. He is a veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan as a member of the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg. He joins Jeff Tiberii to share his story and talk about what the anniversary means to him as a veteran. Emiliano Enea , Vice President, Brothers & Sisters Like These; Outreach Coordinator for the Buncombe County Veterans Council 0:33:00 The Hopscotch Music Festival is back, but is it back on track? The sounds of the Hopscotch Music Festival will take over downtown Raleigh from September 10-12. Leoneda and Jeff talk with two music reporters about the history of the festival, how it’s changed in recent years, the response to the festival’s lineup and what they’ll be looking out for this weekend.
