Stars of the new Jimmy Stewart movie on his service and “It’s a Wonderful Life” - Tango Alpha Lima

Jimmy Stewart flew 20 combat missions in World War II, stayed in the Air Force Reserve until 1968 and retired as a brigadier general. He never talked about it. In "Jimmy" the new biopic opening nationwide on Nov. 6, that story takes center stage. Two stars of the film, Kara Killmer (Chicago Fire) and Julian Works (9-1-1: Lone Star), talk about how Stewart’s service shaped his return to Hollywood and "It’s a Wonderful Life," the silent generation and World War II veterans, and the family stories the cast uncovered while making the film.  Also in this episode Hosts Adam and Stacy reflect on what Veterans Day means to them and what meaningful recognition looks like beyond Nov. 11.
