Chat 62 is where the stories of service come to life. What started as a podcast for those who served at the PAC has grown into a forum for veterans from all branches. From the streets of Midway Drive to bases around the globe, we dive into the unfiltered experiences of military life, the transition to civilian life, and the mental health battles that follow. Through raw conversations, hard-earned lessons, and dark-humored camaraderie, Chat 62 keeps the brotherhood—and sisterhood—alive. This is your forum to reflect, reconnect, and remember: once you’ve served, you’re always part of the crew.
