In keeping with a God bless the Keg Publishing LLC tradition, our host, Mr. Paul John Hausleben, takes time out of his holiday schedule to slip into the PJH Writing Command Center and record a special holiday podcast for Memorial Day 2026.

In this special episode, PJH details the true meaning of the holiday, some background on it, some insight into the proper flying of the American flag for the holiday and relates other aspects of the holiday to his listeners.

Then, in a special moment, Paulie does what he does best, and that is tell stories! For the holiday, Paulie reads one of his most favorite military stories, a flash fiction piece he wrote back in 2017, “The Drill Instructor.”

In doing so, PJH captures the essence of the holiday of Memorial Day and the commitment, the sacrifice, and the dedication of our beloved servicepersons and members of the Armed Forces. And the honor of those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.

Don’t miss Paulie at his best, for this special holiday podcast episode.
