Give it a listen!
Then, Tennesseans Charles and James Allison visit with Fisher about their two uncles who both served in the Navy and both wound up on the USS Arizona. Both were killed that fateful day of December 7, 1941. One of the men wrote a letter home just two months before the attack that was only recently found. It's content was a shock to the family. Hear all about it!
Then DNA pioneer Dr. Scott Woodward joins Fisher to talk about the history of DNA ancestral research and how today's techniques of matching populations around the world began. It will give you a real sense of how far we've come in just a decade and a half.
