Welcome to Stars of Sacrifice: WWII—the official podcast of Stories Behind the Stars.
More than 421,000 Americans lost their lives in World War II. Every one of them had a story worth saving—and worth sharing.


When a serviceman or servicewoman was killed in action, their family was presented with a banner bearing a single gold star. Stories Behind the Stars was created to ensure those stars are never forgotten by building one central digital home for the stories of the more than 421,000 Americans who gave their lives in service to our nation.


This national effort—researched, written, and financially supported by people who believe the fallen must be remembered—exists to ensure future generations can learn about the Americans who paid the ultimate price for freedoms we too often take for granted.


Stories Behind the Stars partners with genealogy and historical organizations across the country. Through Stars of Sacrifice: WWII podcast, we bring these stories to life on an audio platform—reaching younger generations, those who are able to dream because of the brave.

Press play, and step into the stories of those whose courage shaped the world we live in today.

    On Christmas Day, December 25, 1944, Lt Dean Paul
    Trigonides, the son of Greek immigrants prepared for yet another combat mission. While families at home gathered around Christmas trees and holiday tables, airmen in France climbed into their aircraft to continue the fight.

    The aircraft never made it to its target.
    More than 421,000 Americans lost their lives during World War II — but they were never just numbers. They were sons and daughters, husbands and wives, brothers, sisters, friends, and neighbors… each one the center of someone’s world. Behind every name is a story, and behind every loss, a family forever marked by a gold star.
    This podcast exists to tell those stories — to remember who they were, how they lived, and what they sacrificed. Because when we preserve their memories and honor their service, we ensure that the true cost of freedom is never forgotten.
