He’s battle tested. He’s a proven leader. And his loyalty to his country, family, and alma mater is a clarion call in his life. Brigadier General Todd Fogle of the United States Air Force, for his service to our country, was recently awarded the distinguished 2024 “Alumnus of the Year” honor by Cedarville University.

His rise to Brigadier General, in Fogle’s words, is the result of God’s blessings in his life, the investment of key leaders at Cedarville University during his college years, and the support from his wife of 32 years, Johanna.

In this podcast, Fogle recalls with gratitude how Dick Walker invested in his life and always encouraged him to “stay the course.” Then there’s Jim Cato, who took an inquisitive ROTC student to the Dove Awards in Nashville, Tennessee, and together developed action plans and processes that have guided the Swordbearers and Heartsong Ministries teams for decades.

These investments in his life were pivotal to his military success. They also were helpful during tension-filled moments in combat, including when his plane was engaged in a lengthy gun battle with enemy fire that blanketed his plane with bullet holes.

Throughout his life, General Fogle has been blessed by God and has exemplified virtue through his love, leadership, and loyalty. Join us on this week's episode of the Cedarville Stories podcast as Brig. Gen. Fogle recounts his extraordinary journey and invites you to soar alongside him.
