Phantom Soldier Turns Veteran Stories Into Songs
A nonprofit storytelling project invites veterans to submit personal service stories, then develops them into songs for approval before release.
Why it surfaced

Its debut five-song EP is openly AI-assisted, while any music income is intended for veteran suicide prevention and no veteran is charged.
