“Echoes of Valor: The Life and Mission of David Burnell” is a powerful spoken word narrative tracing the extraordinary life of a modern warrior. From elite U.S. Air Force missions and rescue dives beneath frozen lakes, to leading post-earthquake security in Haiti and guiding humanitarian operations in Burma and Japan, David Burnell has lived where most only imagine.
This ballad isn’t a résumé—it’s a reckoning.It’s the story of a man who fought in darkness, brought light to crisis zones, taught daughters to fight back, and trained soldiers to stay alive. It’s about filmmaking as memorial, teaching as healing, and leadership forged in the fire of loss.
For anyone who has served, survived, or sought purpose in pain—this is for you.These are the echoes of valor that refuse to fade.
