Description
A TIME FOR HONOR: STORIES FROM VIETNAM weaves together interviews with veterans with comments from scholars and eyewitness accounts to present a cross-sectional view of the war from those who served and those on the homefront. Five stories — all of which occur in 1968 — provide a unique and compelling view of America and its involvement in Vietnam. Longtime radio news director Zona B. Davis wrote thousands of letters to soldiers in Vietnam hungry for the sights, sounds and smells of home. The program also features the candid reminiscences of Dan McKinney, who was trapped in one of the worst ambushes of the war; Betty Bailey, an Army nurse in Vietnam; Sammy L. Davis, who was ridiculed for his patriotism after receiving the Congressional Medal of Honor; Arthur Bates, a Marine serving in Khe Sanh during the war's most famous siege and Richard Jaehne, who shipped out to Vietnam in 1969 as a 22-year-old Marine rifle platoon commander. Former U.S. Secretary of Defense William Cohen and historians Chester Pach and Ronald Spector offer their recollections and analysis of the war. |
