Chuck VanVoorhis honored in TV Program

The Japanese Broadcasting Company from New York City came to Marion on April 23  to interview and film Chuck VanVoorhis.

They interviewed him about the Vietnam War and how his experiences affected him then and through the years to follow. This broadcast is the equivalent of our 60 Minutes program.

Also, a part of the program included the story of Kim Phuc Phan Thi who at a young age was known as the Napalm Girl. The story explained the trauma and experiences from a civilian perspective and a Marine’s perspective. The episode was not be aired in the US, however, it was shared with our congregation.

We will pass that on to anyone who is interested! Chuck’s Vietnam War Experience traveling museum will be May 10-11 at the American Legion on Olney Avenue.
