June 23, 2024: Camp Liberty & Vietnam War Navy Corpsmen
Listen in for a feature on Camp Liberty
Camp Liberty is a local Michigan nonprofit that provides access to outdoor recreation for Veterans and their families. They’re hosting fundraiser on June 29th, the Car & Motorcycle Show & Family Picnic with live music, lunch, and activities for all ages.
We also hear from Vietnam Veteran Bill Sheehan, author of “Together We Served,” and a storyteller from his book, Dan Thompson.
Sheehan and Thompson served as Navy Corpsmen in the Vietnam War. Sheehan’s book is a collection of stories from combat Navy Hospital Corpsmen serving in the jungles of Vietnam. Sometimes difficult to talk about, but always heart wrenching, these stories are true and a reminder of the consequences of a war that has initiated PTS, various cancers and emotional trauma that they still battle.
