In honor of Veteran's Day, I am using a recording I made several years ago for an Oral History class. The interview, recorded on cassette, was with Steve Haas. Mr. Haas is a Vietnam Veteran, and was kind of enough to help me with the project at the last minute. I had originally intended to interview my Uncle David, a WWII Veteran, but he felt uneasy about telling his story. I felt those memories were sacred and I did not press the issue. Thankfully Steve saved the day and spent 2 hours with me, telling me stories I have never forgotten. I would like to thank Steve again for his help and for service. Please excuse the sound quality of the tape.
The song I used for the intro and end are the 1816 version of "The Star Spangled Banner" courtesy of A-M Classical, and can be found at www.amclassical.com
