Books and Speakers Bureau in Local Schools:
In 2005 VVA Chapter 102 purchased 13 copies of "NAM, A Photographic
History" by Leo J. Daugherty and Gregory Louis Mattson. In an effort to contribute to the education of our students, we
have presented a copy to each school we have visited. At these opportunities, Chapter
102 members have talked about their experiences during the Viet Nam War and done their best to answer student questions
about their experiences while in country.
